Summary

Once upon a time, in a ruined world replete with flesh-melting oil geysers, poisonous sludge, and tornadoes of suffocating plastic, a boy meets a girl. Maceo has never encountered anyone like Mezzy before. In fact, he's never met anyone at all, having grown up alone in his tower in the (radioactive) sea. But when the wasteland-hardened Mezzy stumbles upon his haven, Maceo chooses to accompany her into the brutal, barren wilds, all the while dreaming up inventions for a better tomorrow. As Mezzy wrestles with the secrets of her past (and a relentless stream of organ-devouring rats), the unlikely pair discovers the beauty and wonder shimmering amidst the rot and decay at the end of the worldA Post-Apocalyptic Fable Told In Three Parts For Fans of Saga! In this decades spanning post-apocalyptic tale, Maceo and Mezzy have never met anyone like each other, and they'll need all the help they can get to survive a planet ravaged by environmental catastrophe. "Love in the Wasteland" kicks off the first arc of this epic trilogy that spans a lifetime as the dark mysteries of a ruined world and their own stark differences tear at the threads holding Mezzy and Maceo together. As they endure the horrors of plastic tornadoes and frozen sludge, Maceo proves to be more than just a burden, and they make an unlikely connection. But to their peril... they might not be as alone as they thought... New York Times bestselling, Eisner and Harvey Award-winning writer Jason Aaron (Thor, The Avengers, Southern Bastards) launches his most ambitious original series to date with three distinct artistic partners - Eisner Award-winning artist Alexandre Tefenkgi (The Good Asian), acclaimed artists Leila del Duca (Wonder Woman: Tempest Tossed, Sleepless), and Nick Dragotta (East of West, Ghost Cage) - to take on a vision of the end of the world that's brutal and nostalgic, whimsical and grounded... and ultimately, timeless.
