review:
'Undead Messiah Vol. 2' by Gin Zarbo is a manga with zombies. I enjoyed the first volume, so I thought I'd try the second one.
In the first volume, we learned that Tim is a fan of zombies until zombies are real. He and his baby brother have been rescued by a mysterious bandaged stranger, and that where this story starts. In this book, Tim finds out about the mysterious stranger. He also learns where all the zombies came from. his little brother Elian exhibits weird characteristics and Tim joins a group of people who are suspicious of the strangers motives.
The story is full of tropes from other fiction: Zombies who may be able to think or have superpowers, a powerful, well-meaning scientist who may be out of control, etc. While I was reading this, I kept getting distracted by other things. That's never a good sign. I enjoyed the first volume well enough, but this one was kind of a mess.
I received a review copy of this manga from Tokyopop and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this manga.
