The inmate was named Time magazine's 'most hated man in America.' Six years ago, he was convicted for committing terrorist attacks against the US.īack at the prison, the inmate is suffering from dehydration and hunger. The United States army ordered the evacuation of all prisoners to their control, but the prison warden Halloran intentionally told a worker to leave behind one inmate. The children are shocked at the massacre, but the girl starts bleeding from her eyes (I Am Legend Animated Comics: 'Sacrificing the Few').Īn inmate recounts his experience as a prisoner in ADX Florence, dubbed 'the most secure prison facility in the US,' and 'the Alcatraz of the Rockies' ((I Am Legend Animated Comics: 'Isolation'). Once the gunfire stops, the convoy leaves however, a young boy and girl hiding in the bushes are still alive. A convoy of military trucks soon arrives, and soldiers wearing gas masks open fire on everyone, including all patients, healthy people, and even medical personnel. Medical workers were donned in full-body isolation suits. In an unnamed remote jungle village in Central America, mobile hospitals were set up to treat infected patients.

All major cities are decimated, including smaller and more remote towns, leaving only pockets of human civilization. Soon the virus became air-borne and became extremely infectious, further extending its severity. The virus is assumed to have mutated into its lethal form several times independently around the world. Airports, ships, and interstate commerce and travel helped to spread the virus around the world. The lethal strain was extremely infectious, able to be spread airborne and later through contact-transfer after another mutation, and it had a very quick incubation rate, leading to a very quick spread across communities. It is assumed that the lethal virus mutated very quickly in humans around the world who were given the virus as cancer treatment. However, sometime later, the virus mutated into a lethal strain. Miraculously all of them became cancer free, and this was hailed as the greatest medical achievement in human history.

Alice Krippin (a British scientist) genetically engineered the measles virus to cure cancer and tested the virus on 10,009 patients that all had different strains of cancer.
