i just read it yesterday and i got into it cause magneto got eaten up lol
anyone read this?
It's brilliant and there's a crossover/sequel including Ash of the Army of Darkness Franchize.
Bon apetitte.
i just have a question how did it started?
I believe it started in the pages of Ultimate Fantastic Four, where the Ultimate Reed was contacted by the Zombie universe's Reed, in an attempt to find another Earth full of people to eat. I understand something happened to the zombie team in UFF, which would be why they don't appear at all in Marvel Zombies. I'm not 100% sure on all the backstory, but that's what I've gathered so far.
The aforementioned AOD crossover touches on alot more backstory of the Marvel Zombieverse, it's actually a prequel rather then a sequel.
The Zombie F4 were trapped in the Ultimate universe.

It started with Magneto of the zombieverse trying to purge humanity with a contagion, but instead unleashed the zombie plague. It probably could have been contained effectively, had Zombieverse Reed not become infatuated with the "improvements" the zombie condition made and infected his whole team.
The Marvel Zombies also have been apearing in Black Panther's Mag (after they have devoured Galactus and are now cosmic powered)

actually its was quicksilver that caused it to spread
and the virus supposedly came from the after life, when ash attacked a infected sentry/superman
sentry/superman!?

He's pointing out that Sentry is a superman inspired character, because most other people havent noticed or something. :rolleyes:

actually i was pointing it out, due to the fact that the original sentry zombie had dark hair in the orginal marvel zombies and at one time was going to be dressed in blue.
Marvel Zombies vs the DCU? With the power cosmic, they would be hard pressed not to destroy everyone. Especially with the brains of Luke Cage and the hunger of Hulk. I think that should be the next big croosover.
I think the Marvel Zombies, while funny as a single mini-series, is a concept now getting flogged like an (un)dead horse.

wow! and the humans?
The norms were supposedly all eaten within the first couple days, worldwide.
[spoiler] However, the zombie heroes theorized that there could be pockets still in existance, hidden in places, and were trying to organize to start searching for them when the big G showed up. After that, if they stayed on Earth long enough, I'm sure they got all of them, but the fact that Asteroid M was left alone suggests that they left soon afterwards to find full planets, rather than search for a couple crumbs here & there. Remains to be seen.[/spoiler]
Honestly, I think intergrating the Marvel Zombies into main Marvel continuity is a big mistake, especially how high powered they've made them (power cosmic plus existing powers PLUS hard to kill, PLUS highly infectious...) "MZ" may work as a "What If" type story, but honestly, using them in the main Marvel U is probably a bad thing, espeically the way writing has been going lately.
Yeah, I hope they keep revisiting the zombie universe but not TOO often.
I guess for me the appeal is that I had heard there was a series called Marvel Zombies and everybody was loving it but no clue as to what It was about, I thought it was satires for marvel fanatics (or zombies). Then I pick one up on the comic store and there's brains being muched... huge shock value for me and I was hooked.
The ash series is great so far too although almost too pretty for the subject matter.
