AWA continues to stock the shelves with quality titles that keep the readers demanding more. Much like when zombies get a taste for flesh they need more, readers demand more of YEAR ZERO! As reported earlier today by The Hollywood Reporter, AWA’s “undead hit” is getting a volume 2!
“In Year Zero Vol. 1, we witnessed the fall of the world, and in volume 2, we come to understand that the end is just the beginning,” writer Benjamin Percy told The Hollywood Reporter. “Our characters span the globe — from the American suburbs to coastal Norway, from a hilltop compound in Colombia to the savannah of Rwanda — and the fractured design reflects a fractured world, something we can relate to all too well right now.”
Artists, Writers & Artisans chief creative officer Axel Alonso added, “Year Zero was always too big to be contained in one story arc. Volume Two picks up a few months after the events of Volume One, with five new stories of individuals from around the world doing their best to navigate a world where the shambling dead are just one of the dangers they must survive. You’ll root for some, you’ll root against others. Ben Percy is taking a truly global look at a world that’s been abandoned by God.”
