However, there are always exceptions. In my mind there are such things as Zombieland and Shaun of the Dead, because they bring humor to the situation at hand. In comics, though, you can't go wrong with The Walking Dead, which is more about the characters trying to live in the world that has been turned upside down, rather than about the zombies themselves. In books, World War Z is a must read, as it is what feels like a very real historical account of an event that hasn't happened. It is so well told that it you would swear that we all lived through it. So, while the whole zombie movement is, for the most part, lost on me, I still do dip my toes into the world from time to time.
Case in point, iZombie. I had only encountered this title as a preview on the back of another series that I read. It interested me, a woman who is a zombie who must eat brains from time to time to survive, only when she does, the memories of the dead person become stuck in her mind, forcing her to deal with the problems that may have happened to the person during their life. It got my interest, but not enough for me to invest in the comics themselves. When I was looking for something new to try and read, though, I decided to give the trade paperback a whirl.
