There's a really fun comic mini-series out right now called MARVEL ZOMBIES. What a great name as loyal Marvel fans have always been referred to as "Marvel Zombies". One of the fun aspects of the series is the cover art, which depicts a classic Marvel cover but zombiefied out. And each reprinting has a new cover.

SYNOPSIS: Parallel Marvel Universe where a zombie virus hit. Within 24hrs, it has spread across the entire globe. All (most) that remain are the super powered people who had the advantage to survive over regular humans and feed feed feed. When hungry, they are full fledged zombie eating machines. However, after they feed, they return once again to semi-normal rational thinking and feelings. Spiderman/Peter Parker always flips out and goes on a guilt driven maddening rant after his mind becomes clear from a feeding; he ate Aunt May and MJ! Unfortunately for the heroes, the hunger comes back very quickly, so they don't have much time to think of a way for a cure. Plus, since everyone's pretty much dead or a zombie themselves, the food supply is extremely short - there ARE some remaining mutants & humans around trying to survive, led by Magneto. It's written by Robert Kirkman, who's kicking ass in his regular zombie book "The Walking Dead." The book is a great zombie marvel comic! It's more FUN than say "Horror". So if you're into Marvel Comics and you like Zombies, this book is for you! The story actually began in Ultimate Fantastic Four #21-23 which then led into the Marvel Zombies mini-series (but it's NOT an Ultimate title). The series is 5-issues long with #4 being the latest issue on the stands.
