The Agency is back in play. The weaponized fungus spreads. An old incident brings repercussions.
Kot's storytelling abilities are remarkable in the way he expertly tells a narrative through both the exposition and art. He's struck a fantastic balance between the two that really allows Adam Gorham to convey just as much emotion and story through the characters as the writing. Gorham's art is stunning as he blends meticulously detailed environments, the fungal infestation in the house being gorgeously if not grotesquely detailed, with more smooth and minimalistic characters. Eisner Award Winning Colorist Jordie Bellaire continues her remarkable work as one of the best in the business. The messy opening pages are almost chaotic as they're drabbed in a sickly green which is contrasted starkly by the pristine white and neatly organized pages in the second act. Read Full Review
Another finely designed chapter in the life of Agent Zero. This book continues to push the spy into new directions and themes which are starting to stretch its line between the surreal and its perceived normality. Read Full Review
The final moments of this issue ripple back through the entirety of the series. The color so many of the preceding events in a different way. Readers may find themselves revisiting many events in the past, or even rereading the entire twelve chapters. With what comes in the final pages, so many mentions and instances that meant little before now connect. It is fascinating how one page, after a year of storytelling can have that kind of effect. And yet, even with this new enlightenment and view of the events of the story, a significant number of uncertainties exist. Possibly, now, even more questions are at play than before. It's a strange place to feel as though both resolution and unrest come of the same action. However, just as the final moments of the first arc left readers buzzing with crazed after a massive and unexpected ending, issue twelve shook the snow globe once more. Read Full Review
Zero continues to disappoint, as though there are signs that the tides are once again changing, the final product remains lackluster. The narrative also continues to dampen proceedings, with the only saving grace of this issue being the teaser within. Due to this I can't wholeheartedly recommend this issue. Read Full Review
Awesome as always.
