Having shed the trappings of the zombie apocalypse setting the series had embraced, all that was left was a confrontation with the primordial creature that caused so much death and loss. The creature itself is nothing particularly special, nor is the supposed "final battle," but it perfectly embodies the series as a whole. Read Full Review

It truly does feel like an ending, one that slams the door closed with style. It's probably destined to go down as one of the all-time best Elseworlds to come out of the modern era. Read Full Review

The DCeased saga is one of the very few tales I own digitally, buy every individual issue of, and also have hardcover collections for. If you've never read it, please pick up the collected editions, because these are tales that will entertain, shock, terrify, inspire, and delight. That's about the highest praise I can give.

Tom Taylor, Trevor Hairsine, and Lucas Meyer bring the end to the end of the DC Universe. We've seen some fantastic team-ups and combinations, but there are still more before they go. You'll see what happens when you piss off a Waynea resounding conclusion to a beautiful series. Read Full Review

DCeased, much like Injustice and Dark Knights of Steel, gives me something that the mainline books can never give me and Tom Taylor delivers it in spades. Real stakes, real emotions, a sense of true loss and victory, and radical changes to the world at hand. What we get here is done incredibly well in balancing so many characters and working with brief subplots so that it feels real and earned. The artwork is strong, the characters look great, and the scale hits just right. And Erebos has the perfect look here at the end. This was a great run across each of the series and it culminate well into this hard-won victory that leaves you somewhat exhausted with all that these characters have been through. Very recommended.

The journey was not always perfect but ultimately Tom Taylor, Trevor Hairsine, and Lucas Meyer delivered when it counted with DCeased: War Of The Undead Gods #8 being a strong end to the story. The DCeased Universe as a whole will easily go down as one of the best stories in DC Comics modern era. Read Full Review

War of the Undead Gods continues the DCeased series long after its expiration date. While mostly a morbid story, basking in the carnage and despair of notable characters, Undead Gods manages to tell a story about hope within hopelessness. Albeit, the story only really accomplishes this after killing whole families and civilizations for impact. I found some of the gnarly “what if” aspects such as Alfred as the Spectre, undead Mr. Mxyzptlk, and Yellow Lantern Darkseid some of the only likeable standouts. However, none of these superficial aspects do much to save the morbid storytelling or maddeningly distorted artwork. Outside of the ending, the series has disappointed my expectations for deeper storytelling. Overall, I can only hope Taylor finally lays DCeased to rest. Read Full Review

What a beautiful finale

Decent finale however DCEASED should have ended with Dead Planet.

This was an underwhelming finale. It just went by way too quickly. Tom Taylor writes very decompressed stories, so when suddenly the pace shifts to very quick, it throws off the flow of the read.

I've really like Taylor's previous work but this series didn't do much for me. I'm a huge Damian fan but his sacrifice had zero feels and didn't capture that previous magic Taylor's excelled at in Injustice or Unkillables.

Eh, fanservice galore, prepackaged "and now someone sacrifices themselves" moment to try to get the waterworks going I guess but I dunno, everything feels so random and rushed it kinda falls flat.

I'm going to go against the current because I wasn't feeling this finale at all. Everything felt rushed and manufactred, like Taylor wrote himself into a corner and didn't know what he wanted out of this miniseries or universe. Dceased left the zombie genre a while ago for some reason (this became a weird crisis event were that has nothign to do with zombies, why?), but in this case it wasn't even clear if he believed in his own premise. The undead gods are easily beaten and so is this Erebos, who basically appears for a couple of pages and then bye. There's some last minute sacrifice that happens... Just because, I guess? It happens so that Taylor can desperately try to infuse some emotion into this lifeless sequel, but it frankly doesn't work that well because the story is just so randomized at this point. And it leaves so many plot points left haning there it's weird this is supposed to be a super-conclusive ending, I also feel the person that got to be sacrificed didn't feel that important in this plot for the landing to stick. Some interactions were nice though. more
