Emperor of zombie fiction George Romero brings his next undead epic to Marvel Comics. The writer/director teams up with Alex Maleev for Empire of the Dead #1.

 

At New York Comic Con the legendary creator talks with Marvel.com about working in the comic medium:

It encourages me to explore new ideas and characters that I might not have tried otherwise.
