Ex Heroes
This week I have been mostly reading: Ex Heroes by Peter Clines.
This was a present from my friend Kate nad it loving brings together two of my great geek-boy loves - Super Heroes and Zombies. This isnt exactly a new concept, Marvel Zombies did this years ago and was brilliant. This is a novel rather than a comic and the emphasis is very different. The 'heroes' exist in a world where that is a new phenomenon and the ret of reality is quite normal. Where Marvel Zombies showcased beloved fan favourites (and lesser characters) succumbing to the zombie virus, Ex Heroes looks at a small group of 'heroes' helping to defend one of the last groups of surviving humans. It's a different spin on the zombie apocalypse and it's good fun so very welcome in all respects.
