There is no shortage of zombie comics in the world. Even over at Image there is no stopping their flagship title The Walking Dead. In 2008-2009 they released a mini-series written by Clark Castillo and Mel Smith with arr by Alex Nino called Dead Ahead.
The comic tells the story of a boat of survivors stranded out at sea, who find a luxury cruise liner drifting out in the water. Well, they were pleased to announce at the inaugural Image Expo that the sequel to their book is in the works.
Weve got the first nine pages in the first draft, said Smith talking to Bleeding Cool. So [Nino] is working on it right now. Id say by Comic-Con well have stuff to show and itll come out through Image again.
The only thing they would give about the new series was, Were going to tell the story from the perspective of the people inside the boat.” This sounds exciting. It’s always cool to see different settings for outbreaks in zombie stories.
The new trade paperback for the first volume of Dead Ahead is available now!
