HUMAgeddon by Robert Butt and Illustrated by Scott Twells

KnightWatch Press is a new independent publishing house. Their first dabble into the publishing world is with the comic book HUMAgeddon written by Robert Butt and Illustrated by Scott Twells. David Naughton-Shires, one of the owners of KnightWatch Press, asked me to review their first zombie title.

The world as humans knew it had ended. The dead have completely taken it over and forced humans into isolated islands. A zombie family is enjoying dinner, when a knock comes at the door. It is none other than a mob of humans ready to fight and take back what was rightfully theirs. But the zombies aren’t going to make it easy for them.

HUMAgeddon was a fun and quick read that gives a different take on the zombie apocalypse. The zombies are not seen as a threat in the story, but humans are. I really enjoyed the plot, it was different and creative, but it did fall a bit flat at times. With this being the first comic issue, it was hard to really get into the meat of the story. However, this issue was a good set-up.

The illustrations by Scott Twells were very good. I really enjoyed the art style of the comic. It wasn’t too realistic, but then it wasn’t too cartoony. The gore was pretty cool too, it wasn’t too graphic where a kid would look at it and be scared for life.

This was a good start to something that has the potential to be a one of a kind comic. I will be looking forward to the next issue and will review it as soon as I can get my hands on it. I will have to give HUMAgeddon, 4 Undead Heads out of 5.
