🩸 ZERO PULSE — ISSUE #2 “THE BURIED CITY”

The dead have returned — but they are not mindless. Beneath the collapsing ruins of the city, something horrifying is spreading through the infected: memory. Former EMT Isaiah Kane descends into abandoned subway tunnels after reports of silent figures gathering underground. What he discovers changes everything humanity believes about the outbreak. The infected remember being buried alive. They remember the darkness. And worst of all… they remember him. As mass graves beneath the city begin to awaken, Isaiah encounters the terrifying figure survivors whisper about in fear — The Still Man, the first intelligent infected. Calm, patient, and impossibly aware, he reveals a truth more horrifying than death itself: The infected were conscious the entire time. Now the streets are cracking open, the buried are rising, and the city is becoming a graveyard that remembers.
