NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD #3
Written by Mike Wolfer and John Russo, art by Tomas Aira, covers by Paul Duffield, Raulo Caceres and Matt Martin.
Hundreds of anti-war protestors have gathered at the National Mall in Washington, D.C. in the summer of 1968. Behind them, a nervous National Guard stands at the ready, to maintain order should rioting erupt. And behind them, in the darkness, slithering out of the shadows with an insatiable hunger for human flesh, an army of the living dead is about to attack! As consciences, philosophies and emotions collide, the stories of several participants dove-tail into a single tale of survival against a foe much greater than anything they had previously fought against or imagined possible. But as the specter of the undead creeps increasingly closer to the White House, a simple miscalculation will spark a firestorm of murder, transforming an already tenuous situation into the most horrific bloodbath ever seen on American soil! Paul Duffield provides the Regular edition, Raulo Caceres melts eyeballs with the Wraparound cover, and Matt Martin splatters the Gore covers/
Written and art by Mike Wolfer, covers by Wolfer, Raulo Caceres and Matt Martin.
Ho ho ho 'tis the season.. for zombies! There will be more than just chestnuts roasting on an open fire as a large family gathers to celebrate the season, a raging snowstorm has buried their remote, mountain farmhouse in virgin snow, with no way in, and no way out. But a dark, despicable family secret that lay buried in the barn will not stay dead, and the resulting orgy of bloodshed, murder and cannibalism will transform this into anything but a silent night! Warn your children: This year, it is NOT Santa Clause coming down the chimney! Mike Wolfer provides the Regular edition cover, Raulo Caceres shares the spirit with the Wraparound cover, and twisted Matt Martin's Gore cover spreads the Holiday cheer all over the floor.
