Welcome to the Edge of Extinction website.
Edge of Extinction is a zombie comic created by myself, Baden James Mellonie and Paul Peart-Smith. It all started back in 2009, when i was asked by Berserker Comics to come up with a concept to tie into the Alan Grant and Simon Bisley comic, The Dead :Kingdom of Flies. Andy and Ryan Brown wanted me to develop the concept further and I approached Paul Peart-Smith, the 2000AD artist in the hope that he would come onboard. Paul agreed and Edge of Extinction was born.
Edge of Extinction is a zombie horror story. The difference being that, like The Dead: Kingdom of Flies, it is set in England. American zombie comics and film have always relied on the right to bear arms to support the characters fight for survival. I wanted to take that away. I wanted to strip the fight for survival back to it's origins. Humanity at it's most primitve.
After Berserker Comics ceased publishing new titles, Paul and myself have taken Edge of Extinction to a variety of publishers, and found ourselves frustrated at the industry's inability to offer a deal to suit our needs. The first four issues are written, we have finished pages of art and and a host of talent have contributed pin-ups to the book. So we are going to publish it ourselves, using Kickstarter and donations from you, friends, family and fans.
Cheers for your support
