The world suddenly runs out of gasoline. See the crippling effects on society as a group of strangers witness the coming apocalypse.

Tanked is a full-color 24-page comic book. This issue is the first in a six issue series. This project is to fund the final stages of issue one and get it off to the printer.

Tanked takes place 45 days in the future when the world has abruptly run out of gasoline. The story follows three characters as they struggle to cope with a burgeoning apocalypse in small town USA.

Tanked is unique in that you see regular people cope with the apocalypse as it happens. You aren’t coming into the fictional world 20 or 30 years after the nukes have gone off or after the zombies have risen from their graves. I’ve made the characters as real as possible, to make them as much like you, the reader, to convey the most shock.

Good art costs money. Lettering costs money. Printers cost money. I’ve paid for most of the production up to this point. With the comic almost done, I’m looking for help with the expense of printing and further production costs.

Any additional money will be used for art in Issue #2, due out sometime in the spring of next year.
