Johann Shmidt, better known as Red Skull, is a major antagonist in the 2006 miniseries Marvel Zombies.
Red Skull along with almost every other hero and villain became a flesh-eating zombie after Sentry of Earth-91126 came on their dimension.
Biography[]
Early life[]
Little is known about Red Skull's life before the zombie plague occurs on Earth-2149, but it can be presumed is most likely the same as his Earth-616 counterpart.
The Zombie Plague[]
After Sentry landed on Earth-2149, he infected the Avengers, causing them to spread the virus all over the world. After about 24 hours, almost every hero and villain was turned.
After the cosmic zombies finished working their secret weapon, they go back to Times Square, only to find a horde of zombified villains attacking Galactus, even managing to wear him down a bit. As they put in a few last minutes adjustments, they assemble around the device and fire right at the planet eater. The first blast visibly shakes the giant, the second blast causes him to crash down to the ground, sending the villains to run from the falling planet eater. Once Galactus was down, the villains rush back to him as they planned to devour the giant. However, they were stopped by their arch-enemies, as they said "Our kill, our feast!".
A fight breaks between the cosmic zombies and the zombified super-villains. Red Skull squares off against his arch-enemy, Colonel America, but was no match for him. As the nazi pinned down to the ground and having his left arm cut off, Red Skull tricks Colonel America into a false sense of security, scooping the remnants of his remaining brains out of his skull, killing the super-soldier in the process.
Spider-Man sees this and takes matters into his own hands and chops nazi's head off his power cosmic. Red Skull laughs maniacally as he finally kills his long-time enemy, saying it was worth it, before being crushed by Giant Man.

Trivia[]
- He was created by Mark Millar and Greg Land.
- The Zombie Red Skull, alongside the Earth-807128 counterpart of Red Skull, is one of the only two versions of Red Skull to have killed Captain America (though in the Zombie Red Skull's case, his Captain America was named Colonel America despite Colonel America’s revival by T’Challa’s dead son).
