Earthdivers Vol. 1: Kill Columbus

Stephen Graham Jones, the acclaimed author of The Only Good Indians and My Heart Is a Chainsaw, ventures into the world of comics with a gripping horror thriller. Set in the year 2112, the story unfolds in a dystopian future where rivers are drying up, oceans are rising, and civilization is on the brink of collapse. Amidst this chaos, a group of Indigenous outcasts discovers a time travel portal in a desert cave. They believe that the key to saving the world lies in altering its past, specifically by preventing Christopher Columbus from reaching the New World in 1492.

To achieve this, they send Tad, a hesitant linguist, on a perilous mission back in time. Tad, who lacks combat skills and has a shaky moral compass, faces immense challenges as he attempts to assassinate Columbus. The consequences of tampering with history are severe, and Tad’s journey tests his resolve, potentially leading to unforeseen repercussions for his friends and the future.
