Story Denny O’Neil Art Howard Chaykin
Dom is out
gambling and for once has decided to quit when he was ahead. Of course, it would be that moment that the police
have forgotten about their protection payoffs and raid the place.
Luckily for
Dom, the Commissioner needs a Brigand for Hire.
It appears that he’s sweet on Zelda Pinkley who is running around with Louie
Kelt a gangster. Luckily Sabbath knows Zelda
from school and manages an invitation.
Dom asks around
and Kelt is a bad man selling blood to the Spanish Civil War and is rumoured to
be a Zombie. Sabbath rings Dom and tells
him that Kelt’s men are zombies and Zelda is getting married to Kelt tonight.
Naturally, Dom
tries to stop the wedding and discovers that garlic, holy water and crosses
don’t work on zombies but a solid right hook does. He manages to stop the zombie gangsters and
rescue Zelda – who is disappointed that she will have to cancel her honeymoon.
Again the art
is awesome and the fights are great. I
like the idea that Dom confuses zombies and vampires. The idea is similar to The Scorpion #2 but
plays it completely different. And shows
that Dom is his own character with original adventures and not retooled
Scorpion adventures.
The Marvel
Premiere story was published after this.
