Despite his best efforts to cling to his fantasies, reality has landed on Jack Chandler's doorstep...in the form of a bullet. The arrival of outsiders to Jack's hidden oasis of a rural community forces him to confront the zombie apocalypse he has been hiding from, and pick up arms to protect his undead family.
Theres some very clever themtic elelments that are being written into the substance of Brombals story. It all feels so remarkable well-executed on so many levels. Its refreshing to know that the zobmie genre still has some life in tit after all of these years. Braombal has done a remarkable job of bringing that life to the page in a deeply engaging sort of a story that crawls right into the heart of horror and finds its way into a very c ozy kind of shadow that explores the nature of human connection and the driving need for human survival at all costs.

Zombie stories are still a dime a dozen these days. And most of them follow very similar patterns. This series and its heavily emotional core stands out among the rest. Everything Dead & Dying #2 is a powerful look at how living in the past can separate one from the present, even in dire circumstances. Read Full Review
