Besides ending us with a cliffhanger the interaction with the lesser known Marvel characters is rather interesting.
Howard the Duck leads a team of D-list characters into the zombie dimension on an impossible mission. Why did I enjoy this so much? I think partly because D-list characters are expendable and it was great fun watching the Ducky Dozen get picked off one by one. This is over-the-top, but instead of being cartoonish (well yeah there is a goddamned cartoon duck walking around) it is instead full of action and gore. I thought it was in the vein of the other Marvel Zombies books and I ate this up.
A fun read. I found it worked because of it's goofiness and mostly because of Howard the Duck. If that last sentence makes you not want to read this than I highly suggest you pass on this, it's just not for you.
The Marvel Zombies franchise has become a hit-or-miss event. While some offer excellent glimpses into the horror of intelligent super-zombies, others fall into the overtly humorous exploitation of the walking undead. Sadly, Frank Marraffino's foray into the zombie universe is played for gory laughs. Our premise is the recruitment of Dum Dum Dugan into ARMOR, for a mission to stop a world overrun by Nazi zombies. Howard the Duck assembles a group of cannon fodder as backup, and the group sets out...
I enjoyed the first Marvel Zombies series when it originally came out, and I've followed it as it morphed from a one-shot story in the pages of the Ultimate Fantastic Four to a series of short titles. Most of them are entertaining and irreverent, coming across as more of a lark than an attempt to introduce a new dimension to the Marvel universe. In that respect, this new collection fits it perfectly, with the standard Marvel-characters-as-zombies concept embellished with the inclusion of alterna...
A book that did not meet its huge potential. The amusing roster and, well, zombies, mean this should have been a rollicking ride. Instead it's dull, with poor art and uninspired writing. As a result, against all odds, the resulting miniseries is more boring than its list of ingredients should ever be. Disappointing.
Quick-paced like the last one, and just as packed with puns, this one was more military oriented, and had Howard the Duck, but even that couldn't quite bring it up to something that I really enjoyed. I guess it was mildly amusing, though.
only 3 good guys survived and they killed all the nazi zombies with a nuke
The latest incarnation of the long-running Marvel Zombies series isn't bad. It uses a lot of obscure characters in this semi-Golden Age tale on the Nazis using the zombie plague as a weapon. The stars are Howard the Duck and former Howling Commando Dum-Dum Dugan, setting the stage for an interesting group to attack der Fatherland and stop Hitler and the Asgardians from invading the regular Marvel Universe. Good characterizations, but try not to get attached to anyone - as usual, characters drop
A decent idea for the progress of the Marvel Zombie story-line, that deserved a better execution than it got. Five limited series issues to tell a dirty-dozen-style cross-universe WWII based epic of gods, monsters, and heroes, with at least a twist per issue. I feel there was just a bit too much packed in for the writers and artists to do justice.The Idea: The Marvel Zombie plague has continued to spread, finding vectors capable of piercing the dimensional veils... or so it seems. And since the
Buena historia.
It's ok as we get a story about a bunch of D-List characters fighting in a world covered with Nazi Zombies and it ok. Their is still some humor but it is just ok.
Some really cool side characters here. The story moved pretty swiftly.
It's always fun to see how the artists have the characters take each other out. It was funny to see Howard the Duck playing a serious role in this story. Overall it was a good story with a few weak points. Really I'm talking about a zombie tale here so I'm not going to be too critical. It was a good read and the story moved forward in a way that made me following along considering how to take out the Marvel Universe. Mr. Joe
Bit of an odd duck, this one (do excuse the expression, Howard) what with the writer changing after two issues. A little online research has shed some light on this: apparently, original writer Frank Marraffino became very sick partway through writing this book and could not continue. Not wanting the book to come to a screeching halt, Marvel assigned Peter David to pen the last three issues.This mid-way writer change gives the book a slightly bizarre tonal shift and, while I might be wrong, I di...
I really hate Howard the Duck so that impacts my opinion. I enjoyed Loki's appearance in this one, but really? I think I am marvel zombiversed out. no more. It just gets progressively worse. At least it was well drawn and fast paced.
Not even Peter David could save this one for me. Not ever again.
Non provo molta simpatia per i Marvel Zombies (già in Ultimate Fantastic Four non mi erano piaciuti granché), ho solo apprezzato il crossover con Army of Darkness per la presenza di Ash Williams, ma non nego che quando lessi di questo Destroy!, qualche anno fa, mi eccitai parecchio, se non altro per alcuni elementi che mi hanno fatto brillare gli occhi: Howard il Papero, Dum Dum Dugan e Nazisti zombi. Posso dire che l'attesa è valsa, perché Marraffino e David tirano su una bella trama, simpatica...
4th book read in 2019.Number 423 out of 752 on my all time book list.Zombies are always fun, but the D list character you never heard of are the standouts.
Howard the Duck, Dum Dum and a couple of other heroes goes on a mission to stop the Nazi-Zombies and Asgardian Zombies to come to their universe
