ZEER (2026) — ISSUE #2: “WHITEOUT”
As Buck City struggles to recover from the devastating blackout, Nazeer Jones discovers that the accident beneath Lake Koda changed more than his connection to electricity. His body temperature continues to plummet to impossible levels, and strange new abilities begin manifesting whenever he loses control.
Meanwhile, investigative reporter Talia Winters uncovers evidence linking the blackout to a network of hidden underground facilities operated by ZeroCore Industries. Convinced a cover-up is underway, she begins digging into the secrets buried beneath Buck City.
When armed smugglers attempt to move stolen ZeroCore technology through a frozen train yard, Nazeer is forced into his first real fight. In the heat of battle, he accidentally unleashes a devastating new power—Freeze Breath—instantly turning part of the train yard into a frozen wasteland.
As ZeroCore identifies the mysterious “storm man” from the blackout footage, a citywide manhunt begins. Nazeer may have survived the Polar Engine explosion, but now one of the most powerful corporations in Frostholm knows he exists.
