Greetings Ghoul Gang,

Check out this putrid bowl of awesome. Word is that my very favorite freshman comic publisher, Red 5 Comics, are finally getting around to covering issues important to a ghast like myself — a six-issue series starring MY kind. Yes, that’s right, bitches. Zombies!

Kevin Grevioux (Underworld) is putting together the series, titled ZMD: Zombies of Mass Destruction, about zombie military weapons gone bad… real bad.

Check out the official info and images from their press release right here after the jump.

PRESS RELEASE

Air-dropped into the deadliest hot zones, the walking dead of ZMD: Zombies of Mass Destruction indiscriminately infect every last warring insurgent — on either side of the conflict. Specifically engineered to be photosensitive, once enemy infection becomes complete by dawn, both the originals and newly created zombies dissolve as a means to control widespread and accidental zombification. This allows live soldiers to enter and safely occupy the now-combatant-free territory. However, this plan takes a deadly turn when one of the U.S. zombies, dubbed — ZOMBIE ZERO — fails to dissolve at the expected time, and begins to wreak havoc in the Middle East by creating others like him. This leads the U.S. military brass to send in a special operative to quietly take out Zombie Zero and his minions before their existence becomes known to the rest of the world.

ZMD: Zombies of Mass Destruction #1, the first of six bi-monthly issues, will be on shelves this July. To ensure you don’t miss out, contact your local comic shop by May 15 and ask them to pre-order your copy today using Diamond order code MAY084097.
