This post is the first in the series Impending Doom, nightmarish visions of the coming apocalypse.
This is the way the world ends: a parched wasteland of cracked earth without a drop of water in sight. How could we survive in a world where water is power and hydration is a problem? Find out in the stories below.
Loved Mad Max: Fury Road? Get caught up on the whole series with Mad Max, The Road Warrior and Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome as Max and a whole host of desert denizens battle the elements and one another in the race to survive. Sure, the other films might be better… but who could forget Tina Turner’s Thunderdome couture?
Mindy McGinnis’ Not A Drop to Drink was selected as a CPL Best of the Best title for teens in 2013. When her mother dies, it’s up to 16-year-old Lynn to protect herself and her meager water source. In a world filled with desperate people, is there anyone left who she can trust?
Before the campy film starring rapper Ice-T as an angry, six-foot-tall mutant kangaroo, there was the raunchy comic by Jamie Hewlett and Alan Martin. In Tank Girl One, join our fearless heroine Tank Girl and her lovable kangaroo boyfriend Booga as they speed across the post-apocalyptic Australian desert in a tricked-out tank, causing chaos wherever the wind takes them.
Bonus book: if you like the Mad Max series, you’ll love Farel Dalrymple's The Wrenchies.
