You read right…Victorian..Undead!  IT’S A COMIC BOOK…WITH ZOMBIES…IN VICTORIAN LONDON.  Now I love zombies, and I love scummy victorian London.  This is like a dream come true.

The comic starts with an intergalactic astroid thing hurtling its way through space toward earth.  It’s all green and ominous looking.  We jump down to London, where everyone going crazy over it.  Some people are all “This is a good thing” while this one old bat is like “This is EVIL!”  Her dialougue is way cheesy but it works to give across that Whitechapel slummy feel we all know and love.

We are then whisked across to a doctor’s lab where 2 people are studying a recently deceased corpse.  They come to the conclusion she is dead…little did they know…she only freaking gets up and munches on them.

From there we fly across town to meet our heroes of the story, Holmes and Watson.  I really liked the sort of character the writer went with here, choosing something akin to Tony Stark.  It really sits well in the cheese fest that is Victorian Undead.  I won’t write too much more incase you want to find out for yourself, but I will tell you, there are spies, there are gadgets, there are one liners…and most importantly there are zombies!
