The Ultimate Universe began in 2000 with the start of Ultimate Spider-Man. The title proved to be wildly popular and spawned an entire universe. One thing that Marvel said they would never do is crossover the Ultimate Universe with the mainstream, or 616, Marvel Universe. Marvel dropped plenty of hints about a story-arc in the Ultimate Fantastic Four series. Turns out it was not quite what people thought. This was the birth of the Marvel Zombies Universe, Earth-2149.

Thanks for the chronology, I was a bit confused about the reading order.
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work!

I only disagree w/ placing the Dead Days material ahead of the Army of Darkness material, because in Dead Days, you open up right into the onset of the "infection", whilst in beginning of the Army of Darkness stuff, the infection hasn't started yet...just my feeling on it.
ReplyDeleteI put the Dead Days as number 7 in my ordering. So there's the one page start of Zombies in AOD #13 then the story arc then dead days...
ReplyDeletewhats the chronology now. i think theres a marvel zombies 5 now right? is there any other material between this post to the current publications?
ReplyDeleteIf you finish reading all that manetion read age of ultron vs marvel zombies is the continuation of the marvel zombies 5 part 5 . Storyline takes place in a new time zone . Read this new arc in the website http://www.readcomics.net/comic/age-of-ultron-vs.-zombies-secret-wars-battleworld
