The greatest city in the world lies blanketed in ice and snow. There are nolights on Broadway, no taxis clogging the streets and the Empire State standslike a frozen tombstone blanketing a
dead metropolis in its shadow. These arethe Popsicle Fields...a labyrinth of New York streets littered with the frozenundead. This is 1970, two years since the rise of the cannibalistic dead.
Thisis ’68: LAST RITES, the climactic sixth volume in the epic, award-winningmilitary/horror comics series that brings all branching storylines to a close.From the fortified Flatiron
Building, where a band of survivors holds onto lifewith a white-knuckled grip, to the battle-torn streets of Chinatown where thestiffening dead rise from subways filled with starving rats, an
island off theJersey coast where living horrors feast on human flesh...to the steaming junglesof Vietnam, where a hero will fall only to spawn an army of masked avengers whofind retribution
in his legend and a battle cry in his name. Collected here forthe first time, this volume includes all four issues of the series finale alongwith the hard-hitting one shot: JUNGLE JIM: GUTS
‘N GLORY, with tons ofextras including a cover gallery, script notes and behind the scenes extrasavailable nowhere else!
From writer MARK KIDWELL and artists JEFF ZORNOWand JAY FOTOS, ’68: LAST RITES closes the curtain on the saga of the riseof the living dead in the age of Aquarius and unleashes a plague of
the hungrydead on a generation of the lost!
