There have been a number of takes on Marvel Zombies throughout the past few decades, but this one will take a big bite out of Marvel Comics history. In Marvel Zombies: Red Band by Ethan S. Parker and Griffin Sheridan, with art by Jan Bazaldua, the brain-chompers are going back in time.
Specifically, the polybagged adults-only series will start with the origin of the Fantastic Four, and go all the way through Secret Wars.
“Writing Marvel Zombies: Red Band is nothing short of a dream come true for Griffin and I,” Parker said via press release. “As lifelong fans of the Marvel Universe and its storied past, as well as writers who have made their love for the genre of bloodsoaked horror a matter of public record, this project could not be more in our sweet spot. With Jan Bazaldua and the rest of the unbelievable talent bringing this crazy book to life, we are rewriting Marvel history in new and terrifying ways, and we sincerely hope you’ll join us.”
Added Sheridan, “Ethan and I are like mad scientists combining so many different things we love on Marvel Zombies: Red Band. The result is this viscera-drenched, blood-soaked, gut-covered epic spanning across all the biggest events in Marvel history. It really should be clear, we have so much appreciation for the Marvel Universe… which is why it is such a shame that we have to rip it to shreds in the kind of disgusting fashion that one can only find on the other side of a freshly torn open polybag. See you there, True Believer.”
You can check out the synopsis below, as well as covers by Greg Land, Ryann Brown, Clayton Crain and Scott Koblish. Marvel Zombies: Red Band #1 hits stores on September 17, 2025.
