The Fellowship was fortunate enough to obtain a copy of REVIVAL #3 from Image Comics. Tim Seeley writes and Mike Norton draws.
The world is still reeling from the after-effects of Revival
Day, when the dead started to rise (which is less zombie-esque than you might
think). Em is a reviver, her sister Dana is a cop, and life is just starting to
get interesting for them both. Dana is investigating a potential reviver hate
crime, while Em is stumbling across something possibly more sinister.
This is a fascinating twist on the zombie story; the
revivers are all but identical to how they were in life. And no one seems to
know what happened, at least not the characters we see (the CDC is only just
getting involved). So all of the characters we know (so far) are normal people
trying to live normal lives. So it’s fun to see what normal people do when
abnormal things happen around them, and to them.
This is a title with strong drama potential and the promise
of some sort of supernatural hijinks (or something that looks very much like
it). It’s definitely worth a look.
REVIVAL #3 is available now at your FLCS or by order from imagecomics.com.
