***Reawakening*** is a discontinued horror web comic series written and illustrated by Martin Kevil. It would've tied into the larger multiverse through a prequel penned by Todd Cooper entitled *Reawakening 2: Apocalypse*.

## Synopsis

*Reawakening* is set several months after a supernatural pandemic of unknown origin decimated the United States in the late summer of 2010 and follows Joseph Stieker, his friend Ajay Siddiqui, and Ajay's son, Meraj, who are hardy survivors in the infested post-apocalyptic America.

Joseph, a former rancher and "man of the land", has yet to realize that he has no long-term survival plan and has relied on luck far too often. He attempts to convince Ajay, a former surgeon, that they should attempt to earn their keep in a larger group of survivors, where they could harvest crops and manage resources instead of scavenging for scraps and relying on sheer luck. Meanwhile, Meraj just tries to break up the arguments between the two elder gentlemen with rationality.

The survivors soon find themselves crossing paths with several groups, each with their own set of agendas and some more hostile than others. Joseph soon learns that the demonic creatures have begun strategizing new ways of killing the remaining humans. With this revelation, the survivors must find common ground and more efficient ways to neutralize their foes and prevail against the gathering hordes of undead, while Joseph alone clings to the hope of finding out who or what is responsible for the creation of these abominations.
