So what happens when the Apocalypse occurs and only about 1% of everyone on earth survived. Well, of course, the end of days. Marvel and Steven King team up again with The Stand.
Captain Trips is the first book. It has the origin story of how this deadly virus spread and within months quickly dwindled the US population. With the virus swiftly moving across the country people begin to worry. Military included. Of course, the military created this strain of super flu know as “Project Blue”. As famine and a deathly cause of the sniffles roam; some people find themselves immune. To wander from place to place knowing everyone around you is dead, but also just expecting for someone to jump out from somewhere. Endless paranoia.
In this case the paranoia is well placed. “The Walking Man” is silently looking for the survivors. In some way he’s the devil, but he is definitely mortal, or so I hope. He is looking into the darkness for people like him to end it all. Kind of like a war, except you know, about good and evil. So yes, to start a war of epic proportions.
