12The comic follows Ståle, a Norwegian exchange student who looks forward to a ZombieApocalypse, until he's in the middle of one. In his world, zombies and the [[TheVirus LARS disease]] which causes them only plague third-world countries. When the largest recorded outbreak hits the Congo, Ståle predicts that the end is imminent. [[AmericaSavesTheDay U.S. troops are sent in]] and all contact with the soldiers is lost. When they do come back to the edge of the quarantine, they are infected and begin to escape and spread.

14[[TimeSkip Fifty-three days later]], Ståle has been separated from Zeke, his best friend and fellow survivor. Ståle must seek refuge with the mysterious Detlef, juggling survival and the search for Zeke.
