Robert Kirkman, the Zombie King of Comics (George A. Romero is still overall zombie king), has written Marvel Zombies 2, slatted for early October. To say I’m excited about this is an understatement. It seems this sequel will deal with a zombie Civil War. First off, there’s the cover that was floating around for quite Continue Reading »
During the Civil War event earlier this year I was pretty bored. I was just getting in to Marvel and decided to read the entire event… every single tie-in. That was a mistake.

Captain America’s death is the subject of the Word on Comedy Central’s Colbert Report.
