Halloween Hospital Horrors TALES OF THE ZOMBIE "Eye for an Eye, Tooth for a Tooth"

If you can't figure out what this story is going to feature just by reading the title above...
...you're definitely reading the wrong blog!

Written by Gerry Conway and illustrated by Virgilio Redondo and Rudy Nebres, this story from Marvel's Tales of the Zombie #10 (1975) was a non-series feature.
The book featured tales of Simon Garth: the Zombie and Brother Voodoo (who was also appearing in his own feature in Strange Tales), along with one-shot stories like this one plus articles about voodoo and zombies in both pop culture and real life!
Sadly, this was the final issue...but it would (appropriately) rise from the dead from time to time...as shown below!

CoronaVirus Comics "Preparedness 101: Zombie Pandemic" Conclusion

...following the CDC's guidelines for assembling an emergency preparedness kit and listening on the radio for instructions about where the nearest designated safe zone is...
It was all a dream???
Here I was, congratulating the CDC on a job well-done and they have to pull the ultimate cliche out of their butts?
And how can someone dream about simultaneous events in other locations (like CDC headquarters) involving people he/she has never met?
I'll let it go since it does serve the purpose of informing the public in an entertaining manner!
But if this were an episode of Walking Dead...
At this point, I'd link you to the CDC's page providing related materials...except it no longer exists...on the CDC website!
However...the legendary Wayback Machine at the Internet Archive did preserve the now-deleted section of the site!
So...
...to read up on how to prepare for any pandemic (and download some kool stuff!)

CoronaVirus Comics "Preparedness 101: Zombie Pandemic" Part 2

...it's a pandemic that causes the infected to become zombies!
Do we really have to explain that?
It's not like zombies haven't become pop culture mainstays or anything like that!
But fear not!
Snark aside, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are on the case...
Mind you, the CDC does not advise you to drive recklessly, but, under the circumstances, it'll be forgiven!
Will our unnamed couple survive the zombie apocalypse due to being prepared by following CDC guidelines?
To Be Concluded
Sunday!

CoronaVirus Comics "Preparedness 101: Zombie Pandemic" Part 1

While we're not facing a zombie pandemic...
...this comic, created by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention presents good ideas for preparing for any pandemic, including the one we recently endured...and might experience again!
It's a clever use of the obsession with zombies currently permeating pop culture (and I say this as someone who saw the original Night of the Living Dead in a theatre on 42nd Street in NYC) to offer parallels between fictional and potentially-real situations, and showing how to prepare for them in an entertaining way!
(I say this as someone who saw the original Night of the Living Dead in a theatre on 42nd Street in NYC and wondered what took the rest of the world to catch up!)
To Be Continued
Tomorrow!

CoronaVirus Comics ALICE MATHESON "Day Z: Chapter 3: Suspicion

We have Already Seen...

...the dead are returning to...life (sorta).
While they are reanimating, they're not sentient, operating on pure instinct!
The staff of St Mary's, London's best hospital, including RN Alice Matheson, an "Angel of Death" who secretly euthanizes terminally-ill patients and was inadvertently the first in the hospital to witness the phenomenon when one of her "clients" refused to rest in peace, will gather to assess the situation and utilize six infected, extremely-ambulatory test subjects to find a solution...
The supervisor suspects, but will he act on his suspicions or let the matter wait until this matter of the ambulatory undead is all, as the British say, "sorted out"?
