''Gaslighters'' is a horror comic created by John Stewart, and originally published by Violent Studios before being moved to Stewart's own Bad Donut Comics. It is crowdfunded via Website/{{Kickstarter}}.

In the not-too-distant future, a military experiment went wrong and a zombie plague was unleashed upon the world. Many of those who contracted the virus became members of the Dying Breed, compelled to consume living flesh in order to stave off the disease's grim end. A few, on the other hand, became Everlastings, who are almost able to pass for human except that they don't feel pain and have a deathly pallor.

The Dying War ensued, and the Dying Breed were cast out into the deadlands to survive on their own, while the Everlastings were allowed to reside in the cities alongside normal people.

In the present, Everlasting bounty hunter Zoey "Nightmare" Chase tries to make a living in Tor City, a black-market trading post, but her latest assignment may force her to confront her past and her connection to the virus.
