- Venturing too far into standard fare
While we do have the Marvel Zombies, it feels as if this book is moving them more towards standard comic book fare. By the end, the zombies are no longer the crazy, conflicted, and generally funny group of super heroes gone wrong. They essentially become immortal, cyborg versions of themselves.

- 40 Years Later
At the end of Marvel Zombies 2 in a short afterward paragraph, Writer Robert Kirkman refers to his Marvel Zombies creation as "a kooky idea". Indeed, if you've not read any of the series, and you've stumbled across this product, you're probably saying more colorful things than `kooky' as you try to even consider this as a serious purchase. But I assure you that if you're a fan of the Marvel Universe (and you like a good zombie story), you'll find the Marvel Zombies series a terrific, enjoyably quick read.

Marvel Zombies was one of the more pleasant surprises that I've come across in long long while. Kirkman, who also happens to be the creator of the absolutely fabulous Walking Dead series (The Walking Dead Book 1, The Walking Dead, Book 2, The Walking Dead Book 3, The Walking Dead, Vol. 7: The Calm Before & The Walking Dead Volume 8: Made To Suffer), knows how to do a zombie story. And he does the ... Read More

- This was fun...! A 3.5, maybe?
This was a fun book - where the first series was a giddy splatterfest, this second story arc takes the premise more seriously and has the super-zombies returning to Earth in search of a trans-dimensional portal so that they can find another universe to feast on. There they encounter the remnants of Earth's population, including several super-survivors, and thus the race is on. Kirkman does some interesting stuff combining super-prosthetic technology with the whole can't-kill-'em premise, and for fans of the superhero and zombie genres this remains a highly entertaining book. Several characters - Wolverine, Ororo - remain little more than walking furniture in this volume, but it's hard to complain about weak characterization in a book where the main point is to see how hard it is to kill the participants. Not great literature, but funny and fun. (ReadThatAgain book reviews)

- Sometimes the heroes come back from the dead
Im a huge fan of the series. Now this isnt as good as the first series but damn close to it. We see the 6 surviving Marvel Zombies (Giant Man, Spiderman, Wolverine, Iron Man, Hulk and Luke Cage) now known as the Glactus (after eating the original) and they are now joined by zombified Pheonix aka Jean Grey, Thanos, Firelord and Shi'ar warrior Gladiator. It turns out in the last 40 years since the last series. The Marvel zombies have ate everyone in the universe.

We ate everything!

But it turns out that some humans survived on earth including Blank Panther, Forge, Magneto's accolytes and a bunch of other people. But they have cured zombies (didnt eat flesh for years) Wasp and Hawkeye (both are just heads attached to robotic bodies). Now the zombies return to earth for a teleportion device seen on Ultimate Fantastic 4 issues, and MZ dead days. But they find food and its now a human vs zombies ... Read More
