10 Batman Fates Worse Than Death

3. Having To Live Through The Zombie Apocalypse - DCeased

DCeased Batman
DC Comics

Tom Taylor is one of the best comics writers going currently, and one thing he has a particular knack for is telling stories set in grim alternate realities - first with the comics tie-in to Injustice: Gods Among Us, and then more recently with DCeased, which sees the DC universe gripped by a zombie apocalypse.

Although Taylor is great at finding the hope and resilience of superheroes when confronted by these bleak surroundings, there are few things that would make an actual zombie apocalypse liveable, let alone one where some of the zombies are also the superheroes who used to protect you.

Content Producer/Presenter

WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well. In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
