CrossMore: Afflicted Wasteland

***CrossMore: Neverzone Apocalypse*** is a four-episode miniseason/limited series of *CrossMore: The Series*, written by Krista Vernoff, Madison Bateman, Jerome Schwartz, Aaron Montalvo, Greg Weisman & Todd Casey and directed by Lance Kramer and Victor Cook. The miniseason is another "What If" story told by Star Butterfly, as a post-apocalyptic story where the CrossMore Universe was in a war for the supremacy of magical arts. It is a parody and tribute to post-apocalyptic stories from Mad Max, Attack on Titan, and The Walking Dead. This is the fourth of the CrossMore Universe Chronicles series of miniseasons.

It is four episodes aired on Montalvo Xtreme in February 21, 2022 for four nights until February 24. The series is rated TV-MA for post-apocalyptic themes/bloody violence, gore and adult content.

Two sequel miniseasons, in the scenario of Mariposa's dreams, titled *Afflicted Wasteland* and *Forge of Hellscape*, aired back-to-back on Montalvo Xtreme in December of 2023.

## Premise

In another of CrossMore's "What If" stories, after a magical haywire from the Neverzone's magical source led to crisis in the Universe, a lot of people are going at each other's throats for the sake of maintaining a magical gain. However, the CrossMore Squad went through a post-apocalyptic change as they all grow old but still experienced to survive a "Neverzone Apocalypse" as they go through deadly fights to restore the magical source until it goes haywire, or die trying, in a sad way. Oh god, this got dark as f\*\*k.
