Zombies Christmas Carol is a limited miniseries published by Marvel Comics in 2011. It's written by Jim McCann and illustrated by‎ David Baldeon and Jeremy Treece. While not connected to the Marvel Zombies line, it has themes in common with the work, featuring renowned characters battling the zombie apocalypse—in this case, Ebenezer Scrooge of A Christmas Carol.One Christmas Eve, as a plague of zombies inexorably sweeps through London, Scrooge refuses to help anyone affected by the circumstances, including his nephew Fred, his clerk Bob Cratchit, and especially the Hungry Dead themselves. He's visited by the zombie ghost of his former partner, Jacob Marley, who warns Scrooge that he will be visited by three other spirits in his only hope of changing himself and saving the world. For Scrooge has much more to do with this plague than he'd care to admit, and humanity's time is almost up... |

Foreshadowing: The initial description of Scrooge as someone whose heart was so frozen that no temperatures could affect him, taken from the book, foreshadows his role in spreading the Hungry Death. The ghostly hearse and horses leading it, a random event in the original novel, makes Scrooge dwell on the infected horse bite he got as a young man. The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come has a jawbone, a curled hood, and hands similar to that of Scrooge himself, particularly when it first appears. |

comment |
Hope Bringer: Scrooge's sister Fran was this in life, and his nephew Fred is seen as the last bastion of hope in the world through his cheeriness and goodwill towards men, regardless of their circumstances. In the end, Scrooge himself becomes this and is able to save humanity. |

Undeath Always Ends: Subverted, as the zombies not being able to die is part of what makes them so horrifying and numerous. Played straight after Scrooge reforms, as zombies that needed death are granted it. |
