Dead Eyes Open is a six-issue mini-series written by Matthew Shepherd in 2006. In this unsettling and darkly humorous tale, the dead are rising—but they aren’t your typical, shambling zombies.
At the heart of the story is Dr. John Requin, who unexpectedly becomes the unwilling focal point of a cultural and social hurricane. As the phenomenon spreads, the series blends black humor, political satire, and family drama into a unique redefinition of the undead genre.
Witty, bizarre, and thought-provoking, Dead Eyes Open delivers a fresh and daring twist on what it means to come back from the dead.
