"I think it's brilliant," says Rich, casually shooting down a wave of robo-zombies with a blast of Nova Force energy. "As long as you can actually get there, which is possible if you can get up into the remote parts of Canada real fast. It's the least densely populated state, lots of defensible mountain terrain that zombies would have trouble climbing across. Lots of fresh water. Caribou and other animals to hunt. And the zombies would freeze in winter, so you can sweep through and try to kill a lot of 'em while they can't fight back -- if they'd even survive it. Depends on the zombie, but being frozen solid might permanently kill certain types of 'em."

Zombie defense plans are something Rich doesn't always put a lot of thought to. Sure, zombies exist in his world, but there are enough superheroes that they'd never get the chance to completely take over, right?

It's not like there's a whole Marvel Zombies imprint or anything.
