Year Zero #2

Year Zero #2

by Benjamin Percy

Ben Percy (Wolverine) and Ramon Rosanas (Star Wars: Age of Resistance) team up to present an epic tale that offers a global look at the Zombie Apocalypse. A Japanese hitman, a Mexican street urchin, an Afghan military aide, a Polar research scientist, a midwestern American survivalist - five survivors of a horrific global epidemic who must draw upon their unique skills and deepest instincts to navigate a world of shambling dead. Year Zero wrestles with the weighty moral and theological questions posed by the pandemic and investigates its cause and possible cure.

Reviews

[Emma · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good use of colour to define the five separate story lines.

[Alexa Moon · Rating 3 out of 5]

The story moves slower than I anticipated. We get some backstory on one of the characters about their plans and aspirations to the future that were shattered. It is easy to guess to source that is going to provide the cure. I really like the fact that we are following 4 different people, I just wish that each issue would have fully developed situations and not just small scenes. It feels very slow and short and makes for a quick yet unmemorable read. I hope the series picks up with the next issue.

esclarecedor

Neste volume, já ficou mais claro o motivo das ações dos nossos “heróis” e como eles reagem aos ataques.

Acredito que tudo isso, foi causada pela pesquisadora que se encontra na Antártica.

Ansiosa pelo próximo volume!
