The Marvel Zombies are back once again, but this time there's a certain guy with a chainsaw for his forearm that's been thrown into the mix. Oh, and a duck too.

I love the Army of Darkness vs Marvel Zombies - after all, if you're going to utterly milk a ridiculous concept to death, you might as well get a couple of awesome crossover concepts in there too. Plus anything with Nextwave turning up (and recognising their arrival with the signature text box was a brilliant "No Way!" moment when reading).

This longbox seemed a bit more of a "this happened. then this happened" synopsis than the true mockeries we usually enjoy in the longbox. Which is a pity, because if there's anything with enough to mock it's the Marvel Zombies.

I only read 4 of 5 of this series. I was really expecting more. There was a couple funny spots but overall it was pretty lame.

Is it just me, or did it seem more like Ash was just along for the ride rather than actually doing much? Still sounds like an awesome comic though. I'm more curious about the werewolf world though, ha.

A Google search still has no definite answer, only more questions.

Interesting, my initial thought is that it would depend on the kind of Zombie. If you are talking Romero zombies, it seems initially unlikely as the circulatory system has ceased (open wounds seep but do not bleed). It's logical then to assume that the gastrointestinal system has shut down as well.

However, both Romero and NOTLD zombies do have limited muscular control, so I suppose - as it is possible for zombies to actually swallow food (using muscles) - and chemical digestion technically continues for a time after death, it is also quite possible that the rest of the digestive and elimination process would still function for a time.

Regardless, it's also important to note that the human body does generally release its bowels following death, this I can certainly attest to from my days as an embalmer. So, a new zombie may 'poop' but not really in the traditional sense. Rather the excrement in the bowels at the time of death would seep out due to gravity and muscle relaxation.

Given that last point, I suppose its safe to say that 'fresh' zombies do 'poop' though said' pooping' is not conventional and the process would not be a regular biological function.

The 'real' zombies of Haiti of course 'poop'.

Marvel Zombies do not seem like real zombies in that they are sentient and alien in origin. Their strange lip -devoid grimace looks more like a mutation than a simple reanimation.

I mean, do they actually die before zombification?

I'd wager that they do indeed poop like any living organism. They appear to digest whatever they eat. They often appear with distended bellies only to appear later slim and hungry again. That denotes some sort of metabolism or digestion.

That would be most awesome.

I think it's Daredevil's Owl though...

Yeah, a couple people emailed me and said they thought it was the Owl. They're probably right. I've just never seen him looking quite so "faggy" and for the Owl, that says a lot.

J. Tithonus, you were an embalmer?! And here I was thinking I had done every weird and unpleasant job known to man... that must have been interesting. I enjoyed your scholarly treatise on zombie digestion very much.

I figure that zombies who eat brains, the flesh of the living and sometimes each other have got to poop. Everything that eats poops. If they didn't I guess we'd come back in a year after the zombacolypse to find bloated, balloon like zombies lying around incapable of movement.

I think I'll order a pizza.

Ya, right out of high school I studied Funeral Services Education and was in the body biz for a couple of years as an embalmer and Deiner.

Interesting? Yes. Depressing? You bet! Moved on to better things. I actually became a pastry chef after that for awhile.

I've got to find this. This shit is way too ridiculous NOT to own.

As for zombies pooping? I'm just gonna go by the whole Zombie Surivial Guide and assume they shit throught their stomachs when they bloat and explode.

Not a big fan of The Survival Guide. I am looking forward to the release of Zombie CSU early next year.
