Nobel Prize winning neuroscientist Dr. Skinner has developed a miracle cure-all drug with no apparent drawbacks called Hapuna.
Hapuna soon becomes ubiquitous… and essential.
However, soon after Hapuna is officially introduced, Dr. Skinner vanishes.
But Dr. Skinner has returned this time, as a harbinger of doom.
Skinner announces that Hapuna has a short half-life.
Everyone who has taken it will die approximately three years later.
Death is coming for this sinful world and coming soon.
This group is called Lazarus.
Can they find Skinner and develop a vaccine before time runs out?
I hope you enjoy it.
Like all of his work,Lazarusis packed with big ideas, incredible characters and a ton of heart.
We cant wait for anime fans to see this world.
