The horrific true story of the Cambodian painter Vann Nath, who used his art to fight against barbarism and tyranny. In 1978, a young painter named Vann Nath was arrested by the Khmer Rouge, the violent and totalitarian Communist Party of Kampuchea that ruled Cambodia from 1975 to 1979. Imprisoned in the infamous Tuol Sleng prison, better known as S-21, painting became synonymous with survival for him. Ordered, like many Cambodian artists and craftsmen, to put his talent to use to glorify his captors, upon his release he continued painting-this time, to remember and pay tribute to the victims of Pol Pot's evil regime.

Gasoline is a thing of the past. Once it was revealed that the government had been withholding how desperately depleted our resources were, society seemed to dismantle overnight. In an effort to keep our country moving forward, our nation's corporations united and created 'The Maglev.' Using revolutionary technology, The Maglev is a massive super highway that utilizes magnetic roadways and is fueled by solar power. Unfortunately, the only ones capable of using it are those who can afford to and those who hijack their way in. The rich and the wild. But, who cares about all of that? This is a story about good old fashion revenge!

Greetings From the Maglev is a three-volume graphic novel from artist Adam Cahoon and writer Mark Espinosa. It's a high-octane burn through a dystopian future where everything went bad. Fast. The Maglev is more than just an elitist roadway. More than the gangs that hack their way through it. It's solar-powered anarchy!
