About the series
In Deadworld: War of the Dead (2012–present, IDW), the zombie apocalypse reaches a new, horrifying peak as the undead legions of the sentient, malevolent entity known as the Necromancer clash with the last surviving human strongholds. This five-issue miniseries expands the grim Deadworld mythology, focusing on the brutal, strategic warfare between the living and the dead. Written by Gary Reed with art by Sami Makkonen, the story deepens the series' signature blend of horror and dark fantasy. It matters as a key chapter in one of independent comics' longest-running zombie sagas, proving that the genre still has fresh, terrifying stories to tell.
