After his most recent appearance in Die!namite Lives, Ashley Williams is retired. Settled down. Haunted by the Deadites and the Necronomicon no more…no, wait-none of that is true! In fact, not only is Ash still haunted by Deadites and the Necronomicon, he’s haunted by both of them in the 1970s (kids, ask your parents…parents, um, ask yourselves!)! And what does he find in the South Bronx of the late ’70s? Gangs! And what have those gangs found? The Necronomicon, of course! And that makes those gangs some bad-ass mxxxerfxxxers!
