Howard The Duck: Zombie Hunter? A Full 7 Page Look At ‘Marvel Zombies 5’ Issue Two!

By THEoDEAD on April 24, 2010

Who else almost laughed their ass off when Howard The Duck showed up in the first issue of “MARVEL ZOMBIES 5”? There’s just something about the lil’ guy in a cowboy costume toting around a gun that makes me laugh harder than any Martin Lawrence film in the past decade. (Or maybe that’s Martin Lawrence?) In any event inside you can read the first 7 pages of the new issue which drops this Wednesay from Marvel Comics. Read on for the skinny.

“Machine Man is back! Zombies of the multiverse, watch your rotting backs! To obtain a cure for the zombie virus for Morbius the Living Vampire, Aaron Stack, Agent of ARMOR, must traverse alternate realities hunting down the plague in all its myriad forms…with a most unusual (but somehow oddly appropriate) partner! First up: in the Alterniverse known as ‘The Territory,’ the Old West never died. But when the greatest gunslingers of Marveldom — Two-Gun Kid, Phantom Rider, Kid Colt, and many others — rise from their graves in Boot Hill, the stage is set for a High Noon showdown.”
