Investigating the chilling "Murder That Should Not Be," Inspector Suttle is obliged to visit the East End of London's notorious and dangerous Zone-B. It's the last refuge of the living, where the poor, the free-thinking, the artistic, the liberal and the undoubtedly mortal live surrounded by the fenced-off restless horror. What secrets will Suttle learn there about the case and himself?

    I.N.J Culbard continues to make The New Deadwardians one of the best looking books on the stands as well. It's hard to imagine another artist making a book about vampires and zombies look so graceful and elegant. Every time you see Suttle's eyes, you're reminded how dead he is, regardless of the fact that he is walking around talking. There is a simple beauty to his work; it's stunning, really. Dead never looked so good. Read Full Review

    This is another wonderful issue of Deadwardians. Even though it lost some of it's differentiating cleanliness, it is still a very good comic. Why is this just a miniseries? I'd love a 30-issue run of this stuff. Read Full Review

    Culbard's art is very clean even when its depicting fllth, and it's refreshing compared to so much of the muddy art we see in a lot of these stories dealing with darkness and creature mystery. Abnett's made us like and respect Suttle despite his prim standoffishness, and set up this post-zombie society in an interesting fashion. The New Deadwardians is an interesting read if you'd like a less obnoxious take on the classic undead tropes, so check it out while it lasts. Read Full Review

    Overall, this is steadily shaping up to be a fantastic little series, and continues to impress three months in. With such an original concept and execution, it's a welcome addition to the current comic environment. It's definitely something I plan on keeping up with in the months leading up to the finish.

    "The New Deadwardians" #3 continues the high level of quality that the first two issues began. This comic might be just an 8-issue mini-series, but hopefully it's the first of many. There's enough story potential here to go on for a long time to come. Even if this is all we get, though, I'm along for the ride. Who knew zombies and vampires could be fun and inventive again?
