Comic Book Of The Half: Marvel Zombies #1

Marvel Zombies is a great comic and this one is worth
being the, 'Comic Book Of The Half'!

That's right folks, I am going to have to say that I rather enjoy this series quite a bit, I haven't read the entire series, but this first one set up a fantastic Marvel horror series, with all of your favorite heroes as Zombies! 

So if you want to check out a Marvel comic that could be said to be like, 'The Avengers' and, 'The Walking Dead', then this is definitely one to start off with!

Marvel Zombies #2 (2005) - #Comic #Review

Earth's mightiest heroes become earth's deadest heroes in this great alternative story line series!

So when I was a kid I got real heavily invested in reading both Marvel and DC comics of the era. These comics had a ton of both separate, as well as connected story lines that I am going to say were both fun as well as imaginative, and they gave me a nice bit of background to a lot of the comic book movies that have come out in the last 25 years or so!

With that said though, roughly since about the late 90s I kind of left the world of comics until recently... Since coming back to the world of comics I have not only discovered a whole plethora of comics to enjoy, but I have found one particular series that is not just AWESOME! But is very much a comic book series for the times, that comic book series being: Marvel Zombies!

The heroes we all know and love have become a part of the walking dead... I mean how cool is that!

I haven't had a chance to read to many of them yet, but I have read the first two so far, and this maybe strange to say, but as good as the first comic book was, the second one is so much better!

Imagine what the MCU would be if they ended up in a world similar to, 'The Walking Dead'... But with them as the walking dead! 

So far from what I can tell, the story in this series has to do with all of the heroes of that Earth being transformed in to Zombies with some semblance of intelligence, and the acceptance that they are the walking dead, and that they will continue to eat flesh... But what would a race of super-zombies do?

This comic, hell this series, rocks! 

Eat just about everything left on the Earth of course! so when these Zombies are scavenging for the last remnant of humanity and super powered entities, that is of course when Galactus comes to finish off the rest of them... Or maybe vice-versa, and the heroes will finish him off!

I have to admit that so far the only thing that I didn't like is the fact that the majority of the artwork for the Zombies seems to be only that they're lips have rotted away... With a few minor exceptions, that seems to be it!

Anyway, check this one out after you have read the first one, I think that you guys might really like it!

Marvel Zombies #1 (2005) - Comic Review

Alright, so I know it has been awhile since I have written another review... (It's been a busy ride,) but I am glad to be able to get back to writing these blogs/reviews... Because I hope you guys enjoy them as much as I enjoy writing them!

With that in mind I have a special treat for you guys, a marvel comic sub-series that I thought that not only would you guys enjoy, but I thought that with Halloween coming up, that this comic would be extremely appropriate and fun!

That comic book series of course being the, 'Marvel Zombie' series!

A fantastic series!

Now I don't fully know the full story on this series yet being that I have only read the first comic, but it does appear that just about all of the heroes that we have all come to love have become Zombies! (Think, 'The Avengers', 'Spider-Man' and all of the other classics from both the, 'MCU' and Fox's, 'Marvel Universe' if they were zombies!)

Anyway, in the beginning of the comic we see a Zombie Spider-Man, Hulk and A bunch of other Zombified super heroes as they are fighting what seems to be the last surviving mutant on Earth... You guessed... The last hero to survive the mutant holocaust, 'Magneto'!

Thor and the gang about to enjoy a meal, and, 'no' Magneto is not a guest at this meal!

Now the thing with these Zombie heroes is that although it is true that they are undead, they still have the ability to think and act as if they were alive, except that they are dead and have no, 'healing factor' anymore, and their powers seemed to have diminish...

But with Galactus's messenger arriving after the Zombie apocalypse, to try and prepare the planet for his arrival, maybe this Earth is doomed? Or is the Zombie apocalypse really over?

As for this comic, the truth is, is I am not giving it entirely all of the justice it deserves, I mean this comic is pretty brilliant, having started out in the comic book equivalent of a George A. Romero movie, to reading about some of the more hilarious side effects of what these new, 'Zombie Heroes' are up to because they are dead, the comic is just absolutely brilliant!

As a matter of fact, the only real problem that I have with this comic is the fact that it is to short! But if you are a comic fan, an MCU fan, or just a horror fan, or a fan of one of these combinations... Then this comic is one you should check out! I mean it is pretty awesome!
