The best of the volumes so far. Yeah, I know that this is volume 3, so that doesn't sound like a big deal. But this is where the game changes for our ragtag band of survivors. Don't trust the Government, don't get too comfortable with all the characters, and be happy that volume 4 is easily accessible.
This is the 3rd book in the series, containing chapters 9 to 12.The story carries on directly from the end of chapter 8 at the end of the 2nd book. The book contains a nice balance of plot building and action, although things feel like they are diverging from the '28 Days Later' and '28 Weeks Later' films somewhat. Some of the events don't seem to fit in with the spirit of the films, even if there are no direct contradictions.I also don't like some of the wording in chapters 11 and 12. It seems
Story Synopsis: (view spoiler)[After Derrick recovers, the team is ready to leave Kate's camp, and takes Douglas (Kate's son) with them. Soon after getting on the road, the four are soon forced to hide from an American military helicopter. The captain and his men are searching for Selena – who claims not to know why – but before giving up, they shoot the tires of the car Selena and the group were using to travel. Starting then, Selena and the others are forced to come up with creative ways to st...
Great manga continuation of the film "28 Days Later" that continues the story of Selena from the movie.
Decent enough story - this is reading like the middle act of a good horror movie. Getting closer to the truth, getting too close to the antagonists, and getting a little more hardened and battle-weary. Less of the infected, more of the bad judgment and evil in men's hearts that springs forth from bad situations.Good story, and while it took me a long time to finally wade into book 3, I think in actually looking forward to book 4.
Oh yes. Intense, a return to form. This is what survival zombie horror should be like.
Ah, how to write this review without spoilers??? Okay, I'm going to attempt it...The 28 Days Later graphics extend the story told in the original movie of the same name and fill in the history that occurred before that movie's sequel, "28 Weeks Later." If you read (or watch) TWD, you'll see similarities between TWD's Michonne and 28DL's Selena—both kick major ass, are hated by stupid people (mostly male), and are the best blade wielders in their respective series. Personally, I freaking love Mic...
Getting More Like the Walking Dead
In Hot Zone our team continues their journey towards London, dodging infected along the way. In this story a new adversary is introduced: the United States military and one colonel(?) in particular, who seems to have a personal vendetta against Selena, the basis of which is yet to be revealed. Also in Hot Zone do we get our first hint at the fate of Jim and Hannah, the two other survivors from the feature film.
4 StarsLoved it; and the cover is just so awesome. As Selena leads the journalists further into the danger zone; they continue to have issues with man, moreso than the "infected." At the end of all things; MAN is not who/what I should be worried about, but with all dystopian novels, is that not the case???What I didn't like were the illustrations of Selena. The artist made her look more manly to me, with harder edges. If we all remember correctly, Selena was anything but manly. Strong, but not u...
Este arco dio un giro interesante. Sabemos un poco más sobre el pasado de Selena y lo que le sucedió a Hannah y Jim, pero sólo los menciona apenas. Lo cierto es que ahora hay alguien buscándola y no sabemos por qué. Cuando pensamos que íbamos a tener respuestas, el volumen termina, espero que en el siguiente nos la den.El tomo me pareció muy bueno porque parece irse por el cliché "Vamos a buscar la cura", pero el autor da un giro interesante y muy apreciado que lleva la historia a otras partes.N...
The best volume thus far. Action picks up and gives little time for reflection for the band of survivors. I could have had some more flashbacks, overall a solid volume.
Some serious $h*t just went down and def an important volume, not much of the crew is left and I wonder who is next?
Nella terza parte si entra nel vivo, non più flashback e approfondimenti per conoscere (o ricordare) i personaggi, ma incontri e scontri con quelli che si presume saranno i veri cattivi della serie.Non credo sia uno spoiler ma...(view spoiler)[... è quasi scontato che sarebbero stati militari/scienziati americani, impegnati a cercare una sorta di cura che permetta loro di sfruttare gli infetti come arma (hide spoiler)]... in pratica come si vede in metà di film/serie di questo genere.I tre sopra...
La storia prosegue mantenendo gli standard molto alti.Ritmo serrato che spinge il lettore a una lettura a perdi fiato.
actual rating: 3.5I thought we were going to be moving into new territory after the last volume but this one has taken a step backwards in my opinion and is back to kind of just rehashing plot points from the original movie. I really love Selena as a character and she's definitely enough to still carry this series for me but I wish they would try to do something more original with it.
Selena doesn’t give a bloody hell!!!
Things pick up a notch in this volume as adversaries beyond the Infected make themselves known, and Selena proves just how much ass she can truly kick. This series is growing on me (as implicated by the way I've put down other reads to focus on this). Here's hoping it continues its upward trend.4 Selena Machete Kills for Volume 3: Hot Zone.

I have been enjoying the series. This graphic was great with the graphics. I did not like how they depicted Americans in this novel at all. I was a little disappointed in that. The plot was a little predictable as well.
