Influenca

By Jade LFT Peters | Paperback

Two years ago, the apocalypse started for the seventh time.

As the number of zombies rise, so do the ranks of influencas: professional zombie hunters who post their lives online. When Dodie and Beatriz, the accidental founders of the movement, are trapped in their bunker by a persistent horde, what else is there to do but take a romantic vacation?

A graphic novel told through the lens of interviews, social media posts, and nostalgic reminiscing, Influenca is a glimpse into a day at the end of the world, past and present, and what life looks like when the apocalypse becomes predictable.

Originally published as part of the 2022 ShortBox Comics Fair.

About the Author

Jade's work is influenced by a lifelong fear of the apocalypse, obsessively watching Kiki's Delivery Service as a toddler, and Treehouse of Horror III (specifically the Pet Semetary part). When not worrying about the end of the world, Jade can be found watching videos about terrariums or crying at the deep sea Blue Planet episode for the millionth time.
