And they soon discovered New Wakanda’s existence. The Zombie Galacti returned to Earth after essentially eating the alien races of the universe. This allowed her to rejoin human society. Zombie Wasp even learned that if she could resist the hunger long enough, it would go away. Several decades after the first series, humans and mutants alike were surviving under the banner of New Wakanda. Black Panther and Storm were able to safely bring their team home, but this was not the last time that the zombieverse came in contact with the Prime Universe. On one of their adventures, they inadvertently crossed over to the zombiverse and came face-to-face with the "Zombie Galacti.” That was the title given to the infected heroes who ingested Galactus’ body and powers. Shortly after CIVIL WAR, Black Panther and his wife, Storm, led a new incarnation of the Fantastic Four with the Thing and the Human Torch. This not only gave them the cosmic powers of Galactus, but also the means to leave Earth and find other planets to consume. Big G is normally “the Devourer of Worlds.” But in this world, the formerly heroic zombies devoured both the Silver Surfer and his master. Meanwhile, zombie Spider-Man, Hulk, Wolverine, Colonel America, Luke Cage, and more faced a new threat: Silver Surfer, and his master, Galactus. Thankfully, a few of Magneto’s acolytes were able to save a handful of survivors and join forces with T’Challa and Wakanda. Magneto’s luck couldn’t hold out forever, and he soon fell to the transformed heroes. Reed made it back to his world, and the zombie Fantastic Four were defeated and imprisoned in the Ultimate Universe. Ultimate Reed also found himself trapped in the zombies’ world, where Magneto desperately tried to save as many humans as he could. But it was just a trick by the zombified Fantastic Four to gain access to the Ultimate Universe. Ultimate Reed Richards made contact with his counterpart on another world, who appeared to be the Reed Richards of the Prime Universe. These issues had one of the great swerves in comic book history. The Master of Magnetism couldn’t undo his mistake, but he did stand alongside Nick Fury, the X-Men, and the remaining heroes as they made one last attempt to salvage their world. Unfortunately, it proved to be far more potent than Magneto anticipated. The key piece of information here is that Magneto made a deal with an unknown entity off-panel that introduced the zombie plague to this Earth. While this isn’t technically the first appearance of the Marvel Zombies, DEAD DAYS was a prologue that shed some light on how this reality fell to the zombie plague. They may be gone for now, but zombies have a very terrifying knack for resurfacing when you least suspect it. Via Marvel Unlimited, we’re looking back at the history of the Marvel Zombies, as well as some key issues along the way.
