Dan Abnett and Richard Elson’s - Kingdom Series

Dork Note: I just finished reading the collected volumes of Dan Abnett and Richard Elson’s Kingdom - The Promise Land and The Call of The Wild and I quite enjoyed it. I hope we see a third volume in print much sooner then later.

Interview with Dan Abnett on Kingdom

Fan Review at Good Reads: KINGDOM is a recent addition to the 2000 AD stable that is the first new strip to really kick me in the head since the short-lived, late, lamented and hilarious BIG DAVE back in 1993. Written by Dan Abnett and beautifully illustrated by Richard Elson, KINGDOM's a simple and virtually all-action series about survival and savage fighting whose simplicity is wholly appropos since it chronicles the post-apocalyptic adventures of a hero who's the result of genetic engineering program that sought to create super-soldiers from dogs. Canine-derived soldier Gene the Hackman leads his pack through a future wilderness, following the programmed orders of the unseen "Masters," and their task is to keep the Masters' "lawn" — meaning the entire landscape — free from the marauding hordes of "Them," a ravenous and implacable horde of advanced insectoid life forms.
