Welcome to the Deadworld! Before there was The Walking Dead, there was Deadworld. We find the aftermath of a supernatural holocaust where desperate humans are trapped in a world of the walking dead, intelligent zombies, and the living who will do anything to survive. The promise of Safe Haven reveals a much darker and sinister purpose, when victims find themselves in a medical faculty which will stop at nothing to combat the zombie plague. To the unfortunate, Safe Haven becomes known as the Slaughterhouse. THIS ISSUE: In an effort to combat the growing plague of the walking dead, researchers try a scientific approach to save mankind. Using humans as guinea pigs, natural diseases such as leprosy, AIDS, and cancer are used to infect the zombies. Survivors in this undead world find that the greatest horror may not be the zombies but other humans. Slaughterhouse continues to serve as a great introduction to the apocalyptic Deadworld comic series. Part 2 of 4. Note that although Slaughterhouse is meant to stand on is own, it follows "Deadworld: Requiem for the World" and precedes "Deadworld: War of the Dead" in the Deadworld rebooted series.
