Victorian Undead Preview and Marvel Twilight Parody Video


Marvel arrive at the Twilight parody about two years after everybody else,


And as an awkward segway into the next part of the post...

Anyway, Victorian Undead.

Essentially it's a comic about a zombie uprising in 1850s London, with Sherlock Holmes going out to solve the mystery and fight the hoards of undead.

It's by the writer of the excellent 'Scarlet Traces', Ian Edginton, so it should be good. :)

Here's a page from the preview,

"Corr blimey, the dead be rising so they is! 'Ow will this effect me jellied eels!?!"

Still, stock Hammer Horror Londoners should be marginally less idiotic then the people in Return of the Living Dead, which I saw yesterday.

I think I like ItsJustSomeRandomGuys better. At least that isn't ripping off Robot Chicken as much.

Agreed, this just so stupid. IJSRG as some Shakespare kind of comedy and Drama.... did they show the action figure's reaction to Super Hero Squad?

a GOOD comic book action figure parody of this.

On the other hand, Marvel's production values beat the snot outta ItsJustSomeRandomGuys videos. FACIAL ANIMATION Z0MG!

(But his writing is still better.)

They should have just hired him to write the darn things.
