About the series
In this two-issue miniseries from Ablaze Publishing (2021–2022), a desperate scientist's experimental treatment for a deadly pandemic inadvertently creates a new breed of intelligent, cannibalistic beings. The story follows the fragile coexistence between the surviving human population and these "Cruelers," as both species struggle for resources and survival in a world forever changed. Writer and artist Tsutomu Takahashi brings his distinctive, visceral style to this compact, high-concept horror tale that explores the dark edges of human nature and the unintended consequences of playing god.
