Frank Darabont spent five fruitless years of pitching an idea for a zombie television series. But he's back on Hollywood’s A-list after The Walking Dead, which he created from Robert Kirkman’s original comic book, generated higher ratings in its first season than any of AMC’s previous original shows. Now Darabont has two Hollywood Guild award nominations to go with his three Oscar nods for writing and directing The Shawshank Redemption and The Green Mile. He talks about his longtime love affair with the undead with Deadline TV Contributor Ray Richmond.

Lately though, this has started to change.
To be sure, there were a few apocalyptic series from the past but not many.

It looks like a new Doc Savage book is in the works.
The Desert Demons
by Will Murray & Lester Dent writing as Kenneth Robeson
The skies over California explode with blood-red energies that resemble demon cyclones, but behave like intelligent life.
Nothing can stand in their terrible path. Men, machines, even buildings are devoured by the all-destroying Desert Demons. What are they? What do they want?
Far away in his Fortress of Solitude, Doc Savage receives the summons to danger. Radioing his small band of fighting specialists, the mighty bronze man orders them to rush to Los Angeles, prepared to combat the otherworldly menace.
But this time it's different. This time it's personal…
For one of their own has fallen victim to the unstoppable, unearthly things.
