About the series
A haunting post-apocalyptic fable from DC's Vertigo imprint, Sweet Tooth follows the journey of Gus, a gentle, antlered hybrid boy, through a world ravaged by a deadly pandemic. Written and drawn primarily by Jeff Lemire, with additional art by Matt Kindt and Nate Powell, the series blends stark survival with quiet, mythic wonder. Its intimate, character-driven story explores themes of family, trust, and humanity's capacity for both cruelty and kindness in the face of collapse.
