This January, experience the next epic from the Godfather of the Zombie Apocalypse himself – George A. Romero! Marvel has announced Empire of the Dead, an all-new comic series written by George A. Romero with stunning art by Alex Maleev and gorgeous NYC-themed variant covers by Arthur Suydam!

Welcome to New York City years after the plague has hit.  But just because the Big Apple has been quarantined doesn’t mean that everyone inside is safe!  Flesh-eating zombies roam within the confines of Manhattan…but they’re not the only predator that’s poised and ready to strike!  Who or what is this new menace? All will be revealed when George A. Romero himself comes to New York Comic Con for Saturday’s fan-favorite Cup O’ Joe panel (4pm in Room 1E)!

Before the panel, George A. Romero will be signing in-person at the Marvel Booth, #1354, from 1:30 p.m. – 3:30 p.m.! Don’t miss your chance to get an exclusive signed Empire of the Dead mini-poster (while supplies last)!
