Revolution is an American post-apocalyptic dystopian future science fiction television NBC series that takes place 15 years after the start of a worldwide blackout starring Billy Burke, Tracy Spiridakos, Giancarlo Esposito, Zak Orth, David Lyons, and Elizabeth Mitchell.
The series had two seasons before it was cancelled by the network. In May 2015, DC Comics started releasing a new digital comic book which picks up where the television series left off. Between May 4 and June 15, 2015, four separate digital chapters were released.
Revolution mainly focuses on the Matheson family, it also features a variety of characters that they meet. And while the general part of the series takes place AFTER the blackout, each episode has had at least one flashback to before the blackout.
Show

Together, with a rogue band of survivors, they set out to rescue Danny, overthrow the Monroe Republic and ultimately re-establish the United States of America.
