About

The Z-Axis is a webcomic about a group of friends keeping each other alive in the dead husk of their once-thriving home city. Nine years ago, a catastrophic miscalculation in the city's central AI put the whole place into low-power mode, killing or cryogenically freezing the majority of the population in the process and upending the lives of the survivors.

Now, their lives are somewhat stable, but they are still marked by what they endured. They slowly but surely heal from the horrors they have suffered, and maintain hope in the future that they'll cobble together with each other.

The Z-Axis is illustrated by vecvecvec and written by vecvecvec, cat-ears-headset, and Mino, three college students with just enough free time to squeak out something creative every so often.

The comic likely won't really manage anything approaching a consistent release schedule as a result; we're doing our best!

You can find vecvecvec on Tumblr (active) and Instagram (barely), and you can find cat-ears-headset on Tumblr and AO3. (Mino has a more sensible approach to privacy.)

This site is under construction! Future plans include: adding a separate archive for Z-Axis prose; adding a page for a timeline; and adding the rest of the minor cast to the characters page.
