So if you’re into comic books, I’m sure you’ve heard of Marvel Zombies. It’s probably my most favorite Marvel series. Actually, Marvel Zombies vs Army of Darkness and Marvel Zombies 1 & 2 are my favorites, I haven’t read Marvel Zombies 3 yet.
So in MZ, all the superheroes are, as I’m sure you’ve guessed, zombies. They devour Earth of all humans and move on to other planets searching for more flesh and brains. That’s a pretty lame summary, but I don’t want to spoil it for anybody who hasn’t read it yet.
Well, it looks like DC Comics is starting their “own” zombie spin off. I’m not really a DC guy; sure, I like Batman, I grew up watching Batman cartoons and playing with Batman action figures, but I never read the comics.
DC Comics is calling this series “The Blackest Night”, and they’re calling the zombies “Black Lanterns” for some reason…It’ll probably be a good series, but I’m not sure if I’ll be reading it. The art at the top of the post is Superman as a “Black Lantern”.
