RISERS
Written by MARTIN FISHER
Artwork by KURT BELCHER
FOR FANS OF: Ghost, Zombies, 28 Days Later
FIND IT ON THE SHELF WITH: The Walking Dead, Living with Zombies, Remains
In Martin Fisher's RISERS, when people die with a secret they often come back as living corpses; in order to finally pass on they must reveal their secret. In Annette Thomas' case, she can't figure out what her secret is and why she has come back. One thing is clear though: she better find out soon, otherwise she will slowly start turning into one of the permanently undead: an animalistic, flesh eating, zombie!
"I love this book's premise. It brings a whole new twist to the zombie genre and it's a very welcome one at that. (Grade: A-)"
Deamentia, Weekly Comic Book Review
"If you're burnt out by the zombie explosion in comics these days, RISERS may be the remedy."
