Hollywood Zombies was a trading card series manufactured by Topps, which portrayed American celebrities at the time as flesh-eating zombies. [1] Released in 2007, the series was available only in select comic book stores and two home video stores, Suncoast Motion Picture Company and FYE.

Among the many commercial artists and illustrators contributing to this series were Layron DeJarnette, Drew Friedman, Jay Lynch, Hermann Mejia and John Zeleznik. [2] A number of the writers and artists had previously worked on either the Wacky Packages and Garbage Pail Kids trading card series or Mad magazine.

A comic book based on the cards was planned by IDW Publishing, but it was never published. Whether it would have been an ongoing series, a limited series, or a one-shot is unknown.
