Sean Phillips and Fernando Blanco Join the Fray of Zombies and Chainsaws

Dynamite and Marvel have announced that a new team of artistic talents will be used for the final issues of the crossover comics series Marvel Zombies vs. Army of Darkness. To complete Ash's battle against the undead Marvel heroes, series artist Fabiano Neves is joined by none other than Marvel Zombies veteran artist Sean Phillips and Army of Darkness artist Fernando Blanco to complete the smash hit limited series. The team-up of artists will be featured in Marvel Zombies vs. Army of Darkness #4, which is scheduled for a June release and the series finale in July with issue #5.

Marvel Zombies vs. The Army of Darkness is a Five-Issue Limited Series that will serve as a direct prequel to last year's smash Marvel Zombies series which featured "dynamite" covers by Arthur Suydam, crisp scripts by Robert Kirkman and fantastic art by Sean Philips and colorist June Chung. Marvel Zombies followed the events in Mark Millar's and Greg Land's Ultimate Fantastic Four #24. With the success retailers have had with Marvel Zombies (both the series, the Hard Cover collection going to multiple printings and the Ultimate FF appearances), and the sell out of Marvel Zombies vs. Army of Darkness #1, #2 and #3, as well as Army of Darkness #13.
