Released August 1985
DC Graphic Novel #5
Synopsis
Imagine...it is an America of the future and the human race is dying out. Due to decades of war, pollution and disease, human males have lost the power to sire children. People have given up hope; they've given up trying. The laughter of children is a long-forgotten memory. Baby carriages rot in the junkyards. And the spirit of the times is...well, let's put it this way: Desperation is a word to describe the 'good old days.' The wastelands of this once-great civilization are now terrorized by gangs of 'Bully Boys' and strange religious cults. Against this bleak backdrop, one flickering hope begins to burn. It is a man. One man. He has somehow, miraculously, been spared the fate of his brethren. He does have the power to sire children - to keep the human race from becoming extinct. One fertile man - and he happens to be a priest! Writer Greg Potter (Jemm, Son of Saturn) and artist Ron Randall (Conqueror of the Barren Earth) will answer all the questions percolating in your minds as they lead you page by page (and there are 45 of them!) to the startling conclusion.
