Singularity 7 is a four-issue comic book mini-series created, written, and illustrated by Ben Templesmith.

The series combines elements of science-fiction, cyberpunk, and horror, to tell the story of a post-apocalyptic dystopian future.

Burton C. Bell's introduction to the collected volume references the myriad ways in which the word can (and is) used in the comic, as well as giving a humorous nod to the 'singularity' of the writer.

All matter that is swallowed by the mighty gravitational pull of a black hole is reduced to a singularity, the size of an atom.

I believe this term is a perfect description for the latest addition to the world of graphic artists..."[1] The series marked a departure for Templesmith as it was his first attempt at scripting his own comic.

"[2] The comic tells the story of how Earth was forever changed after alien nanites arrived in a meteor shower.

Unfortunately, Bobby goes crazy, becoming a God-like monster called ‘The Singularity’, destroying everything and forcing humanity to live deep beneath the surface of the Earth.

This new world is post-apocalyptic, filled with monsters, poisonous gases, and the nanites, which are now used to devour human flesh.

The only things able to go to the surface are the "Gosiodo" - part man / part machine creatures connected to the hive mind of the Singularity and sent out to hunt down the remaining humans, and "Specials" - rare humans who, when exposed to the nanites are mysteriously not killed and instead bond with the nanites, giving them access to strange powers and the ability to survive on the surface.

Everyone is killed, except for Chon who becomes a Special with the ability to morph his arms into a liquid substance capable of eating through Gosiodo armor.

(The nanites infect one person, creating the Singularity, which then wipes out all life on the planet and terraforms it for the Master's use).

Templesmith, fascinated with the concept, has said that "nanotechnology will be like a tidal wave in a kiddie pool, compared to the information revolution our society has apparently recently gone through.
