New Evil Dead 2 Comic Brings Back Hitler

Out next month from old friend, Ian Edginton is an Evil Dead comic with another… okay, not exactly an old friend. Still, you know in comic books no one stays dead for long.

EVIL DEAD 2: Revenge of Hitler #1 by Ian Edginton, Oscar Bazaldua, Carlos Eduardo, Chris Summers

Everybody's favorite badass is back. Oh, and Hitler too. The Evil Dead 2 Universe expands with the first in a series of "REVENGE" one-shots. Adolf Hitler had the Book of the Dead tattooed onto his body so that he could live forever, except it didn't quite work out that way. After he died in Berlin in 1945, it took someone to actually read the tattoo to reanimate him. Now he's back in the present day, and the Hellish Powers are forced to recruit Ash to put an end to his reign of terror before history repeats with a new undead army.

WHAT IS IT: A groovy authorized expansion of the ED2U! Now with the most evil Deadite ever. Yeah, that guy!

FOR FANS OF: Horror, Evil Dead, WWII

WHAT HAPPENS: Writer Ian Edginton (Dark Horse, Marvel, Judge Dredd) unleashes the ultimate horror. The Book of the Dead has never before done anything as evil as this. Join the fray with this complete one-and-done story as history is on the verge of repeating itself. The Book of the Dead has unleashed Deadite Hitler who's not only reanimated but threatening to take over the world. Ash is recruited by the Hellish Powers to put a stop to it, and if that means punching Adolf in the face atop a bomb in the air over the city, then it's all groovy.

And while we're at it, for Evil Dead 2: Cradle Of The Damned #1 out this month by Frank Hannah, Oscar Bazaldua, Carlos Eduardo and Chris Summers. And a Ty Templeton cover too…

Ash is back! Groovy Ash-approved new series and first issue available with three covers, including an EC-themed classic by Batman '66 artist Ty Templeton! As if that's not enough, Ash and Annie are back from Hell, hunting down and killing the thousands of Deadite souls loose on Earth. Thank goodness the Dark Ones show up to, well, open the Gateway that sends our heroes into the Mirror Dimension! Did NOT see that coming!

WHAT IS IT: This is a brand-new mini-series companion and sequel to the OFFICIAL EVIL DEAD 2 SEQUEL before the other sequel, EVIL DEAD 2: BEYOND DEAD BY DAWN! Certified Groovy and 100% official, baby!

FOR FANS OF: Evil Dead 2, Walking Dead, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer

WHAT HAPPENS: Evil Dead 2: Beyond Dead By Dawn writer Frank Hannah returns with a brand-new ED2Universe arc. Ash and Annie have two goals: Kill Deadites and collect their spiritual energy. Unfortunately, that ritual opens up the Gateway to the Mirror Dimension, and sucks them in, trapping them forever. Or not!
