There are multiple dimensions, and within each are alternate Earths, each with human beings on them, all struggling to live another day; loving, laughing and hating. Some worlds are almost identical to our own, and some are wildly different. This is irrelevant, for in the end, all will be destroyed when the dead rise from their graves, hungry and snarling, to devour the living. But every Earth has its protectors; gleaming beacons of hope and ragtag bands of misfit freaks with powers beyond those of normal men, who fight to preserve life. These heroes have kept evil at bay and maintained the status quo until now. Though powerful beyond measure, can even they stop the Zombie Apocalypse? When the dead swarm over the globe in numbers beyond imagination, and those who die join their ranks, will there be any hope for the rest of us who are merely flesh and blood? Within the pages of this book, the end of the world will challenge these heroes like nothing before. Prepare yourself for the greatest battle of all time, for when superheroes fight zombies, no one is safe.

本書は、マルチバースという壮大なキャンバスを舞台に、無敵の象徴である「ヒーロー」と、抗えぬ死を体現する「ゾンビ」の激突を描いた破滅の叙事詩です。著者陣は、アメコミ的な万能感とゾンビ文学の絶望を融合させ、読者に「真の正義とは、敗北が約束された状況で何を選択するか」という過酷な問いを突きつけます。 個の輝きが死者の群れに飲み込まれていく光景は、秩序という神話が崩壊する過程を熱烈に描き出します。英雄たちが守ってきた日常が、かつて愛した人々によって蹂躙される悲劇。その極限状態で見せる魂の叫びこそが、本作の持つ最大の文学的魅力であり、読者の心を激しく揺さぶるのです。
