A Fond Look At Old School Zombie Comics
Zombie comics absolutely do not begin and end with The Walking Dead, and undead tales from the Golden and Silver age featured some truly amazing cover art and storylines that had to be more than just a bloody gorefest.
Zombies: The Chilling Archives of Horror Comics is a vintage collection edited by Craig Yoe and Steve Banes that's sure to please both the avid horror historians and those recently converted by the modern zombie craze.

The conquerors rode in a triumphal chariot, the dazed prisoners walking in chains before him. Sometimes his children robed in white stood with him in the chariot or rode the trace horses. A slave stood behind the conqueror holding a golden crown and whispering in his ear a warning: that all glory is fleeting.”
