Episode 113: Zero Killer with Arvid Nelson

Sunday August 16, 2009 07:30:00 pm
Zero Killer #4 (of 6)
Arvid Nelson, the writer behind Rex Mundi, joins us to discuss the wrap-up of his ten-year series about mysticism and the quest for the Holy Grail; and to give us the low-down on the continuation after a year's hiatus of Zero Killer, his post-apocalyptic fantasy of life in a flooded New York.
Arvid Nelson (W), Matt Camp (A), and Dave Stewart (C)
Miniseries Thirty-four years after a massive nuclear war, New York City is almost entirely submerged in caustic water and dominated by brutal gangs who live in a semifeudal society in the city's battered skyscrapers. Zero is a 'trash man,' hunting down renegade gang members while he dreams of escaping across the seas to the now-mythical continent of Africa-a supposedly flourishing land untouched by nuclear fires. In this issue, after a guerrilla strike throws JOCOM's plans into a tailspin and a mysterious metal briefcase goes missing, supposed agents of a powerful African prince have hired Zero to track down JOCOM's precious case. Zero sets out for the most dangerous part of the city, where he will have to face some cold facts about his past and a murderous gang he once led. 'Arvid Nelson's post-apocalyptic series Zero Killer suggests something as complicated and personality-driven as Give Me Liberty in its prime . . . Matt Camp's finely detailed art and Nelson's ear for simple, punchy dialogue and characterization make for solid hooks.' The A.V. Club Arvid Nelson's alternate-history thriller returns!
