About the series
A 2008 Marvel miniseries that resurrects the classic Atlas-era horror character, The Zombie: Simon Garth is a four-issue descent into Southern Gothic dread. Writer-artist Kyle Hotz, joined by co-writer Eric Powell, brings a grotesque, textured sensibility to the tale of the undead businessman, exploring his cursed existence with moody, atmospheric art. This series stands out for its commitment to horror as a genre, distinct from the superheroics of the era, and for Hotz’s singular, visceral vision of the character.
