Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Black Summer is a 2019 prequel to the 2014 Syfy series Z Nation, released on Netflix on April 11, 2019. Unlike the original series, Black Summer takes place during the early days of the Zombie Apocalypse, and rather than following a story arc, it documents the fate of a handful of survivors during a very short period of time, divided up into 8 episodes.The episodes are divided up into segments, which follow different characters trying to survive in an American suburb just as the zombie apocalypse is taking a turn for the worse, sometimes revisiting the same areas other survivors had previously been in. The main character is Rose, a woman who is searching for her daughter, who was on the last refugee truck that left the neighborhood before the Army tried to lock it down. She joins a group consisting of Spears, a soldier with a dark secret, a mute man named Ryan, and a young survivor named Lance. Other survivors include Sun, a Korean girl who speaks little English, and William, a violent man with anger problems.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })A second season was released on June 17th, 2021.No relation to the 2007 Warren Ellis comic book series.Compare Fear the Walking Dead, another zombie prequel series set before the events of the main work. | |

Beware the Living | |
| Black Summer / int_3ef2e095 | comment |
Beware the Living: Downplayed in Season 1 with the army deserters and the teenage survivors in the school, who are serious threats, but the undead are the main concern. After the Time Skip in Season 2, however, it's played much straighter, with different survivor groups now having begun to actively hunt and kill each other over supplies, and eventually passage on the plane that's been doing supply drops. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
| Black Summer / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: Rose, Spears, and Sun make it to the stadium, and find Rose's daughter alive and well, having managed to survive due to a pilfered handgun and the protection of another survivor. However, all the other survivors are dead, there's no rescue coming, and only the relative safety of the abandoned safe zone prevents this from being a Bolivian Army Ending. Even worse is that Lance is separated from the others after arriving at the stadium, and flees alone, his fate unknown.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |

AirVentEscape | |
| Black Summer / int_81f468bb | comment |
Air Vent Escape: When the group robs the armory in episode 6, Sun and Manny get in and out using the facility air vents. Manny is killed by some stray gunfire from below when the zombies attack and revives inside the air vent, forcing Sun to flee for her life. She's barely saved in time by Spears. | |
