“An investigative landing on a farming planet has brought the
crew of a Marine rescue ship face to face with an entire population of
flesh-eating zombies. Even if they manage to survive the initial
onslaught, their slim hopes of survival are about rot away even faster
than the moldering, deadly hordes out to devour their flesh!”

What you can’t see right now is how excited I am to write this review. I am in love with the Planet of the Living Dead
series so far. The artwork is so perfectly done that only a story this
good could perfectly compliment it. Following the events of Planet of the Living Dead #1,
this book is a fantastic sequel that leads perfectly into the next book
that will follow. The dialogue is fun, yet very militaristic, since
this one is based on the army getting to the planet. It really is not
until the end though until we see the zombies emerge, which is fine by
me since they did such a great job building up the suspense. The zombies
look great, the story is great and I highly recommend checking this one
out, you don’t really need to have read Planet of the Living Dead, but it will help. Antarctic is still killing it on horror titles.
