FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: MILWAUKIE, OR—Dark Horse Comics, Activision Publishing, Inc.,
and award-winning game development studio, Treyarch have teamed up to deliver Call
of Duty: Zombies, a comic book series of undead proportions, written by comics
superstar Justin Jordan (Green Lantern: New Guardians), and illustrated by Jonathan
Wayshak (Devolution), with story by Zombies Director, Jason Blundell and the
studio’s Lead Writer, Craig Houston. With incredible covers by superstar artist
Simon Bisley, the waves of undead come straight out of Call of Duty: Black Ops III
Zombies experience and onto the pages of Dark Horse Comics!
Since Treyarch first introduced Zombies to the Call of Duty franchise as an Easter
Egg in Call of Duty: World at War, it has grown into its own pop-culture phenomenon,
becoming an indispensable part of what game fans expect from a Call of Duty game.
Now, Treyarch’s Blundell and Houston help take fans even deeper down the rabbit
hole…
On his quest to secure an ancient artifact known as The Kronorium, Doctor Edward
Richtofen enlists the help of The Tranzit Crew, a rag tag group of survivors last
seen in the Black Ops II Zombies installment Buried. On a deeply unstable and
fractured future Earth, Stuhlinger, Misty, Russman, and Marlton battle for survival
against the undead horde, as they slowly uncover the truth behind Richtofen’s
mysterious reappearance. The Call of Duty: Zombies miniseries follows these
characters’ perilous journey of discovery, filling in crucial pieces of the larger
Zombies story.
