 Ok read October 30, 2008
This book was ok, but not really that much depth to it. It also leaves more questions than answers, which is usually a good thing, but in this instance it wasn't. I had just read the watchmen before I read this so it seemed pretty weak.
 wonderfully unsettling October 23, 2008
I purchased and read Marvel Zombies 1 and 2 and I was intriguingly appalled at the behavior and condition of my childhood heros. To see them shamelessly (except for spidey) pursuing and devouring every living body in sight is profoundly disturbing, but its so riveting. I love to hate them but I do want some one to stop them. I'm so confused, what to do, what to do!!! I just wished they didn't enjoy it so. I want more!!!I want more!!!!
Marvel+Zombies=Excellent Read October 19, 2008
Before I get started I would like to say this...I do not like zombies! They creep me out! With that aside though, I have to say I loved this book. It seemed like a stupid concept but, the way it was excecuted was brilliant. It would have been so easy to screw this up and make it another stupid one shot. Robert Kirkman's writing is spot on. But, in my opinion, the art is what really steals the show. Now despite the subject matter, this book actually does not have alot of blood and gore. The artist, Sean Phillips, actually uses alot of shadows and darker colors instead of bright reds. I actually find this much more effective because you have to imagine what's happening. I love Kirkman's dark humour in this book. Everytime, I see Spider-Man crying about eating Aunt May and Mary-Jane, I can't help but chuckle. All in all, I absolutley adore this book. Because of this excellent kickoff, I'm going to pick up the whole series.
 Fun read, horrible end to the story September 11, 2008
I loved book 1 and Dead Days, even Army of Darkness crossover. This book though, disappointed so much because of the ending. There was no real solution to the problem and the wrong people were left "alive." I feel cheated a dirty and I hope Marvel has some more side story projects, especially the one about what happens to Ultimate universe Dr. Doom. They left his story wide open.
Venturing too far into standard fare August 5, 2008

While we do have the Marvel Zombies, it feels as if this book is moving them more towards standard comic book fare. By the end, the zombies are no longer the crazy, conflicted, and generally funny group of super heroes gone wrong. They essentially become immortal, cyborg versions of themselves.
