There really isn’t that much to say about ‘Dead Meat’ yet; it’s free, it updates weekly, and it’s virulently Anti-Zombie.

…

What, that’s not enough?

Ok. It’s been updating for a few weeks now and ‘Dead Meat’ seems to concern a post-apocalyptic world somewhat like Fallout, only due to, what else, the Zombie Apocalypse.

If you want to be more specific, the classic ‘Night of the Living Dead’ variety, where anyone who dies comes back as a flesh-eating revenant, blah blah blah.

The story concerns a lonely, heroic and fairly erudite drifter who rescues a woman and her.. kid? Brother? from the ravages of the Undead controlled countryside, along with a group of vicious criminals apparently hunting him for reasons as yet not divulged.

That’s about it really, so far. It uses one-dimensional quasi-Undead as a prop to propel a post-apocalypse story. In another era, they might have been aliens or radioactive mutants; today, they’re Zombies. They got shot a lot, and nobody seems to consider their feelings.

Thusly, the comic earns an Anti-Zombie rating from The Zombie Rights Campaign.
