I only read one and it kind of sucked plus the post apocalyptic shit was a drug induced dream while suffering from brain damage so it doesn't count

Death Stranding is the only apocalyptic fiction thatโ€™s worth the time.
I know Iโ€™m going to trigger you nerds, but the truth hurts

I guess Dredd technically counts. Also The Road had a rather good comic adaption recently.

Protector/First-Knife is pretty good, I just wish there was more. I love post-apocalyptic stories that actually get into the nitty-gritty when it comes to what society might look like after the survivors try to put the pieces back together.

Not necessarily the best, but one I think deserves more attention, and one of the few times I've seen a post-apocalyptic story where Lovecraftian Great Old Ones are what destroys civilization. Lupe is also easy on the eyes.

Hellboy/BPRD has what is probably my favorite depiction of the apocalypse in all the comics I've ever read.

Early on in the franchise there are already mentions of the apocalypse, even that Hellboy is the one who will start it, but it's seen as a thing that can be fought against and averted. And with each of Hellboy's victories and each denial of his "destiny" it seems that the apocalypse can indeed be prevented. But it creeps into the narrative more and more and before you know it the apocalypse IS the narrative as different stories and characters approach it from different angles and even those that think they could benefit from the apocalypse get swept up in it as much as any other victims. A sort of hopelessness sets in as it becomes more and more obvious that not only they won't be able to stop the apocalypse, but that it's already actively happening even if everyone is still trying to stop it. And in the end it turns out that stopping the apocalypse was never going to happen, and all the fighting and suffering really accomplished was a chance for something new to grow after the apocalypse instead of just an eternal end to everything. Everyone suffers, everyone dies, and the best you can hope for is that the next generation will live in a less shitty world.

Judge Dredd is easily the best one.

Such interesting art in the comics in this thread. Ironic that the actual subject is ugly.
