Two years ago, the apocalypse started for the seventh time. As the number of zombies rise, so do the ranks of influencas: professional zombie hunters who post their lives online. When Dodie and Beatriz, the accidental founders of the movement, are trapped in their bunker by a persistent horde, what else is there to do but take a romantic vacation?
Told through the lens of interviews, social media posts, and nostalgic reminiscing, Influenca is a glimpse into a day at the end of the world, past and present, and what life looks like when the apocalypse becomes predictable.

"The anarchic spirit of underground comix survives in Peters’s raucous, darkly funny graphic novella debut set in the post-post-apocalypse.... It’s an irreverent, cockeyed take on survival horror sure to entertain fans of zombie anarchy, LGBTQ romance, and punk attitude." – Publishers Weekly
