☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis 2015 collection from DC brings together the six-issue G.I. Zombie series, reimagining the classic Star-Spangled War Stories concept with a supernatural twist. It follows the undead soldier Jared Kabe, a World War II veteran turned zombie, as he fights for the U.S. government against monstrous threats while grappling with his own cursed existence. The volume collects issues #1–6 of the 2015 series, written by Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray with art by Scott Hampton.
In "G.I. Zombie" #1, written by Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray and illustrated by Scott Hampton, a desperate race unfolds as Jared awakens in a remote Utah facility, hunted by forces that see him as nothing more than a corpse to be incinerated. With time running out and the compound on the verge of annihilation, Libby, Cat, and Tiffany must flee with Forrest as a nuclear detonation sequence begins—leaving Jared's true nature and the full scope of the threat still shrouded in mystery. The cover by Darwyn Cooke captures the tension with a stark, haunting image that sets the tone for the chaos to come.
In "G.I. Zombie," a tense game of trust unfolds when Tiffany draws close to the enigmatic Duke, only to be tested in a chilling way: he demands she kill a federal agent he's captured. She complies, but the real danger lies in the truth—her supposed ally is no ordinary man, and his unkillable nature is just the beginning of a far darker secret.
In "G.I. Zombie," Carmen and Kabe launch a high-stakes mission to infiltrate Duke's operation, only to uncover a threat far deadlier than they imagined. As the mission spirals into chaos, Kabe finds himself on a desperate, explosive ride with a missile aimed at Washington D.C.
In "Small Town Welcome," Jared’s desperate act unleashes a terrifying outbreak in rural Tennessee, turning townsfolk and creatures alike into something unrecognizable. As the chaos spreads, Carmen fights to stay hidden while being dragged toward a hidden facility, her next move as uncertain as the world around her.
In "Exit Strategy," Jared battles through the zombified streets of Sutterville, Tennessee, clinging to survival as the dead close in. When Gravedigger arrives with reinforcements, the tide shifts—but just as hope rises, Carmen is whisked away to a secret refuge beneath a Utah spa resort, leaving the fate of both in uncertain hands.
In "Door-to-Door Delivery," Jared, a man pushed to his limits, is given a brutal means to survive—consuming a convicted killer—only to set out on a desperate search for Carmen. As he moves through a fractured world, he’s shot by Libby, while Carmen uncovers the chilling truth behind her captors’ apocalyptic ambitions.
In "The Living Desert," Libby brings Jared to a Utah facility under the assumption he's a corpse to be incinerated, but the moment he's inside, he begins searching for Carmen—unaware of the danger he's already unleashed. With the mission compromised, Forrest initiates a nuclear detonation to destroy the compound, ordering Libby, Cat, and Tiffany to follow him to safety before the countdown ends.
In the scorched aftermath of a nuclear detonation that turns the Utah desert into a graveyard of the infected, Jared flees just in time, pursued by the dead and the spreading gas. With survivors scattered and trust fraying, Forrest leads a small group toward a rumored safe haven in California, while Carmen, aware her deception can’t last, makes a final, urgent call to Gravedigger—knowing the line might be her last chance.
