    So ever since The Road came out I've been in love with the post-apocalyptic genre. Specifically those that focus on the characters like The Last of Us, The Walking Dead, I Am Legend, just about anything involving losing our humanity. Don't get me wrong I love things like Mad Max, The Book of Eli and 28 Days Later. They just don't have the same impact.

    Anyways, what books, movies, tv shows, comics, video games and such have you found?

    a good one is a tv show called 'Revolution' its sort of about the characters 15 years after an event called 'the blackout' basically its a world without electricity. another alright one is called 'Falling Skies' basically an alien apocalypse, unfortunately episodes are few and far between but has some good characters. but it depends on what you personally like.

    Yes! I love Revolution. I haven't started season 2 yet, but I hear mixed things about it. Haven't heard of Falling Skies, sounds interesting for sure!

    The Last Of Us. It confirmed the heights that a post-apoc setting is capable of reaching.
