Zombie

A member of the monster-staffed S.H.I.E.L.D. unit known as the Howling Commandos, Zombie serves alongside classic Marvel creatures like Frankenstein's Monster and the Living Mummy in a supernatural strike force assembled to handle threats beyond ordinary agents.

Shambling out of Marvel's modern era with a gloriously macabre pedigree, Zombie made their debut in the 2005 launch of Nick Fury's Howling Commandos — a title that gleefully assembled some of the Marvel Universe's most delightfully monstrous figures under one banner. Created by Keith Giffen and Eduardo Francisco, this character keeps extraordinary company, sharing pages with the likes of Frankenstein Monster, Living Mummy, and N'Kantu, which tells you everything about the wonderfully weird corner of Marvel they inhabit. With appearances spanning into S.H.I.E.L.D. and a nod from the All-New Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z, Zombie has earned a modest but genuine footprint in the canon — a cult curiosity for collectors who love their superhero universe with a healthy dose of horror.
