The Empire of The Dead

For all the zombie fans out there, in case you didn't know, it's time to hit up your local comic book store!

The Godfather of the modern zombie genre, George A. Romero, has teamed up with Marvel Comics and is in the middle of releasing a series of comics titled "Empire of the Dead".

 The series is about a war between the zombies and the vampires. Set in the future after the zombie apocalypse, vampires control New York City and zombies are the scum of the earth. A war is building between the two groups and the humans that remain will be caught right in the middle. The series is set to run 15 issues with issues 1-4 already out on stands, and issue number 5 is being released tomorrow (which is the last book in act 1). So far it has been an awesome read. In the books we see that zombies understand humans, and can learn. They can also communicate with each other, but cannot be understood by anyone else. Check them out, it's a must have for fans of the zombie genre and more importantly it's written by the Godfather of Zombies, George A. Romero.
