Marvel Zombies Return #1
In *Marvel Zombies Return #1*, the zombie-infected Spider-Man and Giant-Man crash into Earth Z during the era of *Amazing Spider-Man #68*, bringing their ravenous hunger to a world already teetering on the edge. As the zombie Spider-Man tries to reclaim his heroic instincts, his actions spiral into chaos, turning the Sinister Six into zombies and claiming the lives of Peter Parker’s closest allies. Meanwhile, Earth Z’s Spider-Man falls to a vengeful Sandman, and Giant-Man makes a shocking meal of the Watcher—Uatu—leaving the universe in desperate peril. Written by Fred Van Lente and illustrated with chilling precision by Nick Dragotta, with colors by Lee Loughridge and letters by Simon Bowland, the cover by Arthur Suydam captures the grim spectacle in stark, haunting detail.
