Marvel Zombies

"Whoever makes the kill gets double rations."
I don't believe that putting zombies into something automatically makes it better; more often than not it makes it worse.
The zombie metaphor has been done to death (no pun intended) and outside of the early George A. Romero films it's mostly been done badly. Marvel Zombies sets a new low, even for Marvel.
It's written by Robert Kirkman, the guy that writes The Walking Dead. I've not read TWD. But it’s been selling well, so I'm assuming it’s a lot better than MZ. And I sincerely hope it's better than TWD TV series.
The plot is as thin as something I'd write. The heroes/villains are hungry. There's some gore. They eat. They get hungry. There's gore. They eat. They get hungry, etc. Yawn.
The book collects together Marvel Zombies #1-5.
Verdict:
