Dynamite Entertainment today announced the crossover event of ‘07 – a five issue limited series titled Marvel Zombies vs. The Army of Darkness.
Marvel Zombies vs. The Army of Darkness will act as a direct prequel to last year’s "Marvel Zombies" series which featured covers by Arthur Suydam, crisp scripts by Robert Kirkman and fantastic art by Sean Philips and colorist June Chung. Oddly enough Marvel Zombies followed the events in Mark Millar’s and Greg Land’s Ultimate Fantastic Four #24. To throw in more crossover madness, the final pages of DYNAMITE’S Army of Darkness #13 by writer James Kuhoric, teases at the upcoming event. So the groundwork has been laid out through the Ultimate Universe, the Marvel Universe, and now the Army of Darkness Universe.
Marvel Zombies vs. The Army of Darkness is scheduled for a March release, and will take the place of the regular AOD series, which will be on hiatus while the crossover mini-series takes place.
