Massive Marvel News: Disney will Release “Marve Zombies” Every October for Years to Come

In 2003, Robert Kirkman unleashed The Walking Dead onto comic book shop shelves. It forever changed zombie lore and mainstream pop culture. What began as a relentless, black-and-white survival marathon eventually morphed into AMC’s monstrous television juggernaut in 2010. Over the past decade and a half, Kirkman’s epic paved the way for endless stories. It proved that audiences cannot get enough of flesh-eating chaos. Heroic Brain-Eaters Take Over Recognizing Kirkman’s storytelling magic early on, Marvel Comics wisely recruited him to orchestrate the legendary Marvel Zombies limited series. Instead of generic background ghouls, Kirkman gleefully transformed Earth’s Mightiest Heroes into grotesque, flesh-obsessed monstrosities. The horrific concept exploded into an immediate fan favorite. It spawned countless gruesome comic sequels and eventually crawled onto the screen in an episode of Disney’s “What If…?” Fresh Animated Horrors Unleashed Building on that animated mayhem, Marvel Television and Animation dropped a massive bombshell during their latest New York Comic Con panel. Following the success of the

Watch the Trailer for the Film Adaptation of Garth Ennis’ Brutal Comic ‘Crossed’

A feature film adaptation of the notoriously violent comic book series Crossed is coming. The Sadness filmmaker Rob Jabbaz is directing. The original comic creator Garth Ennis wrote the screenplay based on the first ten issues illustrated by Jacen Burrows. It’s hard to believe, but Crossed is more brutal than either “The Boys” or “Preacher,” and that’s saying a lot. Genre fans can now catch their very first preview with the release of a red-band teaser trailer. Dystopian Storyline and Terrifying Villains The dark narrative centers on a mysterious contagion that causes victims to develop a cross-shaped rash on their faces. It triggers the infected to act out their most horrific impulses. Unlike traditional slow-moving zombies, these infected maniacs retain their human intelligence while indulging in uninhibited violence and torture. A small group of survivors must stick together to survive as they attempt a dangerous trek north to escape the chaos. Ensemble Cast and Survival Characters Devin Druid and Ash
