Gothic

"Be Real" isn't just another zombie comic—it's a biting satire that cleverly plays with the notion of keeping it genuine in a world obsessed with surface-level authenticity. Felix Cheong's poetry adds a lyrical depth to the narrative, while Arif Rafhan's illustrations bring a gritty edge. If you're yearning for a story that's both darkly humorous and thought-provoking, with a protagonist whose descent into 'zombiism' mirrors our own societal obsession with the 'real', this could be the fresh take you've been looking for.

This is the kind of dystopian story that feels raw, strange, and deeply human all at once. Gus’s innocence makes the ruined world hit harder, while the bond that grows between him and Jepperd gives the whole journey real heart. If you like comics that are haunting but gentle underneath, this one tends to stay with you.
