Now, nearly a year later, I can definitively say that Jesus Hates Zombies takes a long slow look at its potential and kicks its ass! With a darker, more brooding visual sense (thanks to art by Steve Cobb) and more salty dialog from Stephen Lindsay, this is light years beyond what I read before. This book grabbed me at “hello” and did not let go for forty more pages. 

Comic Review Exclusive: Jesus Hates Zombies: Yea, Though I Walk, Vol. 1.

Aus dem Inhalt:

“It is my opinion,” Wertham told the senators and the cameras, “without any reasonable doubt and without any reservation, that comic books are an important contributing factor in many cases of juvenile delinquency.” The child most likely to be influenced by comic books, he said, is the normal child; morbid children are less affected, “because they are wrapped up in their own fantasies.” Comic books taught children racism and sadism—“Hitler was a beginner compared to the comic book industry,” he said. In his book, he said that “Batman” comics were homoerotic and that “Wonder Woman” was about sadomasochism. He was even critical of “Superman” comics: “They arouse in children fantasies of sadistic joy in seeing other people punished over and over again while you yourself remain immune,” he testified. “We have called it the Superman complex.”

The Horror: Books: The New Yorker

Der Autor Robert Kirkman erzählt hierbei mit Hilfe der Zeichnungen von Tony Moore die Geschichte einer Gruppe von Leuten, die in einer Welt voller Zombies versucht zu überleben. Hierbei handelt es sich vielleicht um die eindringlichste Schilderung der Zombie-Apokalypse überhaupt. Kirman liebt seine Charaktere und hat trotzdem keine Skrupel, sie über die Klinge springen zu lassen.

Große Empfehlung!
