April 2014 - The Other Dead
Continues Its Infectous Growth!
Exciting news: The Other Dead #6 is now available, with the hardcover
collection coming soon!
“How has this brilliant premise
not been done yet? Just when we’re inundated with “zombie
this, zombie that,” Ortega, Digger, and Eastman come along
with a rip-roaring adventure that provides the most unique spin
on the zombie apocalypse in years.”
–Cliff Bleszinski
Creator of Gears of War
“The Other Dead has the perfect combination
of action, emotional impact, and brooding/building horror. I kept turning the
pages to run from the impending doom.”
– Kevin J. Anderson
New York Times bestselling author of the Dan Shamble,
Zombie P.I. series.
“Gleefully gory and subversive
with snark–the only problem with this book is that I didn't
come up with the idea first!”
– Hugh Sterbakov
Emmy-nominated writer of Robot Chicken, Freshmen, and City
Under the Moon
“The Other Dead finds space to be itself
in a genre where most practitioners stick to the tried and true. Original
and genuinely scary.”
– Mike Carey
Eisner Award-winning writer of Unwritten, Suicide Run, and X-Men
“The Other Dead has restored my faith in
a tired sub-genre with a tongue-in-cheek premise, compelling characters, and
a devilishly fun world. I’m anxiously awaiting the moment when Obama
picks up a shotgun.”
– TJ Fixman
Writer of Ratchet & Clank and Legends of the Dark Knight:
A Game to Die For
“The basic conceit of this story, that
nature, not our neighbors, is the real threat, harkens back to Hitchcock’s
The Birds and Spielberg’s Jaws, only taken to the next level…Just
when you thought the zombie genre had been strip mined, The Other Dead proves
you wrong.”
– Robert Napton
Writer of Battlestar Galactica, Warlord of Mars, and Dark
Wraith of Shannara
“A twisted new angle that will resonate
far and wide. I really enjoyed it.”
– American McGee
Creator of American McGee’s Alice
“The Other Dead starts with a great premise,
a zombie tale that tugs our emotion and sympathy like no other. The book itself
is beautifully executed, with grisly, splattered art and frenetic writing…can't
wait for more!”
– Mike Capps
Executive Producer of Gears of War and writer of Gears of War: Barren
“With The Other Dead, Ortega, Digger, and
Eastman finally answer the THE zombie genre question–what about the animals!?–with
equal parts wit and ferocity.”
– Steve Johnson
FX Artist on Ghostbusters, The Abyss, and Spider-Man
