Although the plot of
JEREMIAH has to do with nation-building and the collapse and
revival of civilization, the series' major thematic concerns
are about the relationships between fathers and sons. (And
the focus clearly is on fathers and sons, not parents
and children, which may be why the roles of many of the series'
female characters are
comparatively colorless.)
The first season, of course, is centered on Jeremiah's quest
for his father, but the father-son relationship informs each
of the principal heroes. Jeremiah is engaged in an actual
search for the enigmatic Valhalla Sector, to which he believes
his father may have escaped. Similar dynamics motivate both
Markus Alexander and Kurdy.
