Doctor Zero is a superhero comic book series published by the Epic Comics imprint of Marvel Comics.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })It's part of the Shadowline shared universe, set in a world where a second, hidden race - the Shadow Dwellers - evolved alongside humanity. Individually, Shadow Dwellers are more powerful than humans, but humans vastly outnumber them and so they've tended to stay hidden. Until now.The being calling himself Doctor Zero is the most powerful of the Shadow Dwellers, and he's just made his public debut as the world's first superhero. However, his motives are not be as benevolent as they seem - and, when out of the public eye, his methods are cynical and manipulative.Doctor Zero wants world peace. He wants to keep the Cold War cool and stop humanity destroying itself. And he's prepared to do many things to achieve that goal. Not because he loves humanity, but just because - at least for the moment - he's sharing the planet too.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The first issue was released February 16, 1988. The last issue (#8) was released April 18, 1989.After the series was cancelled, Doctor Zero's story continued in Critical Mass, an Anthology Comic combining the previous three Shadowline titles.

Bad People Abuse Animals: A flashback shows Clerk, as a child, launching Snowball the cat inside a small rocket. He's listening to its panicked yowling over the radio right up until the moment the rocket detonates. Clerk later claims this was purely For Science!, not because Snowball scratched him, but doesn't seem entirely plausible.

Assassin Outclassin': Doctor Zero is on the receiving end when he first tries to kill Dr Clerk, a mere human. His energy powers are countered by a chemical spray, he's hit with an electric shock and his lifeless body's dumped in the arctic snow.
