Marvel Comics is really milking the shit out of this series, which has mixed it’s most popular and b-level characters with a raging world full of zombies and multi-company crossovers, once again. In April you will be able to read more about Machine Man and his continuing adventures with zombies in the five-part series Marvel Zombies 5 (aka MZ5). While the basis for this series sounds more interesting than Marvel Zombies 3 & 4, I hold my praise until reading it. Writer Fred Van Lente had this to say about the next story-arc and it’s multiverse zombie road trip vibe:

“…each issue of MARVEL ZOMBIES 5 features a variation on the zombie theme from throughout popular culture. From the slow-moving George Romero style to the crazed infected from “28 Days Later” to even the Deadites in “Evil Dead,” the writer equates the limited series to a “smorgasbord [or] salad bar for the zombie connoisseur.” But as variety is the spice of life, Van Lente decided to sweeten things up even more by also setting each issue against an assortment of backdrops.

“We’ve got zombies in the Old West, we’ve got zombies in Killraven’s War of the Worlds, we’ve got zombies in Camelot,” he exclaims. “I like the storytelling challenge of taking a straight-forward genre and twisting it into pretzels. It’s also fun to come up with new ways to eviscerate zombies.”

Just a quick note to let our readers know that Comic Book Resources posted their 30 Most Important Comics of the Decade, Part 1 today, with Robert Kirkman’s The Walking Dead coming in at #28. I think it should be higher in ranking (even based solely on it’s importance to comic storytelling or it’s importance in helping revitalize Image Comics), but I’ll wait until the second half of the list is released to finalize my opinion.

It will cost you $59.99, but being that it is collecting issues #1-48 of the best zombie comic book of all time, The Walking Dead Compendium One will be worth every fucking dollar you spend on it. Coming in at a whopping 1088 pages, this will be a huge tome for your zombie reading pleasure. It’s scheduled for release from Image Comics on May 6, comes complete with a new cover by illustrator Charlie Adlard and is available for a limited time only. I for one will own this awesome collection come May 6.
