In a near future, a few years after the end of the Z virus epidemic that turned many humans into zombies, survivors have been forced to move on and radically change their way of life. The plan is called Jericho Solution: the survivors live in self-sufficient and isolated fortressed settlements that are impossible to get into or leave. Beyond the walls: the desert, rubble of war, and dangerous wandering zombies. In the city, life seems to go on as usual. However, along the perimeter of the walls, hundreds of cannons point at the desert, ready to open fire on whichever creature may appear on the sand dunes. This isolation forces each settlement to establish an autonomous political, legislative and military power, subject to no vigilance: the enormous repressive machine monitoring the city SO2 is ruled by governor Zeno. Within this context, live a varied group of kids, fascinated by punk music and the rebellious way of life of the past, a legacy from their parents’ music albums and stories. They challenge the authoritarian regime and believe that this intimidating atmosphere is instrumental in population control. These romantic saboteurs, considered as terrorists, will have to face the repression to seek the truth. Is Zeno actually protecting his people or did he simply fuel these fears in order to justify his tyranny?

@deanhsieh: ahaha i always look at your page count too:D in order to see if i'm going too slow or too fast:)

@ Dood: thanx for the patience:)
@ Bryy: thanx!
@ Sheldon: It's nice to see that somebody apreciate that:D maybe it would have been clever to show it during the competition, but i really wanted to take my time, not to spoil everything in 8 screens...
@ Tyler: Glad to hear it, new readers are always welcome:)!
Nice new batch of pages. This comic didn't grab me during it's successful competition run, but I've got an idea where you're going with the story now, and am intrigued. I'll continue to check it out.
DUDE, EF-YOU-CEE-KAY YEAH.

You know what i love most about this, you didn't need to show screen 12 to win. You let it flow with what you had and let us have it when you wanted to give it. I can't wait to see this updated.

Ah, now there's the shot we've been waiting for! Screen 12 really puts things in perspective.

congratulations!
After reading your interview with Liz, I came back and read this again. It makes more sense to me now, for some reason. Looking forward to seeing where it goes!
..
Also, the lyrics for the music really disrupts the flow of the storytelling... So much that upon re-reading, I just ignored them which made it so much better for me. Hopefully they're not TOO important. ;o)
Congrats on the win. Very clean comic, but I would like to see some zombies. There will be some zombies right? Can't wait! SI is awesome. Keep it up.
congrats on the win!
Congratulations!!!
Congratulations!
PS: I SWEAR, i'll try to do my best not to turn Safe inside in the usual zombie comic:)))
Wow it's really a Great emotion. I'd like to thank everybody, people who voted for SI but also who stopped by, commented, reviewed, criticized, gave suggestions, critics, it's really exciting to face such a big audience interested in comics. Of course I'm happy and I'm really grateful for this huge unexpected support by those who already knew my work, but this month's competition IMHO was full of awesome comics,i hope we'll soon see new comics by those authors (especially Maladroits and Laser Dragons, but almost all!)..
Now, since in Italy it's already 7:30 PM, I'll go to celebrate:)

PER GLI ITALIANI: aho grazie a tutti davero è stata una cosa molto rincuorante vedere così tanto supporto. Nei prossimi giorni si scoglierà il nodo su dove offrirò sto cenone di ringraziamento:) Daje!!!!!!!!!!!!
Félicitations Z.! J'attends avec impatience la suite, et ne change rien à ton style, la composition est vraiment réussie, sans parler de la qualité du dessin et des petits détails marrants cachés. Bravo!
Congratulations! Welcome to the Zuda crew. :)
