It's difficult to accept a zombie Wolverine. It's the healing ability. That clause always gets in the way. It doesn't allow me to fully accept a zombie Logan. That aside, there shouldn't be anything that would stop me from enjoying the Marvel Zombie series, right? If only.

The first volume didn't pan well for me, merely ranking an average review. Marvel Zombies 2, on the other hand, is merely a waste of time. It's so awful, I fear pursuing the series any further just to save me the money and agony - just a note, I purchased the two volumes together.

40 years has passed since the events of volume one and the zombie heroes have devoured the entire universe. Back on Earth, an aging T'Challa is the elected leader of New Wankanda on the verge of an Acolyte uprising. When his assassination is botched, he finds himself mortally injured. The only person with a cure is zombie Wasp, who bites the dying leader in order to save his life. As the uprising reaches its heights, it is trampled by the return of zombie heroes. The battle of the interdimensional device begins. However, zombies are shown their proverbial mirror-selves and a decision must be made.

I remember when I first heard of Marvel Zombies. I was sitting in the aisle at Hastings, scanning the graphic novels when a guy walks up to me and starts talking about it. I love zombies. I love Marvel. What's to stop me from loving this idea? Apparently the execution. The art is great. It ranges from comical to horror to the seriousness of the matter to the completely cliche - check out the ending. The writing and storyline on the other hand. Are you serious? Makes one wonder what the hell Robert Kirkman was aiming for. You know, other than a paycheck. ( )

If nothing else, this was a quick read. The story is just ok. It takes place 40 years after the first Marvel Zombies series as the zombified heroes who had left Earth come back hoping to find a new source of food. Meanwhile, Wakanda seems to be the only human kingdom to have survived the zombie apocalypse the zombie heroes unleashed. I think the best part of this series is the art. As I said, the story was ok, but it was not great. For me, knowing that Kirkman, author of The Walking Dead, was the author here, somehow, I think I expected a bit more.

If you are a fan of the zombie story genre, and you happen to be a Marvel fan (as in a pretty hardcore fan), you will probably like this. For more casual Marvel readers, this may just be so-so. ( )

Fun and brains with all the superheroes. I love Kirkman, his brain is my flavor of entertainment. If I was a zombie he'd be on the menu. LOL Seriously they guy writes at the top of my fun zone. This is the first book I've read in the series and did I love seeing all these good guys get down dirty and hangry. Bit's fallen off, cut off, rotted off, dirty suits, bad attitudes, it was all so new. Oh but the best was seeing them aged, old chunky monkeys LOL I've got to go get book 1 now. Enjoy my friends and watch your hunger, don;t get hangry. ( )

The first Marvel Zombies miniseries by Robert Kirkman (of 'The Walking Dead' fame) was in turns hilarious, shocking, novel and entertaining. This sequel series loses the novelty and shock value and doesn't quiet maintain the same level of hilarity or entertainment. It doesn't really add much to the first which was perfect all by itself except that its ending sets up the possibility of more sequels. ( )

It was better than the last one though I find the "cure" idea a bit simplistic. ( )
