Rebekah's Book - Orphan Age from AFTERSHOCK COMICSWriter: Ted AndersonArtist: Nuno Plati One day all the adults died, all over the world, at the same time.Now it's twenty years later, and the children - all grown up - are still rebuilding the world. Horses and caravans are the only thin lines connecting tiny, scattered settlements - little sparks in the great dark night. Gasoline is gone, phones long-dead, television a memory. The only power in America is the New Church, the religion of the angry children, that blames the destruction of the old world on the dead adults.                    In the settlement of Dallastown, a stranger comes riding in one day, telling a story of escape from the New Church's unstoppable Firemen. The Church is on the march, and the world might burn again - and the only hope might be a scared teenage girl, a gunslinger keeping his secrets, and a woman of few words and long knives. Welcome to the Orphan Age.                       Joe's Book - Faithless from BOOM! STUDIOS                                           Writer: Brian Azzarello Artist: Maria Llovet Faith. Sex. The Devil. Faith likes to dabble with magic. Her friends think it's cute-and not just a little off-putting, but it's part of her charm and her warped search for purpose in a world that makes too much sense. But she's a true believer and knows there is a power within her reach. She's right, of course. It just took a while for that magic, that temptation, that unknowable thing to find her... In short--Faith is bored as hell. And Hell has noticed.                           Brian's Book - Fairlady from IMAGE COMICS                 Writer: Brian SchirmerArtist: Claudia BalboniEvery fantasy epic ends with a war.
