I look forward to checking this one out, I've always had a soft spot for zombie stories. Any chance of revealing to us if the human infected are the classic variety or the newer "running" zombies?

Shufflers, they move mostly normal except where loss of limb or distortion of limbs inhibit functions.

NATURE'S NEW NORMAL
Image Comics Introduces Rebel Blood, a Zombie Story Like No Other

"Save yourself. Stay in the woods. Pray it hasn't reached the wolves… and keep your gun loaded." All he knows about what has happened to the world as he knew it has been left in an ominous message. And it's clear that everything has... changed.

Image Comics and Shadowline are pleased to announce REBEL BLOOD, a new four-part miniseries coming in March with art and concept by Riley Rossmo (GREEN WAKE, COWBOY NINJA VIKING, PROOF) and script by newcomer Alex Link. This gruesome new 21st century zombie outbreak story pays tribute to horror comics' post-war heyday of titles such as The Vault of Horror, The Haunt of Fear, and Tales From the Crypt, while presenting a concept to rival the best of The Twilight Zone!

"I sketch and paint all the time while I'm working on different projects," explained Rossmo. "The concept for REBEL BLOOD is something that just began as some sketches, but quickly took on a life of it's own, to mutate. REBEL BLOOD is what happens when I just run wild with a concept and let it happen."

"I'm really excited about this project," said Shadowline Publisher, Jim Valentino. "I'm not a big zombie fan, but this one got me because it was so different than all the others out there. And, I swear, the ending knocked me off my chair. I think it will surprise everyone."

REBEL BLOOD #1 introduces Forest Ranger Chuck Neville, who, after a strange, unexpected silence, receives a final radio message that a plague is sweeping the country. He learns that the disease has turned every living creature into zombies, all at once rendering the entire animal kingdom unpredictable, violent, and willing to tear apart their neighbors with their bare teeth.

He races home to rescue his family, coming face-to-face with unbelievable horrors along his way and fighting to stay alive. However, when he reaches home, he may find the most horrible part of it all waiting for him...

REBEL BLOOD #1, a 32-page full-color horror comic book for $3.50, will be on sale in stores on March 28 and available for order in the January issue of Previews. A preview of REBEL BLOOD #1 will be featured in the back of both HAUNT #20 (AUG110523), a 32-page full-color horror comic book for $2.99 that goes on sale December 28, 2011, and SPAWN #215 (NOV110468), a 32-page full-color horror comic book for $2.99 that goes on sale January 11, 2012.

That looks so effing rad. I keep getting more and more excited for this one. Shadowline is looking like it's going to have a killer 2012. :twisted:

This book is looking good, the wait for it is killing me. Mostly cause of the the lack of info that I know about. I seen the 2 or 3? page preview in Haunt 20 but I think there is only one word said so it only gave me more questions! Already got it added to my pull list at the shop i work at and I make sure to tell all our zombie and independent customers about it. I wish you success with it! Shadowline is getting some good comics out there now days, its good to see.

We have 5 page previews in most of our upcoming comics of this and Peter Panzerfaust #1.

Keep a sharp eye out for them, but, fair warning...
the first five pages of Rebel Blood are mostly silent (but very, very cool)
