In the series, Mackie will depict John Doe, a milkman with no recollection of his past who's given a chance at a better life — if he can send a mysterious parcel across a post-apocalyptic desert.

With the assistance of a trigger-happy car thief, he’ll face barbarian marauders driving vehicles of destruction and other dangers of the open road, containing an absurd clown who drives an all too familiar ice cream truck.
