'THE DARK AGE' SF SAGA
A WORLD WITHOUT ANY METAL!
Armory Films and Knightfall co-creator Don Handfield will turn THE DARK AGE, a sf comic book series to be published by Red 5 Comics, into TV series about the collapse of contemporary civilization in the wake of
mysterious calamity that transmutes every piece of workable metal on earth (tools, vehicles, guns, circuits, girders, etc.) into crumbling piles of rusted dust. Staggered by the loss of technology, humanity plunges into chaos until a violent feudal system takes shape and the surviving pockets of civilization are dominated by knights who wield weapons of wood and plastic. The story begins with Ethen Riker, an archaeology professor, his pregnant wife, Helen and his daughter Jonnie, enjoying a quiet lunch at a campus cafe. When his stirring spoon, then the table, then the metal foundations of the building itself suddenly crumble, Ethen rushes his family outside to witness the world quite literally coming to end. We flash forward thirteen years post-metal as he struggles to protect his family in this new paleo-plastic world and unravel the dark mystery of why metal disappeared.
