Product Description

Those who don’t learn from history are condemned to repeat it.

From the Stone Age to the information age, the undead have threatened to engulf the human race. They’re coming. They’re hungry.

Don’t wait for them to come to you!

This is the graphic novel the fans demanded: major zombie attacks from the dawn of humanity. On the African savannas, against the legions of ancient Rome, on the high seas with Francis Drake . . . every civilization has faced them. Here are the grisly and heroic stories–complete with eye-popping artwork that pulsates with the hideous faces of the undead.

Organize before they rise!

Scripted by the world’s leading zombie authority, Max Brooks, Recorded Attacks reveals how other eras and cultures have dealt with–and survived–the ancient viral plague. By immersing ourselves in past horror we may yet prevail over the coming outbreak in our time.

If you like graphic novels, buy it

Review by EchoMirage, 2010-08-18

I didn't realize this was a graphic novel when I ordered it. Had I know, I wouldn't have bought it. If this is your sort of thing, then go for it. Otherwise, it's simply about 6-8 stories taken from the back of the "zombie survival guide", made into a short comic strip, and slapped together.


Wow, big let down.

Review by J. McDonald, 2010-08-03

I was very surprised at how unfulfilling this was. I'm a zombie veteran, and a big fan of Max Brooks and I can honestly say that this is worth 2 dollars on a used book stand. No more.

It fails at everything it should have strived for. It's a collection of VERY brief stories of human interactions with zombies throughout time. However, some of these stories get no more than a few pages, so you never connect with a single character in the slightest, it's just a quick face, then gone. If you are not going to have your audience connect to any characters on any level you better deliver on the spectacle level, and give us some really cool zombie action. Which is doesn't do very well.

How cool would it be to see a few pages of some cavemen throwing a few spears at zombies? It's not very cool. There were only 2 or 3 scenarios that depicted some cool scenarios, but hardly enough to warrant the creation of this book. Can't help but think that this is a shallow attempt in to CASH in. It lacks all the charisma of Max's earlier books.

Save your money for the next Walking Dead issue.

You've been warned.


way to cash in

Review by GaryGekko, 2010-07-27

If you already have the fabulous zombie survival guide. Then you already have these stories.
If on the other hand you have no imagination then you may need this picture book.


Max Brooks graphic novel style

Review by J. K. Estle, 2010-06-30

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R1R75M3BH92E3B This book is great. Its a must have if you have already read Max Brook's other books. This artwork in it is in black and white (which is one of the book's only drawbacks). Its interesting how it never really states how and where the zombie disease came from. The best story in this book takes place in Rome. A local Roman ruler sets up defenses and wards off a zombie attack. [...]


Zombie Survival Guide is AMAZIG!

Review by Basta Giovanni Battista, 2010-05-30

Assolutamente un capolavoro grafico di eccellente qualità.
Non ho molte parole a riguardo, ma senz'altro uno dei migliori tra i book in mio possesso.
