It would seem the walking dead are still as popular as ever. So popular, in fact, that Marvel keeps pitting it’s most popular characters against them. Case in point today is the upcoming comic Night of the Living Deadpool (great title, btw) wherein the titular character takes on hordes of flesh eating zombies.

Want to know more? Of course you do. Here’s the scoop directly from Marvel:

After waking up from a pretty epic food coma, our hero finds himself in the middle of the zombie apocalypse! And Deadpool’s not the only one with a full belly – there’s plenty of brainless eating machines just looking for their next good meal! Nothing says “tasty meal” like a mutant who can re-grow his flesh!

Look for Night of the Living Deadpool, written by Cullen Bunn with art by Ramon Rosnas, to hit stores in January. Check out some preview pages after the break.

We all remember the taste that was left in our mouth the moment we first heard Nicolas Cage would be playing our favorite damned motorcyclist from Hell, Johnny Blaze in 2007’s Ghost Rider, and that feeling didn’t go away after walking out of the theater.

With that said, it’s hard to believe that the new trailer for the sequel looks halfway decent, but you may want to start believing. Directed by Neveldine & Taylor, the guys that brought you the Crank films and the good parts of Jonah Hex, and a story written by Dark Knight’s David Goyer, the film looks like it may be the bad ass we were missing back in ’07. Here’s the overly detailed synopsis.

In the successor to the worldwide hit Ghost Rider, Johnny – still struggling with his curse as the devil’s bounty hunter – is hiding out in a remote part of Eastern Europe when he is recruited by a secret sect of the church to save a young boy (Fergus Riordan) from the devil (Ciaran Hinds). At first, Johnny is reluctant to embrace the power of the Ghost Rider, but it is the only way to protect the boy – and possibly rid himself of his curse forever.

You may be thinking to yourself “a sequel with a kid sidekick? Pass!”, but after looking at the style Neveldine and Taylor are best known for, you can only imagine what insane ideas they can bring to a character and universe like this. One hint? Fire piss.

Take a look after the jump and let us know what you think. See Spirit of Vengeance in theaters on February 17th.

It’s nice to see that even though Marvel spends a great deal of time and money on big budget, live-action movies they don’t forget to also make smaller, less expensive animated projects as well. Case in point is the current animated series Thor & Loki: Blood Brothers currently available in, among other places, the iTunes store.

The animated mini-series has been a big hit for Marvel and now we’ve got some video to share with you today that takes us behind the scenes of this show. But don’t let me waste time talking about it, here’s the scoop directly from Marvel:
