Double Take is launching three new comics set in the world of “Night of the Living Dead” this June. The first two comics, “Rise” and “Z-Men” are written by Zombie writer Jeff McComsey and the third “Home” is written by Peter Aguero a Moth Grand Slam Champion. You can catch digital previews of all three books at the Double Take Website.
Much more than just a singular launch, this marks the first releases in a major initiative surrounding the classic horror franchise, which frightened moviegoers all around the world and made zombies a household name. Having commissioned a new generation of writers to breathe new life into the classic franchise, 2T has a dozen series in the works – some following characters from the film in surprising new directions; other stories are all new. All creators are working in collaboration with 2T GM, Bill Jemas.
