Affably Evil: Emperor Zombie is nothing but unfailingly polite and friendly to his colleagues to the extent that he unintentionally makes things awkward when he thinks he accidentally insulted the age of his two elderly henchwomen. He's so upbeat most of the time, that the times he does something heinous come off as legitimately shocking. |

comment |
Animated Adaptation: Contrary to most animated adaptations of Mignola's work, this one retains Mignola's own art style, with a lot of blacks. It's also slightly Animesque due in part to its animation being handled by Korean studio DR Movie. |

Alternate History: The premise is of Screw-On Head's secret exploits under, at least, Abraham Lincoln. |
