The Marvel Zombies have devoured most of the living creatures in the universe and now they've got their sights set on something new: your local comic shop! This October, the Marvel Zombies will be everywhere, as select Marvel titles will celebrate All Hallow's Eve with a big surprise: Zombie variant covers! Featuring the top artists in the industry re-interpreting Marvel characters as the undead, these top secret covers won't be seen online, in print or anywhere before their release!

If that wasn't enough to satisfy your hunger for more of the award winning monster-piece that took the world by storm, then prepare yourself for Civil War within the Marvel Zombie ranks in Marvel Zombies 2 #1 (of 5). After eating everything—and everyone—in the universe, the Zombies return home to Earth, hoping to devour the remaining humans…but are confronted with something that will cause them to take sides against each other! Acclaimed author Robert Kirkman and Eisner-winning artist Sean Phillips re-team with red-hot cover artist Arthur Suydam for the can't-miss sequel of the year! Plus, a special behind the scenes look at the Marvel Zombies phenomenon arrives in Marvel Spotlight: Marvel Zombies, with never before seen art and interviews!

For those fans that missed the now-classic Marvel Zombies HC in its first four undead-approved printings, don't miss out on the brand new fifth-printing, featuring a brand new zombie Mary Jane cover by Suydam! Plus, don't forget the Marvel Zombies Dead Days Poster, featuring a bold new version of the classic cover to X-Men #1; Marvel Zombies: The Covers HC, bringing together some of the industries most acclaimed artists, from Greg Land to Sean Phillips to Arthur Suydam, and showcasing their jaw-dropping zombie art, with an all new cover by Arthur Suydam; and Marvel Zombies/Army Of Darkness HC, collecting the sold-out Marvel/Dynamite limited series teaming Ash, from the classic Army of Darkness films, with the remaining humans in the Zombie-verse

It's time to celebrate with the Marvel Zombies, as they return to our galaxy—and invade comic shops around the Earth! This October, take a bite out of the comic book phenomenon that puts the "Mmmmmmmmmmm" in Marvel!
