Survival Street is a unrepentant action satire tearing through a dystopia packed with economic and humanistic cautionary tales.
After an unbridled wave of corporations take over America, the country is left completely deregulated and effectively carved up into feudal states where billionaires and businesses make their own laws. Among the wreckage, mass privatization shuts down public broadcasting forcing all the beloved edu-tainers out on the down and dirty streets. One group of them stick together, determined to keep helping kids across the country and do it by becoming an A-Team-esque band of mercenaries fighting for (and educating!) kids in the crumbling, corporate war zone of New Best America.
A candy coating of pop culture madness, humor, cartoonishly absurd hyper-violence, and just enough hope to keep holding on. Collects Survival Street #1–#4.
James Asmus is a writer and performer who’s received several awards and nominations for his work in theater, comic books, and comedy. In recent years, he’s expanded to write for television, animation, and a short-lived X-Men mobile game.
Jim Festante has written for various networks and media outlets including NBCUniversal, Comedy Central, MTV, Syfy, The Washington Post, NBC TODAY, Discovery Networks, and Slate Magazine. His comics writing includes THE END TIMES OF BRAM AND BEN (Image), RICK AND MORTY PRESENTS: MR. MEESEEKS (Oni), FIELD TRIPPING (Amazon/ComiXology Originals), and SURVIVAL STREET (Dark Horse).
