Marvel Zombies is coming back in a different but fitting format as Marvel Zombies: Black, White & Blood will bring readers back to a Marvel Universe where the undead has overtaken its greatest heroes. The new four-issue miniseries will debut with three new stories featuring some of the most beloved Marvel characters but with a horrifying zombie twist.
One story in the anthology will see Garth Ennis return to Marvel alongside Fantastic Four artist Rachael Stott in a dark tale about Matt Murdock. Daredevil’s zombie form has wreaked havoc across what’s left of Earth, leading to someone (possibly the Punisher, considering Ennis’ involvement) trying to take him out for good.
Alex Segura and Javi Fernandez are teaming up for a new Spider-Man story set in the Marvel Zombies universe featuring Peter Parker taking on his closest loved ones in their undead forms. For Spider-Man, it will be one of his most heartbreaking battles yet.
Meanwhile, Ashley Allen and Justin Mason are working on a new Moon Knight story, where Khonshu will try to save his avatar from being transformed into a zombie. Will Khonshu’s protection be enough to keep the hero safe, or is he destined to have a dark fate like many of his fellow heroes?
Gabriele Dell’Otto brings his signature style to Marvel Zombies: Black, White & Blood’s main cover, featuring an undead Wolverine popping his claws out. The cover will also be available as a 1:100 variant. Bjorn Barends’ standard variant features Wolverine and the Hulk in their nightmarish transformations. Leinil Francis Yu’s variant also shows off the two undead heroes fighting in their new forms. Carlos Mango does a horrifying team shot of Earth’s Mightiest zombies in a 1:10 variant, highlighting the unfolding death and destruction. Rafael Albuquerque will draw a yet-to-be-revealed 1:25 variant. Lastly, Mike Deodato Jr. illustrates a 1:50 variant featuring Wolverine paying a deadly visit to an unsuspecting person. CaptCan Comics will have all Incentives available upon release!
AN ALL-NEW ERA OF MARVEL ZOMBIES! The undead plague starts here…and you know it won't stop until everyone's in its clutches! This first of four action-packed, utterly original, gloriously gory anthology issues features Daredevil, Spider-Man, Moon Knight and many, many more Marvel heroes and villains beset by ever-growing zombie hordes! In a brutal, bloodstained world, can hope survive? Or will creeping, gnawing, shambling horror win out at last…?
