1: RUBBISH!
I enjoyed both the original, and Dead Days. This however, sucked on all levels. Poor art, Poor story, Pure RUBBISH!
|
2: Not very memorable, but fun!
Ash meets the Marvel Zombie Universe and pretty much lets them destroy themselves, he's just along for the ride, as he passes through their dimension.
This is a fun read, but really has no memorable moments. The art, however, is great! I'm always disappointed by comics that have great cover art but lame interiors, but this was a pleasant surprise.
I haven't been interested in any other Marvel Zombie books, but the AOD factor was enough to make me pick this one up.
Buy it if you like pointless crossovers.

3: Not so sure I liked this one very much...
***Warning, A little bit of spoiler info in the review
I liked Marvel Zombies, I thought it was a really cool idea that deserved my attention. And I love Army of Darkness (Evil Dead 2) a lot. I thought the cross would be double fun. However, I found myself being a little disappointed in the end. The art was fantastic, but the whole story felt a little cheesy (which I do understand is what makes AoD good) and unfinished with very little explanation as to how the virus even found its way to earth. There were even parts of the story where you can really tell the authors ran out of ideas and just started taking short cuts and making crap up. For instance: the part where Ash needed a diversion to get to the ship to make it to Doom's castle and the zombie children were in the way. The authors just made up a team of somebodies as a diversion then said they were brutal taken out off page. I laughed pretty hard, but realized this was just part of the easy way out mentality of the authors. If I had started reading this story with no expectations I probably would have liked it a lot more. But I read Marvel Zombies first, then this one, so I expected a better back story and a little more serious storyline with Ash's off humor as an added bonus. If I could do it over again I would have read this one first then Marvel Zombies, I think I would have found the 2 graphic novels much better in that order.

4: Excellent Item...I highly recommend this seller!
I highly recommend this item. It's a great story, and the artwork is phenomenal. The seller was quick, reasonable and I recieved the item in pristine condition. I highly recommend both this book and the seller to anyone!

5: A cheap (expensive?) marketing crossover
The original Marvel Zombies miniseries was clever, and built on the storyline begun in Ultimate Fantastic Four. This mini-series just continues the gorefest without adding anything new to the Marvel aspect. The inclusion of Ash was somewhat intriguing at first, but everyone reading this story knows nothing will happen to him. We also know every Marvel character will end up dead. I bought this book because my son enjoys the Zombie storyline, and is a big fan of "Army of Darkness". I suppose the best thing to say about this story is that it is better to have read it than to wonder if it is any good. Sadly, the ending takes that away, as well.
