What would horror month be without zombies? Marvel’s smash series Marvel Zombies is here in trade paperback with a special direct market cover, showing Iron Man–Tony Stark–battling his inner demons: alcohol, and the zombie virus!
By Robert Kirkman of The Walking Dead fame, Marvel Zombies depicts a threat that first came from the skies: a horrific virus that turned nearly every man, woman, and child on Earth into undead zombies. Even Marvel’s greatest heroes, including Captain America, Spider-Man and the Hulk, have succumbed, driven only by one mindless goal: to feed on human flesh. But with only a small number of survivors remaining against this unstoppable tide of hunger, what happens when the zombies finally run out of humans to eat?!
Comic-book fans devoted enough to read only Marvel titles have long been dubbed “Marvel zombies,” but even the most passionate reader could not have predicted the astounding success of this series. Writer Robert Kirkman crafts a shocking, spellbinding tale of a Marvel Universe infected by a worldwide zombie plague. Veteran artist Sean Phillips fleshes out Kirkman’s tale, ably transforming once-familiar Marvel heroes into disturbing visions of decaying flesh and rotting bones.
