Year Zero
YEAR ZERO by Ben Percy and Ramon Rosanas
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.
I love anything having to do with zombies and while I know THE WALKING DEAD universe makes anything in this space difficult to stand out, the fact that this new series feels inspired by recent events has me curious about where the story could go. It’s more human focused and feels closer toTHE LEFTOVERS than anything else.
