"It is the Indigenous Walking Dead!" Unless there is snow on the ground, never speak their name aloud. The more they eat the hungrier they become, and they are starving. https://youtu.be/ehY86MWsmUM  

A local hero named Ross, is bitten by a Wheetago at his cabin in northern Edmonton. Alberta is crawling with the deadly monsters and Ross must form an alliance with a frightened Mom and her young child, as well as escaped prisoners, to reach his family, who are trapped in the city.

Half-transformed, Ross holds onto his humanity with the help of his family medicine. But the Wheetago are not discouraged — they've already renamed him "Roth" and wait for him to join their "gruesome crusade."

They were meant to stay undisturbed, their dismembered limbs scattered, frozen under the permafrost, but as is always the way, the greed of industry has unburied them once more. Now, the most feared, the Wheetago, have returned, using their powers to call back the Na acho, cannibalistic giants once banished by Dene deities. ROTH, from award-winning, bestselling Tlicho Dene author Richard Van Camp, and visionary illustrator Christopher Shy is the first graphic novel in the Wheetago War series.
