We are given the entire progression of the somewhat free willed zombie (he wears a necklace that has a twin, whoever possesses it controls him, but at certain times he can resist its powers). ... Read More Rating: - The year of the ZombieThe sad and tragic tale of Simon William Garth, the Zombie, started in the fifties when comic book legends Stan Lee and Bill Everett created the undead character for Atlas's horror comic Menace. Newsstands were flooded with a wave of horror titles like Tales from the Crypt, Black Cat, Weird and Dick Briefer's horrific classic The Monster of Frankenstein.
