Rotten – Issue 1

(W) Mark Rahner, Robert Horton (A) Dan Doughtery A new twist on Zombies with action, horror, and the uncomfortably recognizable in the old West! A stop-lossed Army vet. A president in office without the popular vote. A terror crisis gripping the nation! Meet William Wade, newly minted – and seriously resentful – secret agent for President Rutherford B. Hayes. His mission with cerebral partner J.J. Flynn: travel the West and investigate outbreaks of the living dead – each one more horrifyingly advanced than the last. For Wade, 1877 is turning out to be one rotten year. Captain America’s Ed Brubaker calls Rotten ‘One of the strongest and strangest concepts I’ve ever heard, executed with horrific precision,’ and Kingdom Come’s Mark Waid says ‘It’s Deadwood by way of Stephen King. It’s Undeadwood. It’s witty, it’s disturbing, and it’s a must-read.’
