Across the Doodleverse
The kids must face a mysterious new threat: Someone is stealing kids' schoolwork-margin doodles and turning them into an army of kooky living sketches! But what will the heroes do against the manic, illogical brilliance of living doodles?! While they fight, Boy Lightning's head and drawing arm are kidnapped by our new villain and taken into the wastelands beyond the borders of Apocalyptia!
Now our team must brave heretofore unseen worlds (Carnivorous Plant Apocalypse and Slime Apocalypse, to name a few) in order to infiltrate the Doodle Temple of Doom and save Jack from the machinations of DOODLEHEAD, a villain with a hand-drawn head who plans to siphon all of Jack’s superpowers and his life essence to make the doodle-creatures permanent and take over all of Apocalyptia!

Last Comics on Earth
In a post-monster-apocalypse world where danger lurks behind every slime-covered corner and survival is just another part of the daily routine, creativity becomes its own form of heroism. Last Comics on Earth taps into that wild, offbeat energy with a style that feels equal parts comic book chaos and middle-grade mischief. Born from the wildly imaginative universe of The Last Kids on Earth, this spin-off series flips the perspective. Here, the focus shifts to Jack and his friends as they channel their monster-fighting adventures into hand-drawn comic stories—each more absurd, action-packed, and hilarious than the last.
Last Comics on Earth consists of three books and series is set to expand with the upcoming release of one more book. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
