Synopsis
Evil Dead meets Mad Max: Fury Road in Post Malone’s BIG RIG, a “batsh*t, sulfur-soaked, pedal-to-the-metal gorefest” (Matt Dinniman, Dungeon Crawler Carl) set in medieval Europe, where the only thing standing in the way of the horde of demons infesting the continent is a mysterious armored 18-wheeler seemingly sent from the heavens.
THEY PRAYED FOR A MIRACLE. THEY GOT 25 TONS AND 18 WHEELS OF HOLY WEAPON.
Post Malone’s BIG RIG.
The Dark Ages… Demon hordes plague Europe as Hell invades Earth. The Six Petals, a secret sect of The Knights Templar, pray for a holy weapon to drive back the scourge. What crashes to earth instead is The Rig, a fully loaded tractor trailer. In the aftermath of its arrival, the only man left standing is an enigmatic former priest. He will become Trucker and lead the fight against Hell—with 25 tons and 18 wheels of demon-slaying machine.
Created by Post Malone. Written by Post Malone and Adrian Wassel. Drawn by Barbaric co-creator and Dark Knights of Steel artist Nathan Gooden

Praise for Post Malone's BIG RIG:
"...relish the frenzy." - Publishers Weekly
"Behold the unclean birth of a new genre: All hail Dark-Ages Grindhouse!" -Si Spurrier (The Flash)
“I love the art, attitude and characters.” – Michael Bay (Producer) commenting on BIG RIG
"BIG RIG is the grimdark combo of SPAWN and CONVOY, a demonic ripsnorter that starts faster than you think it will and keeps driving." — Adam Cesare, USA TODAY Bestselling author of Clown in a Cornfield
"A batshit, sulfur-soaked, pedal-to-the-metal gorefest with a killer concept and even more killer execution." — Matt Dinniman (Dungeon Crawler Carl)
“The surprise break-out indie comic of the year.” — Screenrant
“For anyone in love with legendary cult classics like Army of Darkness and Evil Dead, this is … for you." — Nicholas Eames (Kings of the Wyld, Barbaric)
“Gloriously unhinged. Wassel, Malone, & Gooden put the pedal to the death metal." — Daniel Kibblesmith (TV & Comics Writer)
