Back in 2021, during the first season of the animated What If…? series, Marvel fans were introduced to a reality where a zombie apocalypse had decimated the MCU. That episode was loosely based on the comic book Marvel Zombies, by The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman. It proved so popular, Marvel Television has spun it off into its own limited series, also called Marvel Zombies . Before the four episode series drops on September 24, we got the chance to chat with Marvel Zombies EP Bryan Andrews, and the head of Marvel Television, Brad Winderbaum, about this gleefully gory version of the MCU.
Nerdist: This is obviously a very different story from the original Marvel Zombies comic . But were there any moments from the comic you definitely wanted to replicate on screen?
