Synopses & Reviews
Six years ago, twelve psychic children accidentally used their powers to flood the world. Now they attempt to rebuild society and defend London's Whitechapel survivors from one of their own.
Twenty-three years ago, twelve strange children were born in England at exactly the same moment. Six years ago, the world ended. Today, eleven strange 23-year-olds live in and defend Whitechapel, maybe the last real settlement in flooded London. Fearing the return of an old enemy from beyond their borders, the Freakangels discover that their latest threat comes from inside their ranks, as one of their own breaks the most sacred rule -- never to violate the mind of a person under their protection. Gunplay and a telekinetic confrontation ensue, distracting the group... and leading to a face-to-face confrontation with Mark, the exiled Freakangel who seeks bloody retribution. The third chapter in award-winning author Warren Ellis' post-apocalyptic web comic series!
Synopsis
Twenty-three years ago, twelve strange children were born in England at exactly the same moment. Six year later, the world ended. Today, eleven strange 23-year-olds are living in and defending Whitechapel, maybe the last real settlement in flooded London. They've made a new friend, and together they successfully defended their home from raiders - but the post-apocalyptic drowned London that the eleven Freakangels survive in is never a safe place, and never surrounded by friends. In Freakangels Volume 3, the Freakangels begin to address how to build their community while a serial killer stalks in their midst. Everything almost comes crashing down around them as one of their own breaks their most valued rule.
