Section Zero is an interesting book. It was a series released by Image imprint Gorilla Comics back in the late 2000’s. It didn’t last long, with only three issues released due to financial issues. But good ideas don’t die. Almost 20 years later and the creative team of writer Karl Kesel and artist Tom Grummett are returning to the series and are once again publishing through Image Comics. Read the official press release below.
