In "Jack Zero, Part 1 of 5," writer and artist Troy Nixey launches a chilling, surreal journey as Trout and his friend Giuseppe Lint chase the malevolent force born from Trout’s imagination. After a restless sleep, Trout is tormented by a sinister presence that challenges him to a terrifying game—knocking on a door nine times and running before it opens. With haunting visuals and a creeping sense of dread, Nixey’s stark, expressive art and bold inks bring this psychological nightmare to life, while Arnold Pander’s cover captures the story’s eerie, otherworldly tone.
