Zero Patrol is an adaptation of Esteban Maroto's 30-year old action/adventure series originally published in Spanish under the title "Cinco Por Infinito" ("Five For Infinity"). Neal Adams reworked some of the panels and story elements and re-dialogued the series to come up with a somewhat new story.

The Zero Patrol consists of five people whose lives are altered when they are endowed with extra-normal powers and abilities; they become intergalactic guardians who travel among the stars, saving damsels in distress and planets from destruction. The five characters include an ex-CIA agent, a Reed Richards "brainy" type, a psychic, and a pop star. The Grand Comics Database says the following about this series: reprinted from "Legionarios del Espacio" (alternate title "Cinco por el Infinito"). The original work was by Esteban Maroto with some changes made by Neal Adams.

When Neal Adams was living in New York, he spent a certain amount of his time in Harlem and in Spanish Harlem. His reason for travelling from Brooklyn to Harlem was simple curiosity. Two of the things he discovered there were a comic magazine called Delta 99, and a comic magazine called Legionarios Del Espacio, or Legionnaires of Space. Sometimes, the second magazine was also called Cinco Por El Infinito (Five For Infinity). Although Adams liked Delta 99, he loved Legionarios. Unfortunately, Legionarios has always appeared in Spanish, never in English.


As years went by, the artist of the feature, Esteban Maroto, went on to other features and other projects, and some of them... many of them... have appeared in American magazines. Esteban Maroto has become known to an American audience, but never have Americans seen his early work.

This, then, is Legionarios Del Espacio, updated a little because much time has gone by.
