COMING SOON: Action Comedy 'The Last Harlemite' by Jeff Carroll

 

 Red 5 Comics is set to release The Last Harlemite by writer Jeff Carroll. The post-apocalypse

American manga-styled book will have 4 issues starting in August and running through December 

2024.

The Last Harlemite features many action, comedy, and coming-of-age comradery between the

characters. The story allows readers to follow the adventures of 16-year-old Mansi as he

carries along the memories of his 7-year-old sister Tee Tee in his head. Mansi along with his friends and

 his dog Benzo navigate the dangerous post-apocalyptic world of what used to be New York City.

The Harlem Shake Apocalypse world is full of crazy people, dangerous environments, monstrous

animals, dinosaurs, and mysterious places. When an earthquake caused by fracking on a fault line

 causes the Earth’s tectonic plates to shift and the 125th Street Fault to become active. The shifting of 

the tectonic plates causes a weakening in the Earth’s magnetic field. With the earth’s magnetic field

weakened, meteorites can hit the Earth’s surface bringing spores of new lifeforms.

“I wanted to write a mainstream-type story but still be black. I wanted to expand on what is considered

black science fiction. When people think of Black sci-fi they think of African warriors and paranormal

stories, not global disasters and the post-apocalypse,” said Jeff Carroll of his work.

Jeff Carroll lives in South Florida, with his wife and son. He is a writer and filmmaker. He enjoys

 writing Sci/fi, Horror, and fantasy stories with lots of action and a social edge. He has written and

 produced 6 films, his award-winning film Gold Digger Killer is a Hip Hop classic on Tubi.
