This issue succeeds in two difficult hybridizations: Making a superhero/zombie mashup work and making Japanese and American comics sensibilities mesh on the page. Zombies Assemble #1 gets a lot of things right, from the art to the level of gore to the tactical application of humor within the confines of a story that relies on the scary. Read Full Review
When I first heard about this I wondered if the world needed another Marvel Zombie comic. I was wrong. The author does a great job of mixing the Japanese and American styles. Great characterization, fine artwork, some wicked humor, this one has it all. Read Full Review
Dumb
The Mangavengers face off against a weirdly low-energy zombie outbreak that starts by claiming Thor and Black Widow. A huge part of this title's potential appeal is in seeing the MCU Avengers translated into manga form, and the job's done so underwhelmingly that it's hard to imagine this book satisfying anybody. The zombie threat has some slightly interesting twists. The characterization is almost nonsensical , and the plodding, tension-free way our heroes dawdle into action is another big strike against it.
