The world’s most iconic undead heroes return in Marvel Zombies: Black, White & Blood #1, an anthology of undead action from all-star creators Garth Ennis, Alex Segura, Ashley Allen, Rachael Stott, Javier Fernandez, Justin Mason and Clayton Cowles. Its three short stories focus on Daredevil, Moon Knight, and more in moments of time across different zombie-infested universes, but one in particular feels especially cathartic. It’s been nearly 18 years since the first Marvel Zombies comic released, but Black, White & Blood #1 is the first time Spider-Man has ever taken a heroic last stand against the hordes of ravenous undead.The fates of do-gooders across the Marvel Zombies franchise are anything but glorious. Most are gruesomely killed or reanimated to enact even worse brutalities upon others. Spider-Man’s fates in particular have run a miserable gamut, ranging from first casualty to final survivor, first victim, and eventual progenitor of the zombie plague. But somehow, Black, White & Blood #1 is the first chance he’s had to go down fighting. Alex Segura’s “Hope” succinctly explores a possible final moment for the character when faced with dramatically ironic absolution. The short story has the farcical stylings of its cynical franchise, but boasts enough respect to serve as Peter Parker’s first fitting end in the Marvel Zombies Universe.It would be an understatement to say that Marvel Zombies has disrespected Spider-Man in the past. In fact, his notorious portrayal across the series’ history may reach farther than the franchise itself. In the original incarnation of Marvel Zombies (by Robert Kirkman and Sean Phillips) Peter is consistently portrayed as the most bereaved of the heroes. Having eaten Aunt May and Mary Jane during the outbreak of the virus, Spider-Man spends every moment not consumed by his violent hunger regretting his actions. Parker even admits that wearing the Spider-Man mask lets him distance himself from his guilt. These emotions are treated as an outlier, with Iron Man at one point using them to comically prove that the tortured webhead had already eaten.Marvel Ruins Introduced Spider-Man’s Most Horrific VariantRELATED: The MCU’s Latest Supervillain Helped Spider-Man Fight A Zombie Invasion
