Hi guys!
I finally decided to jump into the Army of Darkness/Evil Dead 2 comic books! I'm a huge comic book/manga collector (Marvel's Doctor Strange, Hellboy/BPRD, Berserk, Junji Ito, anything related to witchcraft or H.P. Lovecraft...) and the only ones I had for the Evil Dead franchise was the Bolton's AOD and ED comic books adaptations and the first trade paperback of Dynamite's AOD series (Ashes 2 Ashes). So, it's time to fix that!
My god, they really milked the franchises!!! To not go totally broke, I decided to do some research to know what buy first and what I should avoid. I bought the 3 omnibus from Dynamite (series 1-2) of the AOD comics and I pre-ordered the Evil Dead 2 Omnibus (but this one might get cancelled based on what I learned about Space Goat).
I decided to stay away from the many weird crossovers (most TPB are out-of-print anyway and they aren't part of the main continuity). The only one that I wanted was the AOD/ Reanimator crossover which in part of the first omnibus anyway (but I still need the new one-shot "Army of Darkness vs Reanimator").
Anyway, long story short, during my research, I built a timeline to understand how the comics worked, and I added the games to complete it.
Here's the result (for now -- I'll update it over time)
