When does Marvel Zombies take place, and where does it fit on the MCU timeline? You'd think that would be a pretty straightforward question to answer, but Disney's new animated series completely flips the book on what we know about Marvel's cinematic universe, vilifies otherwise heroic characters, and brings them back from the dead, literally. But despite the spin-off being based on a comic book series that turned our favorite heroes into brain-eating monsters, the new show actually does relate to other MCU projects.
Set in an apocalyptic alternate universe where many of Earth's mightiest have been infected by a Zombie Plague, the four-part series follows a desperate group of survivors who take on the super-powered undead in order to try to save the world. The series features zombified versions of MCU heroes and villains such as Captain America, Hawkeye, and Thanos.
