🌳 Family Tree #1 β€” The Apocalypse Starts at Home! 🌍

Comic Review / First Impressions / Breakdown


When an eight-year-old girl begins transforming into a tree, her family is thrust into a nightmare that starts in their own home and spreads to the edges of society. In this video, we dive deep into Family Tree #1, written by Jeff Lemire with art by Phil Hester, and talk about why this debut issue delivers mystery, horror, emotion, and world-ending stakes β€” all at once.


From the moment the transformation begins, her single mom, rebellious brother, and possibly unhinged grandfather set out on a desperate road-trip across America searching for a cure. But the deeper they go, the weirder and more dangerous things get β€” with fanatic cults, mercenaries, and paparazzi all hunting the girl… each with their own terrifying agenda.
