28 Days Later Vol 1: London Calling Hardcover
by Michael Alan Nelson (Author), Declan Shalvey (Illustrator)
This book chronicles the journey of Selena, a survivor of the zombie apocalypse that plagued the UK, as she guides a team of American reporters through the post-apocalyptic landscape of London. In spite of her misgivings, Selena agrees to the task, following the inspiration from the popular zombie horror/action series.
Amid a bid to clandestinely breach a quarantined United Kingdom, their scheme is thwarted and the protagonists must contend with threatening U.S. forces and flesh-eating zombies. Comprising of remarkable visuals, the book offers an adrenaline-filled narrative despite a occasionally predictable storyline. Moreover, the characters are so predictable and overplayed (the journalists are ridiculously self-confident and naive, while Selena is stoic to the point of being disagreeable) that figuring out their motivations becomes a challenge.
At one point, readers are nearly ready to root for the zombies. Still, there are enough cliff-hangers and spine-chilling moments that one can overlook the dearth of character development. This title is best suited as a supplemental purchase for a general graphic-novel collection in need of a solid horror work. The tie-in with the popular movie series is bound to find interested teens.
