About The Book

Amidst the irradiated plains walks a legend who is more than man . . . BEWARE THE MAN FROM MAYBE! In the dry and dead future that's coming soon, all life belongs to Oppenheimer-obsessed billionaire Harvard Denny and his corporate scavengers from Smile, Inc., who pillage the wastelands in search of atomic contraband. But when a hyper-advanced vessel of possibly alien origin crash lands on the outer edge of Denny's empire of neon-lit ruins, will it bring promise or poison to a distorted world? As the race to acquire the ship's cargo begins, our fate will be decided by a masked bandit and the cold iron of his laser rifle. He knows no name, no home, no surrender—only the whispered hush of those in need who dare call him . . . THE MAN FROM MAYBE! Give yourself over to an upside-down world where all mutants eat lead and all dinosaurs speak truth in the post apocalyptic epic of Western-infused action from rising star Jordan Thomas (Weird Work, XINO) and psychedelic warlord Shaky Kane (Bulletproof Coffin, The Beef)!

Raves and Reviews

"This series is a very successful blend of westerns and dystopian sf, with clear good versus evil at its core."

Booklist

“A psychedelic post-apocalyptic combination of genres that is out of this world.”

 

SCREENRANT

"a singular and scintillating saga of the wasteland" 

– CBR

"...a wild blend of post-apocalyptic fiction, sci-fi, and Westerns"

– Comicbook.com

"[The Man from Maybe] whisks you away to an upside-down world where mutants reign and atomic contraband is the most valuable thing in existence [...] sure to hook readers who are looking for something new and exciting"

Capes and Tights

"I doubt I will read anything else this year quite like this series. Part western, part science fiction, part dystopian future all done in the unique style of Shaky Kane. It reminds me of something I would watch on the old Liquid TV series. A story that pushes away from convention and looks to carve its own path.”
