A zombie society interrupted by a returning heartbeat

Ten years after humanity’s fall, the undead have built a society with its own language and customs, organized around hunting the few humans still alive. The story centers on Poke, a member of an undead horde whose heart unexpectedly begins beating again. That change unsettles the world he knows: humans once seen as prey begin to register as possible friends. The setup brings a personal shift in perception into a setting governed by survival and the division between living and undead. This volume collects issues #1–6 of the series.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in zombie fiction that imagines an undead society and culture.
  • Fans of comics exploring the boundary between survival, humanity, and social belonging.
  • Readers seeking a collected superhero-comics imprint title with a post-apocalyptic setting.

Book overview

Writer Deniz Camp and artist Stipan Morian, the powerhouse creative team behind 20th Century Men, arrive at DC's revived Vertigo line to take readers on a zombie adventure that's filled with heart (lots of them).

The zombies won--and 10 years after the fall of humanity, they're the dominant form of life (or not-life) on Earth. They've developed their own cultural practices, their own language, their own society, all organized around hunting and devouring the few living humans unlucky enough to still be fighting for survival.

Mouse-Pokes-Golf-Ball-Through-Hole-In-Head ("Poke" for short) is a valued and beloved member of the Brain-Splashes-and-Sizzles-On-Hot-Rocks Horde of the Undead. With his brother-in-arm Mush, he's happy to shamble along through the only world he can remember...until the day his heart mysteriously starts beating again. And in a blink, the first humans he sees have stopped looking like food and have started looking like...friends...?

Absolute Martian Manhunter writer Deniz Camp and artist Stipan Morian (the iconic team behind 20th Century Men) reunite to bring you a zombie-filled world ruled by ruthless kill-or-be-killed logic, pitted against the demands of a single beating, bleeding, emotional heart!
