Covert Warfare, Deadly Alliances, And Unfinished Business In Nakama Press’ ‘The Zeros’ Vol. 1
by Brendan M. Allen
Mad Cave Studios’ Nakama Press imprint has announced the English-language release of The Zeros Vol. 1. Translated by Book Buddy Media, this pulse-pounding action-espionage graphic novel from writer/illustrator Man Tsang blends crime, high-stakes action, and personal reckoning.
Once known as one of the deadliest assassins in the feared organization Karma, Pak Ling walked away from a life of violence after a mission ended in tragedy. For five years, he’s stayed hidden—trying to outrun the past he helped create.
But the past doesn’t stay buried.
When new threats emerge, Pak Ling is forced back into a world of covert operations, shadowy alliances, and unfinished business. As old enemies resurface and loyalties are tested, he must confront the choices that defined him—and decide whether redemption is truly possible.
Known for a bold visual style and cinematic storytelling, Tsang has crafted a fast-moving, action-packed thriller with morally complex characters and escalating tension. Drawing from both Eastern and Western storytelling traditions, The Zeros delivers a compelling blend of espionage, crime drama, and character-driven suspense.
“Man Tsang delivers much more than an action thriller,” says editor Kristen Simon. “Beneath the explosive battles and covert intrigue is a compelling story about guilt, redemption, and the difficult choices that define who we become. The Zeros is a fast-paced, emotionally grounded series that keeps surprising you at every turn.”
The Zeros Vol. 1 arrives September 8th, 2026 in paperback (ISBN: 781545832424 | $10.99). Readers can preorder through their local comic shop or bookstore.
