Synopsis

A giant tree popped up in the middle of the Atlantic ocean covering the world in a strange new radiation and because of it, people began to change. First, there are the Chosen. These super humans have only slight physical changes and yet can manifest amazing elemental powers. Next, you have the Infected. These humans have experienced large scale body changes which range from animal adaptations to simply grotesque body decomposition. Most are still normal and sane humans who attempt to adapt to life while being shunned by others. There are some however that have grown deranged and think themselves the rulers of the world. Our MC lives a somewhat lonely life while sometimes being accompanied by his rather senile yet kind grandfather. He has no idea where his parents went after they dropped him off a few years ago, so he has no choice but to stay here. He lives by the idea that he should just be air and not be noticed in the slightest. All of this goes ok until things start changing and Laz starts getting dragged around in many different directions. Welcome to a story of Gods, evolution, love, adult situations and basically bringing a bit of eastern fantasy to western civilization. Hope you enjoy the ride.

There are quite a few. For example, 'The Country of the Blind' by H.G. Wells. In this story, a man stumbles upon a community of the blind and has to deal with their different way of life. 'The Rocking - Horse Winner' by D.H. Lawrence is also lesser - known but great. It tells the story of a boy who tries to gain his mother's love through winning bets on horse races by mysteriously predicting the winners. And 'The Boarded Window' by Ambrose Bierce, a spooky short story with a lot of atmosphere.

A really interesting lesser - known Batman story is 'Batman: Son of the Demon'. It involves Batman having a son with Talia al Ghul. 'Batman: The Cult' is also great. In this story, Batman has to fight against a cult that has taken over Gotham. And 'Batman: Venom' where Batman gets addicted to a steroid - like substance called Venom and has to deal with the consequences. These stories offer unique takes on the Dark Knight that are not as mainstream as some of the big - name Batman tales.
