Iâm just hoping for a good story. If the stories are good and character driven, maybe the needle moves a bit on the marvel books.
I passed on a few Zarana first appearances this weekendâŠdidnât know she was going to be part of the new Cobra. Damn.

Debatable. There have been zombie ghost rider(s) in Marvel Zombies, i believe (although I havenât pulled the books to visually confirm. I wound assume this is the first 616 Zombie Ghost Rider.
Although one has to thinkâŠwhatâs the difference between a ghost and a zombie? If a ghost is basically âdeadââŠdoesnât that negate the zombie as a zombie is somewhere in between dead and alive?
How can you have a dead zombie?
Reminds me of one of the few funny scenes in, âScary Movie 3,â where Kevin Hart and Anthony Anderson argue about whether it is possible to, âTurn up missing,â and conclude it is something that is possible only if you are a zombie.
i assume he will get another name, havenât seen his human name yet. but given the fact he is main focus of this arc and on cover of next tpb i wouldnât be shocked if he gets a mini series next march-april with all of his back story

Zombies arenât medically dead per se. Theyâre re-animated organic beings managed by a host of some type. The person or host of the body with a conscious prior to becoming a zombie is no longer.
But one could also argue that the ghost in âghost riderâ is kind of like the symbiote that needs a host itself, theyâre working together. So the host is alive while the ghost/spirit died long ago, hence now they are a ghost.
So in the case of Zombie Ghost Rider⊠I would assume the host was alive (the conscious that makes a person a person) but re-animated by the now zombie along with a ghost attaching itself to the now zombie.
And some zombies are smarter than others, depending on the writer/creator, maybe even some who retain memories of their non-zombified self. 
Wouldnât a vampire, by definition, be a zombie? I mean they are reanimated corpses. 
funny enough the synopsis for issue 8 doesnt call him a zombie but calls him undead, they also now say hes a ww2 vet, although that may be a misprint cause at sdcc they said he died 100 years ago so 1923
Maybe⊠but a vampire doesnât destroy the conscious of the host. It just alters them to have the powers of a vampire and while they canât die, they re-animate cause they canât die except by certain methods.
From definition:
" A zombie is a mythological undead corporeal revenant created through the reanimation of a corpse."
So the host dies, then they are re-animated to become alive again. To become a vampire, one gets bit, then turns into a vampire themselves. But yes, vampires could be zombies but the host retains their conscious and memories unlike zombies (well, in most cases) but they didnât die to get re-animated.
Definition of vampire:
the reanimated body of a dead person believed to come from the grave at night and suck the blood of persons asleep
But that doesnât seem to be the case now in most depictions of the story telling.
So hmm⊠vampires are just glorified smarter zombies? Hehe⊠this is just getting silly thinking about it now.
Maybe he died 100 years ago, but his re-animated corpse fought in WW2.
