“Death Ratio’d,” the latest one-shot comic by Mark Russell, Laci, and Marko Lesko presents a gripping, satirical vision of the future. When Arnold awakens from his coma into a dystopian future ruled by the merciless hand of social media, he quickly learns that in this new world, popularity isn’t everything, it’s the only thing. Garnering likes and upvotes can lead to unparalleled heights of fame and fortune. However, the stakes are lethally high – if your social approval ratio gets too low, one “thumbs down” could mean death, and trigger the bomb collar locked around each citizen’s neck. Arnold, bewildered and running on his last ‘Like,’ must learn to navigate this perilous social landscape, or escape it. “Death Ratio’d” is a darkly comedic exploration of our social media-obsessed society, where the line between virtual approval and real-world survival blurs.

There’s just one thing Bob doesn’t know: One of his current guests is an undercover cop—and she’s carrying a concealed gun. Collects RUMPUS ROOM #1–5.

The Ring meets Needful Things in DEADBOX, a supernatural horror tale where small-town life, the darkest of secrets, and a cursed entertainment-in-a-box will be the death of everyone.

YOU ARE WHAT YOU WATCH…

WELCOME TO LOST TURKEY! A town where the main source of entertainment is a cursed DVD machine that seems to know more about the fate of its citizens than they do.

When a resident of Lost Turkey walks into the Stop n’Shop Convenience/Gas, they grab a bite and a gab with Penny, who keeps the business running while her father is fading away (literally). Trapped in the box of horrors that make up everyday existence, Penny and the other residents find escape in the only entertainment in town: a DVD rental box that holds the town’s darkest secrets hidden within its depths – and the movies the residents rent. Where their fates are framed within the films they choose, and where they may be able to find a way out – or not. Lost Turkey: a small town where opportunities, dreams, and entertainment are limited, but where secrets – nightmares – are limitless.

Collects the entire five-issue series!
