Redead

Thanks in part to the wildly inappropriate image to the right, the Marvel Zombies have hopefully seen their last bit of daylight for a while. I liked the first series, thought it was neat idea and great title. Then the spin-offs came.
Tie-in after tie-in diluted the concept and made it a joke. The variant covers were cool for the reprints, but when they popped up in random books with no Zombie influence, it was done. Brad Curran over at Comics Should Be Good would appear to agree with me.
You ever get sick of something due to overexposure that you hate it before you've even seen/read/heard it? I get like that with certain pop culture phenoms, from Napoleon Dynamite to the Jimmy Kimmel is having revenge sex with Ben Affleck meme. Very few comics reach the level of pop culture oversaturation for me, mostly because comics have such an anemic presence in pop culture, and I happen to have a lot of affection for most of the superhero icons. That said, Marvel Zombies? It's totally on my last damn nerve, and I've never read a full issue of it.
He goes on to discuss the Zombies in more detail, which you can find here.






yeah i was done with the zombies as soon as the second series started.
Now they are just lame.
