Orphans of the Impact Winter tells the tale of Chuck and Addie, a young boy and his loyal Australian
Shepherd, as they struggle to survive in a near-future where the moon is tumbling from orbit, destined for a collision with Earth. Coping with their harsh reality by imagining they’re space explorers in a vibrant sci-fi world, the pair embark on a perilous journey to find salvation from their doomed planet. It’s a story about growing up and navigating the trials of youth – venturing out into an unforgiving world, making friends, dealing with first loves and losses, all viewed through the lens of an impending apocalypse.
(Issue 3) Despite the Orphans’ offer, Chuck and Addie continue to go it alone, though the going gets much harder. With their food shortage growing dire, Chuck is forced to take greater risks to find supplies. Unexpected discoveries and treacherous challenges await in uncharted territory, but if they’re not careful they may learn the price of failure is more than they’re willing to pay…
