Synopsis for "The Last Boy on Earth!"
This story is reprinted from Kamandi #1.
Kamandi is the so-called "Last Boy on Earth". Growing up in an apocalyptic future, he rides a raft down the flooded streets of what was once Manhattan. He sees a group of nomadic humans who flee at the sight of him. While studying them, Kamandi hears an explosion emanating from his command bunker headquarters. He races back to the base to find that someone had set off the booby traps.
Running inside, he is shocked to discover that two wolf-men named Fen and Stek have murdered his grandfather and stolen some documents that they found within the bunker's walls. The wolves attack Kamandi, but he shrugs off the assault with some well-placed karate moves. They chase him down into the tunnels that run beneath Command D, but Kamandi pulls down some wires that strikes the water, electrocuting them.
Emerging from the tunnels, Kamandi takes the Wolves' wagon and drives away. A short time later, he comes upon another amazing sight - a squad of armored Tiger-Men embroiled in armed combat against some Leopard-Men. Kamandi finds himself caught in the middle of the conflict and is captured by the Tiger-Men. The Tiger-Men leader Great Caesar bring him back to the Royal City where he is imprisoned.
Kamandi meets a dog man named Doctor Canus, who is the caretaker of Caesar's prisoners as well as the keeper of a giant nuclear warhead - a holdover from the days before the Great Disaster. Inside Canus' private laboratory, Kamandi meets one of the Nuclear People - Ben Boxer. Kamandi is ecstatic at the chance to meet another human being.

Notes
- The first half of this book is a facsimile reprint of Kamandi #32, which was a giant-sized special. The cover of this book is reprinted from Kamandi #32, and then the new story from #32 is reprinted, followed by a map of Earth-AD and the first Kamandi story (both originally from Kamandi #1, but also reprinted in #32).
- "Into the Vortex", "I'll See You in My Nightmares!" and "The Seal Men's War on Santa Claus" are presented just as they were in Cancelled Comic Cavalcade #2 -- in black and white, and with occasional missing captions.
- "I'll See You in My Nightmares!" wraps around "The Seal Men's War on Santa Claus".
- This book also contains a map of Earth-AD (by Jack Kirby, from Kamandi #1) and the unused cover for Kamandi #60 (by Rich Buckler and Jack Abel, from Cancelled Comic Cavalcade #2).
