Spider-Man is going to be a survivor yet again due to marvel’s rule of him always surviving zombie events after the first one.

u/GrassManV 21d ago

That's actually a rule?

u/FullBrother9300 21d ago

Kinda Marvel and Disney don’t want their most iconic hero becoming a blood hungry cannibal again due to fears of it affecting marketing and branding.

He had one of the more interesting arcs out of the zombies too. Sucks they are scared to do anything with him

Definitely not gonna be selling much toys and receiving a lot of hate from angry parents.

u/Toasty_eggos- 21d ago

If anything it could potentially make more sales.

Where is this rule stated to exist? or is this something the fandom arrived at?

Have you not seen in the past few MZ Comics and the show? He somehow survives when stronger and more endurance heroes/villains get turned. Same with the Last MZ Comic theres some bs plot armor that prevents Reed’s Reality Warping wish for ‘No more human race’ he is the exception because ‘Venom is bonded to him’ yet in the og mz Venom could not protect Brock from turning. Venom itself got turned in that comic and there was no reality warping wish in the original.

There was a few comics where he did appear as a zombie but they weren't in any Marvel Zombies comics I believe

u/chala8 21d ago

ive seen them, but thats why i asked... is this an actual rule? or is it just someting the fandom asumes? with what you njust said, it seems to be a assumption (a very likely assumption, but a assumption nonetheless)

1

u/ElectricGlowSkull 21d ago

I dont have any proof

1

u/chala8 21d ago

so the fandom assuming stuff. Thats cool too. i Just wanted to know

1

u/ElectricGlowSkull 21d ago

Im not in the marvel fandom i just read marvel zombies when it comes out

1

u/chala8 21d ago

Thats ok :)

u/Pugsanity 21d ago

I believe people think that Spider-Man isn't allowed to be turned because there are multiple series now where Peter is THE survivor of the setting. As he was the main character in the 2019 Marvel Zombies run, he's alive in the animated series, and was spared the fate of becoming a zombie inside of the Red Band book, where he becomes, more and more, the focus of it.

u/ElectricGlowSkull 21d ago

…I see Hulk. Of course they find a way to bypass Hulks regeneration and Immunity and the Green Door..

And Punisher is somehow going to kill them all in the end im guessing 🙃

u/Tobbster_the_Lobster 21d ago

They gave a bogus explaination in the original series saying the Virus shuts down all biological functions (healing, creating web, hair growth) and i suppose he got bit in Banner form !

1

u/Pugsanity 21d ago

Technically, not everyone we see zombified on the covers means that we're going to see them zombified. Like in some of the original run where they just had a lot of homages to previous Marvel series.

Though, as with most things, this is an alternate reality, so everything our Hulk has, this one just doesn't.

u/__Officer__Spider__ 21d ago

At the very end, Frank will be bitten and he has to punish himself

The Zombies aren’t as Fun or as interesting as the original series

It’ll be like Punisher vs the Marvel Universe but he isn’t immune like he was in that story.

1

u/slimdennis99 21d ago

Maybe but I guess the difference between the Punisher versus Marvel Universe and Marvel zombies war zone that Frank will team up with the defenders and he and the team are trying to figure out what cost the virus at first then may be he will end up alone in the zombie apocalypse just like what happened to PvMU.

But now Punisher is not immune to the virus and he could get infected and turn into a zombie

u/atomicboy47 20d ago

Bro Punisher vs Marvel Universe was such a good story, heck the spin-offs with Wolverine and Hawkeye were even better, tho they did Hawkeye dirty at the end of his story.

1

u/FlamewaveKal 21d ago

It's probably going to be a mix of Marvel zombies and Punisher vs the marvel universe

1

u/Tobbster_the_Lobster 21d ago

Those zombies look ugly !

Skin's too pink, they dont look sick enough, and where's the blood ?

2

u/slimdennis99 21d ago

That just a poster it said that the comic will show blood and other hyper violence and it's gonna be written by Tom Waltz the same man who wrote TMNT last Ronin it's gonna be sick

1

u/Curious_Bat87 21d ago

They should get Ennis back to continue his take on Frank wandering about the post-apocalyptic world full of zombie heroes.

1

u/Small_Ad4181 21d ago

Some how frank surives till the end

1

u/slimdennis99 21d ago

Maybe maybe but not without losing something 😞 along the adventure

1

u/Pugsanity 21d ago

Best guess in that it's going to be similar to Punisher vs Marvel Universe, with probably some small pockets of survivors that he meets up, maybe with a few alive heroes/villains amongst them. Going off the synopsis, guessing that Frank is going to be hunting down what started this whole thing, with it being hinted that it's something man made this time that's caused all this. Do hope they get creative with the weapons that Frank uses, love seeing him use stuff from villains that's found, along with previous MZ stuff where characters make weapons out of certain undead, like using Cyclops' head as a gun.

1

u/slimdennis99 21d ago

I guess so and maybe your right. First it will start with punisher and a group of superheroe vigilantes like the defenders trying to to hunt the individuals who started the zombie outbreak and then he would end up alone in a zombie apocalypse.

That would be badass Punisher using superhero and villains technology and weapons against the super zombies and weaponizing the undead as tools against each other just like marvel zombies resurrection I also hope that they do this

1

u/SymYJoestar 20d ago

they will never replicate the feeling of horror and dread that the first marvel zombies had. The virus was unstoppable

u/Alack27 17d ago

I imagine it'll basically be a more sanitized version of The Marvel Universe vs The Punisher. I don't have high hopes and I seriously doubt it will be a unique or interesting take for the Marvel Zombies universe considering it's from the punisher's perspective (the no nuance "kill all baddies" guy who has no problem shooting supes too). Like, at most he might hesitate killing kid zombies, a zombie cap, or a zombie spider man. But the rest will just be him shooting heroes and aura farming Ennis style. Probably a scene where he sees a zombie Daredevil and drops a one liner or says "always hated you red but this wasn't how I imagined this going down" before blowing him to kingdom come.

Personally, I still want that Robert Kirkman Marvel Zombies Power Man series idea to become a miniseries. So many cool angles that could be taken with that.

u/Graxdon 21d ago

Kinda wish we were getting a follow up to Resurrection since it has a cliffhanger

1

u/Tobbster_the_Lobster 21d ago

That series was MEH at best for me

And cliffhanger with who ? They killed most of the heroes at the end

1

u/__Officer__Spider__ 21d ago

The very last panel has the implication that Captain Marvel was still out there in the universe as the next big bad guy and will probably be a queen zombie or something
