Jamie Delano is back with this science fiction masterpiece!

But Gray Neighbor just isn’t sure that is all life has to offer, and maybe there is more beyond the daily sluice. But when a psychestryke horrorist attack brings carnage to his life, he is thrust deeper into the edges of this utopian society and into conflict with the agents of T.R.U.S.T. who keep order. Crafting whole new chunks of language, and stunning concepts of a bizarre new world, Delano delivers a masterful new series that has to been seen to be believed! Artist Jeremy Rock provides stunningly detailed sequential pages that fully compliment this truly revolutionary book.

Night of the Living Dead: Death Valley #1 – 5

NOTLD DV1

Fans have demanded more, so Mike Wolfer returns to the Night of the Living Dead, but this time takes it to California! It’s 1969, and one year and 1,700 miles from the devastating plague that ravaged the Eastern Seaboard of the United States. In the arid expanse of the California desert, a group of young, weekend warriors have left behind the tensions of the times and hope to escape the mundane with three days of hot sun, wild bikinis and boss dune buggies. But the desert is a harsh environment, where the unsuspecting can find danger behind every pristine, white, sand dune. This is Death Valley, where the flesh-hungry living dead wait, baking in the sun, thirsty for the blood of the living. But something else is hiding among the rocks, a secret even more gut-wrenching than the reanimated corpses of the dead which roam the sands! Written by Mike Wolfer this blood-drenched five-issue series features the return of artist Dheeraj (Escape of the Living Dead) Verma.

Night of the Living Dead:  2008 & 2011 Annuals

NOTLD Annual

Night of the Living Dead co-creator John Russo brings you a new tale of terror set during the night that changed the world forever. The Eastern United States is in chaos as hordes of the undead wage war against the living, and increasingly frantic television transmissions are the only source of information available to a terrified populace. But there is no escape from the living dead and no safe place to hide, not even the WIIC-TV studio where original NOTLD news anchorman Chuck Blaine has some difficult decisions to make: Should his heroic news crew continue their emergency public broadcasts, or run from the army of ghouls amassing outside the station? More importantly, should he continue to disseminate questionable government recommendations that could be luring viewers into inescapable death traps? Welcome back to the original characters of NOTLD including Johnny, Barbra and little Karen Cooper!
