About the series
A gritty sci-fi series from Image Comics launched in 2025, Rat City follows a down-and-out ex-cop navigating a decaying urban landscape overrun by a strange, mutated rat population. With only two issues released so far, the book has quickly established a tense, noir-tinged atmosphere that blends crime fiction with ecological horror. The series is the work of writer Erica Schultz and artist Ze Carlos, whose stark, moody art brings this claustrophobic world to life. Rat City matters as a fresh, small-scale Image debut that uses a classic monster conceit to explore themes of urban decay and survival.
