Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Two idealistic scientists unwittingly developing the deadliest virus the world has ever known...A family making desperate choices as they struggle to survive the Infection's initial outbreak...A lone gunslinging survivor battling the Infected in a decimated London...Four original tales chronicling the greatest horror humanity has ever faced come together in a bloody conclusion as terrifying as the Rage Virus itself.
Written by horror master Steve Niles (creator of the classic 30 Days of Night) and illustrated by three of the most terrifyingly talented illustrators working in comics today, 28 Days Later: The Aftermath begins before the hit movie—and ends with a shocking revelation that leads into the events of the sequel, 28 Weeks Later.

Fox Atomic Comics makes an auspicious jump into the Graphic Novel arena with 28 DAYS LATER: THE AFTERMATH, a gorgeous full-colour prequel/follow-up to Danny Boyle's zombie epic 28 DAYS LATER, which also serves as a prequel to 28 WEEKS LATER. If only they had charged $10.00 more for this book, you would have gone home from the store 28 bucks later.......
The book, written by the current go-to guy for comic-book Horror, Steve Niles, tells a trio of unrelated stories that come together for the finale, in a most underwhelming fashion. Characterization has never been Niles' strong suit, and THE AFTERMATH is more of the same. We meet the architects of the Rage Virus, join a family trying to escape London after the virus breaks out, and prowl the deserted streets of the city with a gun-wielding vigilante, before Niles attempts to join the stories together without much success. (Are there any potential readers of a book like this that haven't seen George Romero's classic NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD....? Niles must think so, since he stole the ending from it, lock, stock, and barrel........) The art runs the gamut from serviceable to pretty damned impressive......It's just too bad the art didn't have a better story to go with it. Fans of 28 DAYS LATER will find nothing here they haven't seen before. It's all wrapped up in a pretty package, and it's well worth a look, just don't go in expecting too much.

A prequel volume.
Here you get to see how the Rage virus came into being as the result of an experiment into something heading in almost completely the opposite direction.
There are multiple different short stories here that overlap and intersect at time, at some of the early victims - one faiily in picture that was just out for a picnic on the mother's birthday, for example. Another of a lone man deciding one city is his, and that he will go all Omega Man.

I hope these books continue, they would be great movies. Lots more to the 28 Days Later legacy.

I should preface this brief review by saying I am not particularly interested in graphic novels as such. I don't usually read them. I don't collect them. I went through 28 Days Later: The Aftermath to see if the graphic novel fleshed out the film story line any. It did on several points. I don't think I can relate any of those points without spoiling it for others, however. It only takes a matter of minutes to go through the book of 105 pages. It may be worth your time, but I am not sure it is worth your money.
P.S. I was not particularly impressed by the artwork, but some panels looked almost as realistic as photographs.

This was a great Christmas present for my 16 year old son, who believes nothing is more central to Christmas than a zombie apocalypse.
