Song: Rise Artist: DJ Adam 12 (Performed by Chole Leighton) Download it here: http://soundcloud.com/dj-adam-12/rise Based on one of the most critically acclaimed comics of all time. A mysterious plague has wiped out all men on the planet, and women are left to pick up the pieces of society. The only surviving man is Yorick, an amateur escape artist who is the key to the continual survival of the human race. Special Agent 355 is tasked to protect his life at all costs. Luckily, she's really good at her job... IGN and Drake 1129 Productions are proud to present this new short film, made by super fans of the comic. It covers the initial plague that kills any mammal with a Y chromosome (except Yorick and his trusty monkey companion, Ampersand) and an awesome fight between Agent 355 and a fanatical group of Amazons. Directed and Written by Christian Cardona Produced by Kent King and Christian Cardona Yorick......................Travis Quentin Young Agent 355................Kent King Hero........................Rebecca Marshall Roxy........................Vida Guerra Victoria....................Traci Dinwiddie This fan film is not endorsed by or affiliated with DC Comics/ Vertigo, Warner Bros Studios, or the original creators of the comic, Brian K Vaughan & Pia Guerra. You should read the original comic though -- it's really, really good.
