  Following the Charles Dickens storyline, this installment revolves around Scrooges visit by the Ghost of Christmas Past that presented not only Scrooges past, but who started the zombie plague -- or rather, what started the plague. I wasnt overjoyed at the depiction of how it began spreading. It just seemed a little farfetched to me. Normally, a zombie outbreak with result from two things, a virus or necromancy and Zombies Christmas Carol doesnt really state which, though it leans towards virus for sure. It doesnt give the origins of the virus, just that an animal started it. I was a little disappointed in not learning where the virus came from, but McCann looks like hell string us along to keep us interested and hopefully give an answer sometime in the next few issues. I suspect the next two will be about the present and future ghosts and then therell be a final issue to tie it all together. Read Full Review
