DC Comics taking on Marvel Zombies with Zombie Superman? – Geekstir

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”.

    Spider-Man has powers. Batman is just very skilled at martial arts and junk. Of course Spider-Man could beat him.

    I think what’s being missed about all of this is that while the Black Lanterns are getting the most attention and that’s where the comparisons to Marvel Zombies is coming from while so far the Black Lanterns are only one part of the story and not actually the whole story.
