ZombieWorld: Winter's Dregs

In the late 1990s, Dark Horse unleashed ZombieWorld: Winter's Dregs, a four-issue miniseries that turned the zombie genre into a gritty, character-driven survival saga. Written by Bob Fingerman and brought to life with moody, textured art by Tommy Lee Edwards, the story follows a small group of survivors scraping by in a snowbound, undead-infested New York City. Its stark, grounded take on the apocalypse—emphasizing human desperation over gore—helped cement it as a cult-classic entry in the publisher's horror lineup.
