A review by librarimans
Zero Volume 1: An Emergency by Aleš Kot

5.0

I read this monthly and in the span of 5 issues it has quickly become one of my favorite books. Kot has masterfully crafted a world of espionage and secret government operations where everything is not exactly as it seems. The book employs a unique narrative structure where each issue is a standalone story about the titular character, Edward Zero, yet is part of an overarching narrative about his life and career as a veritable super spy for the Agency. As each issue is essentially a one shot, they all have different artists, this lets each issue breath and works with the writing to create and reinforce the tone of the book. I can not recommend this series highly enough.
