Salt

All new tale picking up from where the critically acclaimed CARBON graphic novel left off. What if there really was a Garden of Eden - a place with a history before the first people we know of? A civilization cursed and banished underground for breaking their own commandment to live in balance with the Earth. When an evil coal operator discovers that the "sacred" carbon can burn forever, he will sacrifice the land and the people to extract the full deposit. When he awakens and releases a hell the surface world cannot imagine, the only thing that stands in the way of the ecological disaster, is a disgraced, ex-pro baseball pitcher and a community of courageous coal miners.

THIS ISSUE: "Armies Will Rise" - As the consuming inferno from the fire spreads across the land, Jacob's group stops for a burial and discover Reverend Vincent can shed light on the red salt. However, the Sheves attack in order to retrieve the sacred and eternal coal. Jacob must deal with being rescued by an outlaw militia group that is led by his personal nemesis.
