About the series
In the near-future world of Great Pacific, a disinherited oil heir stumbles upon a massive floating continent of plastic trash in the Pacific Ocean and declares it his own sovereign nation. This 18-issue Image Comics series from 2012–2014, written by Joe Harris and illustrated by Martín Morazzo, blends environmental satire with a gritty, frontier-style adventure. It stands out for its darkly inventive premise—treating humanity’s pollution as the raw material for a new, troubled society—and for Morazzo’s stark, expressive visuals that bring this grimly plausible future to life.
