Babymetal Steps Back Into The World of Marvel Zombies on Exclusive Variant Celebrating Marvel Zombies: War Zone #1

hustl. announced today that iconic Japanese metal band Babymetal will join Marvel Zombies on a limited-edition variant cover to celebrate the release of Marvel Zombies: War Zone #1. 

This collaboration was inspired by Babymetal’s connection to Marvel Animation’s Marvel Zombies on Disney+, after their song “from me to u” was featured in the trailer for the show. The song was originally released on their record-breaking fourth-studio album Metal Forth, which made its debut last year at #9 on the Billboard 200, marking the band’s first-ever U.S. Top 10 album and the first time in history that an all-Japanese fronted group has made this list.

The 3,500 copy limited run features art from Phil Noto and is available now for pre-order through the Capitol Records online store, and for the hobby market though hustl. It will be available for pre-order in Japan on September 7th. The original comic with standard cover is available in comic shops starting September 2nd.

Marvel Zombies: War Zone #1

(W) Tom Waltz (A) Jaime Infante

ESCAPE THE HUNGER! A ZOMBIE outbreak has hit Manhattan and the whole city is rapidly overrun! As EARTH’S MIGHTIEST HEROES succumb to the virus, a barrier is hastily erected to protect the world — but inside the barrier, a war zone has broken out as survivors fight for their lives against the ever-growing horde. However, one man isn’t looking for survival — he’s after answers as he carves a bloody swathe of his own through the ravaged city. And if any zombies get in his way? Well, the PUNISHER has plenty of lead that they can eat!

Punisher takes on a Zombie Apocalypse in Marvel Zombies: War Zone!

This September, Marvel Zombies returns to life in Marvel Zombies: War Zone, and this time, it won’t be Earth’s Mightiest Heroes who save the day—it’ll be Earth’s toughest! The five-issue limited series will be written by Tom Waltz, known for his gruesome work on Wolverine: Blood Hunt and Knull, and drawn by Jaime Infante, in his fearsome Marvel Comics debut.

The latest Marvel Zombies nightmare begins after the Avengers and the Fantastic Four fail to stop a zombie plague from devastating New York City. Now sealed off as a deadly quarantine zone, humanity’s last hope rests with PUNISHER and a team of street-level heroes including LUKE CAGE, ELEKTRA, IRON FIST and MOON KNIGHT. Together, this ragtag group of deadly heroes will have to uncover the origin of the outbreak and break down the barrier before the infection consumes everything.
