AWA Studios‘ Year Zero is getting a second volume that begins in November. The first issue drops one month after the first volume’s trade is released.

The new volume explores new characters from other parts of the world affected by the pandemic’s global reboot of the world and tests the ability to survive in this new world order.

Upshot’s hit series Year Zero returns with four new harrowing tales of survival from around a post-apocalyptic world: A grizzled Norwegian sea captain and her two young grandchildren navigate an ocean teeming with undead while eluding the relentless pirates on their trail. A Colombian cartel boss indulges all of his most sadistic whims unaware that a threat far greater than zombies is headed toward his jungle fortress. A Rwandan doctor must overcome the crippling fear that has plagued him all his life as he stumbles through the African bush. And a pregnant woman barricaded in an American big-box store discovers that the greatest threat to her life – and her unborn child’s – might not be undead. Benjamin Percy once again pens this global look at the zombie apocalypse, now joined by artist Juan Jose Ryp and colorist Frank Martin.
