The Mocking Dead

From 2013, Dynamite Entertainment's The Mocking Dead is a five-issue miniseries by writer Fred Van Lente and artist Max Dunbar. The series reimagines Edgar Allan Poe's classic poem "The Raven" as a zombie horror comedy, with a wisecracking, undead raven serving as a reluctant hero in a post-apocalyptic world. Its clever mashup of literary satire and genre thrills offers a fresh, darkly humorous spin on both the source material and the zombie craze of the era.
