| Publisher Description: Long before there was The Walking Dead there was Deadworld. Here is one of comics' longest running independents as Deadworld has had over 100 issues and graphic novels published and over one million copies sold over the years. Winner of the Ghastly Award for Best Horror mini-series of 2014, Deadworld: Restoration reaches deeper into the series described by Talking Comics as "frightening, haunting, gloomy, grave, and delectably mystifying." With the lepers slaughtered, the human breeding pits abandoned, and the King Zombie appearing disposed, the survivors of New Washington can continue their plan to bring the zombies under control. But Donna, the half-human/half-zombie hybrid is searching for her daughter and she'll destroy anything and anyone in her path to find her. When the Graken, four-armed killing machines are unleashed, the zombies have a new ally, one for more vicious than the brain dead zombies. Winner of the Ghastly Award for Best Horror Mini-Series of the Year 2014. Collects the entire Restoration comic series issues 1-5. |
