Marvel Zombies
An alien virus transforms Earth's mightiest heroes into flesh-eating monsters in this shocking take on the Marvel Universe. Witness a world where familiar champions become terrifying threats, driven by an insatiable hunger. This story explores a dark alternate reality where heroism is twisted into something truly horrific.
While this series functions as a standalone narrative, it originates from a specific story arc in Ultimate Fantastic Four issues 21 through 23. Reading that crossover arc first provides the necessary context for how the zombie universe was initially discovered and accessed.
The comic series is distinct from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, though it served as the primary inspiration for the What If... Zombies?! episode and the subsequent animated series on Disney+. The comic version features a different tone and narrative structure compared to the animated adaptations.
