After the Second Civil War, two lovers meet. A straight-edge vegan hacker anarchist boy and a chaotic, hedonistic cop with a reality TV show. This really shouldn’t happen—and yet, somehow, it does.

Zero #2 - PAGE 4
A wooden box at the bottom of a river somewhere in England. It’s at least 20 feet deep. And it’s winter.We don’t see the ice at the top of the river, probably, at least not yet.
ZERO: BASIC TRAINING.
Zero, inside the box, looking completely calm.
ZERO: WE ALL HAD TO GO THROUGH THE BOX UNTIL WE MANAGED TO GET OUT OF ITIN UNDER TWO MINUTES.
A different angle. We realize he’s in a straightjacket.
ZERO: KIDS DIED, FROM TIME TO TIME. KIDS DIED A LOT. ONLY THE STRONGESTWOULD SURVIVE, AND THEIR DEATHS, WELL, THEY WOULD BE FUEL FOR OUR SURVIVAL…
The sense of claustrophobia is total. It’s not making us just slightly nauseated – it’s making us straightup ill. Lee/Ditko in that Amazing Spider-Man issue (is it #29?), Marcos Martin riffing on it in one of the recent covers, Ennis/Dillon doing something similar in Preacher, Steranko’s stories, the way Zero applies himself in Zero #2 on pages 8 & 9, Kill Bill, any time you’ve ever been trapped somewhere tight and feared for your life and air…this is it, this is that condensed into one page. Use however many panels you wish for, whatever effect you think will convey this the best… We’re above Zero. He looks so calm. He’s pondering whether to stay down there or fight his way up. Might be multiple panels here, too, with almost no change in his expression.
ZERO: …THE STRANGE THING IS, IT FELT GOOD.
ZERO: I LIKED BEING ALONE DOWN THERE.
ZERO: I TOYED WITH THE IDEA OF NEVER COMING BACK UP.
ZERO: MEETING MY PARENTS AGAIN.
If you’re not reading Zero by now I guess there’s nothing more I can do for you. If you want to start, you can pick it up on discount before our aleskot sale ends tonight at 11pm EST.
“Well i want to die holding your hand.”
Zero #2
aleskot has become one of my favorite new creators, and it’s mostly because ZERO is so damn good.
Quite possibly 2 of my favorite pages from any comic in the last year. aleskot’s Zero is seriously an adventure of a comic, jordiecolorsthings continues to be a tour-de-force, hellomuller’s design work is groundbreaking, and traddmoore’s art in issue #2 is breathtaking. The repeated imagery of Zero as tarot’s Hanged Man really drives home everything going on here.
If you’ve never read Zero, today (4/21) is your last chance to get the whole first volume for only $4.99!
Even if you miss the sale, it’s still definitely one worth picking up, and I’m sure you’ll be hearing more about it as the story continues to unfold.

comiXolgy Unbound's Weekend #comicbinge
↳The Strange Tale of Luther Strode & The Legend of Luther Strode
This weekend we’re binging on Justin Jordan and traddmoore’s Luther Strode comics! Beautiful and gruesome and highly entertaining, what better way to spend a weekend?!
The Strange Tale of Luther Strode
Luther Strode is just your average nerd until he sends away for a bodybuilding course from an old comic book, one that works a whole lot better than he ever imagined. His newfound strength and strange talents make school a lot easier, but they’ve also caused some very, very bad people to take a very, very keen interest in him. Things will never be the same for Luther Strode…if he survives.
Luther Strode lives.
Five years after losing everything, Luther has become more than a nightmare for the evil men in his city… he has become a legend. But somebody is hunting the bogeyman, and he has dangerous allies that Luther will never expect. Luther Strode lives; but for how long?
#comicbinge comes to you every Friday at the end of the work day suggesting series runs you can binge on over the weekend!
Zero #004 comes out Wednesday 12/18/2013. Drawn by Morgan Jeske.
Have you been reading Zero?? It’s become one of the most interesting titles this year. Each issue is almost like a stand alone book, but all of them have an overarching storyline. This scene from #2 effectively turned me into a puddle of mush.
Don’t even get me started on #3.
