No comeback.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That clarity stuck.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From there, zombie media exploded. The Walking Dead. Shaun of the Dead. 28 Days Later. The Last of Us. Different tones, different monsters, same agreement scribbled in the margins:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you\u2019re bitten, you\u2019re done.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some stories argued over timing.
