Hard Boiled Neo-Noir
In the finest film noir traditions, DeadTown follows a classic hard boiled anti-hero set in a post apocalyptic near future overrun by Zombies!
Those with the means live "Upstairs", in skyscrapers specially designed to separate them from the infested street level; everyone else is "Downstairs". The survivors struggle to carve out a life with the constant threat of the undead hanging over them.
Visually inspired by the rich black and white style of films like Touch of Evil and the Maltese Falcon, DeadTown combines film noir with the zombie horror genre, in an edgy re-imagining of the hard boiled thriller.

The FUTURE of Comic Books
DEADTOWN is unprecedented in this modern age and takes comic books to a realm that has yet to be experienced. Within its tap format, the reader feels so immersed itβs almost as if they control the action. Not to mention a storyline which hooks you at the cold open with heart, psychology, and thrill. A neo-noir take on a classic zombie sequence, DEADTOWN pulls no punches and cinematically revolutionizes the way we indulge in graphic novels.
