In the not so distant future, a plague will ravage America. People will band together to survive, and others will find wicked ways to survive. There is a lot going on in Seekers. The story changes between current events and the past that led to the fall of America. The back and forth is done quite well. I didn’t have a problem keeping up with the story, never a confusing part of the story.

I would love to see a zombie Superman flying, though.
