Estuvo bien, no es el mejor volumen pero tampoco el peor.
La primera parte es una introducción a Marvel Zombies, en la que Reed contacta con una versión suya de otro universo (que al principio pensé que era la del 616) que lo engaña para básicamente comérselo.
Nunca leí nada de MZ, lo más cercano a eso fue el capítulo de What If, así que estuvo entretenido.
En la segunda parte aparece la madre de los Storm, que los abandonó por años para buscar Atlantis, y ahora apareció porque necesita su ayuda. Esto obviamente nos dirige hacia Namor.
Fue interesante pero hay cosas con el arte y diálogos que me molestaron un poco.

Zombies and Namor! Unfortunately it has "art" by Greg Land.

Zombies and Namor! A great set of stories and fantastic art!

The origin of the Marvel Zombies is a moderately disappointing story, and to couple it with Greg Land's porn tracing disguised as artwork is just an insult to anyone who wanted to read the story. This volume also includes Namor's origin which ties into the reveal that Sue and Johnny Storm's mom is actually alive and really, really, really stupid.

I know it's ults, it's not quite the 616 characers but still, I can't help but feel that they've bene flattened, especially Johnny. I do like the more serious take on the Zombie storyline than the dakr comedy we later got in Marvel Zombies.

This one I struggled with. This volume holds issues 21-26. Issues 21-23, AMAZING! We get introduced into the marvel zombies world for the first time and it’s just awesome! Mark Millar does a great job of making the story chilling and had you at the edge of your seat. I only wish it could’ve been a longer arc. (I guess that’s what the marvel zombies mini series is for.) with Greg Lands artwork this story was just amazing. After that issues 24-26 are the introduction to Ultimate Namor who has a very huge twist to him. The story was good but I did have some gripes with it. So story starts with Sue and Johnny’s mom coming back after being in hiding looking for Atlantis. She comes back because she found it and needs the FFs help. She basically tells them she knows she’s a shitty mother for leaving and let’s them know she ONLY came back because she needed their help. Sue is mad at her from jump but then agrees to help her because she gave birth to them ? Na man. If my mother disappeared and then came back only because she needed something from me. Clearly there’s no love ! It just seemed like a way for Mark Millar to get the Four involved and it felt too easy and quick. The writing in general just felt a little too silly on my opinion and not the type of Mark Millar writing I like. It was a pretty solid read all around but the first half was for sure the best.

I did not like this one as much as the others in the series, but it is still a good series overall.
See my short note on it here:

Five stars for the writing, three for the art.
This is sort of a continuation/introduction of the whole Marvel Zombies arc that happened and I missed. It puts the whole thing at the feet of Reed, does some cool cosmic interdimensional stuff, introduces Namor...
It's just a tight, great read. The art, not so much. Very plastic-looking, a few really ridiculous poses from some of the females. The consistency of the artwork has been a problem throughout this series, so it was unfortunate to see it this way.
