Prior to his death last year, George A. Romero announced that he’d been developing a new instalment in his Dead series, Road of the Dead, which he described as “The Fast and the Furious with zombies”. The film was to be directed by Romero’s longtime collaborator Matt Birman, but sadly he passed away soon after, leaving the project unrealised for the time being. However, five-time Bram Stoker Award-winning author Jonathan Maberry will give us a taste of the Road of the Dead world this week with the launch of the limited series prequel Road of the Dead: Highway to Hell, and you can take a look at a preview of the first issue here…
