He Can Shamble Over Tall Buildings in a Single Bound.

If you haven't seen this then you might be unaware that DC Comics will be ripping off honoring Marvel's "Marvel Zombie" universe this summer with their "Blackest Night" line. Earth 2 Superman will be zombified.

It's going to be tough to match the dark humor and creativity that the Marvel series had reached with their own zombie heroes.

Ah, but really, DC is actually recycling a Green Lantern story from the early 1980s in which the Green Lantern Corp fought an army of zombies. SO, DC actually did it first! ;-)

Who the hell would buy that bust, I mean really?

Oh. Neat. Another living dead title.

Yawwwnnnn.

Wake me up when they let Superman lapse into the public domain and have some new ideas.

@Rob!: I know! I've seen a bust of Jack Goodman from American Werewolf in London for sale, too. Who would want those on their shelf?

We've been living in Bizarro world since 2001, so in honor of that, I want to see Bizarro world zombies.

Arkonbey said...

Snab: wouldn't Bizarro world zombies be sentient, living people with complete free will and moderate appetites for non-cannibalistic food sources?

Oh, wait. I'd like to see those, too;)

Ark,

Yes, they are the unundead. We are inundated with unundead. Enunciate the annunciation of unundead, anonymously! :D

If I was rich I would buy that bust. It would be for my Ray Bradbury office filled with toys, collectibles and things like a lifesize Han Solo in carbonite with Harrison Ford actually frozen inside of it.

snab: I am glad I finished my hot chocolate and Southern Comfort before I read that otherwise it would be all over my monitor!

Earth 2 Superman used to be the original superman
