Corey asked this question about
Earth Abides:
Does this seem too much like "I Am Legend" to anyone else? Yes, the movie came out until the 2000's, but that was the third time it the novel was cinematized, first in the 50's as "Last Man On Earth", then in the 70's as "The Omega Man".

It did remind me of I am Legend, which was written in 1954. This book was written in 1949 so I guess any inspiration comes from this story.
