"It is frightening, haunting, gloomy, grave, and delectably mystifying." - Talking Comics. "Deadworld does a great job in a creating a zombie world with its own unique style. We get to see this world through the eyes of a group of kids struggling to grow up fast, and we get the sense that anything can happen in this chaotic, unpredictable world. It's a great ride through a post-apocalyptic zombie-torn world, and it begs you to come back looking for more." - Dan Wrobel, IGNAuthor Biography
