What If? Marvel Zombies - 10 Things You Need To Know
3. The Zombies Did A Crossover With The Evil Dead
Not only is Evil Dead a classic in horror, the film's protagonist, Ash Williams, became one of the most beloved heroes in the genre.
For decades, we've seen the chainsaw-wielding boomstick-blasting retail clerk save the world from Deadites in movies, tv shows, video games, and comic books. Since Ash has a knack for fighting the paranormal, it wasn't too much of a surprise when he found himself duking it out against the Marvel Zombies.
In Marvel Zombies vs the Army of Darkness, Ash finds himself transported to the Marvel universe just before the zombie virus reached Earth. Believing the pathogen is connected to the Deadites, Ash headed to Avengers Mansion to warn the superheroes of the upcoming calamity. Unfortunately, the heroes assumed Ash was a nutcase, and dismissed his warnings.
Once the virus swept across the world, Ash tried to track down the creator of the Deadites, the Necronomicon book, hoping it could reverse the zombie apocalypse. If you ever wanted to see Bruce Campbell's most iconic character bantering with the Avengers or calling Doctor Doom 'Tin Man Mr Roboto', Marvel Zombies vs the Army of Darkness is an absolute must-read.
