This Artist Draws Evil Cheerleaders, Hunky Leon And The Last Of Us

If you’ve tried to learn every little thing about The Last of Us, then chances are you’ve already seen Faith Erin Hicks’s artwork.

The Last Of Us Has A Series, And It Looks Pretty Good

The Last Of Us Infected Enemies Are Fast, Fungal And Damn Frightening

Before diving into an extended hands-on session with Naughty Dog’s The Last of Us, creative director Neil Bruckmann describes what he hopes I’ll take away from the demo: “We want to demonstrate through gameplay, through action what people have had to deal with.” By “people”, he’s referring to the survivors of a population-wiping plague that took hold 20 years prior when a plant-based parasite began burrowing into human brains. As far as what those struggling few “have had to deal with”, well, Bruckmann’s talking about the Infected.
