The first action packed issue of Arise features Thanatos, a lone conspiracy theorist, who believes one day the world will be overrun with zombies. He's trained his whole life for that day, even though most people view him as crazy. One day, while at work, his worst fears come true! Now he and an orphaned little girl, Dinah, must make it through a zombie ridden city and survive! Written by Jay Reiter, art by Vince Locke
