Overview

Long before there was The Walking Dead there was Deadworld. Here is one of comics' longest running independents as Deadworld has had over 100 issues and graphic novels published and over one million copies sold over the years.

Now...ripped from the pages of Deadworld! A mysterious hunter of the dead who hunts zombies for sport and who challenges himself in this new world of the dead, now turns his sights on King Zombie. One will die. The man known only as the Dead Killer has adapted to the new way of things. He has turned his back to the past and embraces the future...a future where its kill or be killed.

A compilation of the chronicles of the Dead-Killer from the mini-series, "To Kill a King" and the backup stories in Deadworld volume one, issues #19-21 which introduced the character. This edition is a stand alone tale but also serves as a great companion to the regular Deadworld series in which Dead-Killer becomes an on-going character.

Reviews of Deadworld: The Dead-Killer:

"Dead Killer works because Gary Reed is not just a writer but a storyteller, and storytelling is almost a lost art in comics today" - Tim Janson, Mania com

"So, what are you waiting for? The brains to be served to you on a silver platter? Go check this innovative and downright entertaining book out. Your life might depend on it one day." - Steven G. Saunders, Silver Bullet Reviews.
