The XII #1

Caleb is a father of five, trying his best to provide for his family on a plot of land that - after fifteen years - is starting to give out. But when a group of bandits rob Caleb of his precious crops, he is forced to head out onto the barren Dead Roads towards a city he'd hope never to return to.

The XII is a post-apocalyptic tale that chronicles the building of a true metropolis in the ruins of Chicago. The XII are a clandestine group of killers, with methods both ruthless and efficient. While their tactics may be brutal, they alone are turning the cogs of progress in a world of fallow fields and short, brutal lives.
