Leif liked Emily's A.D. comic book, so he decided to follow up with one of his own. A.D.: After Death asks important questions like: what is the cure for death? What killed off humanity? And should you get back with your ex? Leif also tries to get over his desire for newer, flashier art.

A.D. After Death was written by Scott Snyder, and illustrated by Jeff Lemire.
