    In the Marvel Zombies series, it seemed like people who really shouldn't be zombies ended up being zombies anyway (Thanos, Phoenix Force, etc.) 
      
    With that in mind, who would be completley immune to the plague (can be anybody from DC, Marvel, etc.)?

    Shouldn't Sabretooth and Wolverine? If its a virus that ends up turning you into a Zombie, shouldn't their healing factor kill the virus and thus keep them from changing?

    problem in defining who "shouldnt have" is there was never a clear definition to the nature of the plague itself,
    nor origin. alls thats known is even Uatu couldnt really make it end, and believed if not contained it would
    wipe out every reality, so he locked it in a time loop.

    it was revealed to be a lie at the end of the story. the Necronomicon told Ash that the origin was falsified.

     @King Quisling:
    yep. i think it lured him there with the hopes the MZ's would take him out.
    cant remember that much. all i know is its been defined as possible magical,
    cosmic, and viral. noted where that it adapts to infect its hosts, and may be sentient. 

    the answer to the question is rhetorical though. no one was immune, therefore no one
    would have been.

    If a healing prevents the zombification (is that a real word) of characters, then Merc With A Mouth would be a very different series ;)

    Since even magical beings and androids seem to be able to be infected Mr. Immortal is pretty much the only one i can think of that could be sort of immune at this point since he basically respawns after being killed. 
    In other words he would be able to get infected, but it would mean that he's deceased, thus respawning in perfect condition.

    Possibly. Can the virus be transmitted via fluid/flesh ingestion (or is it even airborne?) or is it just by biting etc?

    Which would mean transmission through bodily fluid. Spitting, maybe :P?  
    Would the virus pass into his blood stream before Wither destroys his attacker? Moreover, would his body automatically eradicate the virus? Interesting.

    at this point two now have. 
    Man-Thing and Sandman.
    May likely be that someone with a dispersed body cant have the rest of their body infected 
    which would make sense because their cells arent physically interconnected so theirs no path for a virus to travel 
    through.  I wonder if Sandman could actually even get the flu?
    Man-Things could be attributed to the fact that he's a quasi-mystical entity 
    tied to the Nexus Of All Realities (which when i think of that, it was sort of an error in that story as they
    had him lose his powers by not being on Earth, though its never happened whenever else he's left the
    planet nor reality, not even in Hell). 
    its likely then a character like Dust would be immune, since she doesnt have a solid body
    for the virus to travel through. also machines were obviously immune.

    Simple, any non human character i.e. Jocasta and Arron Stack
     
    they did go there uninfected after all , so in that case then Fury should be able to handle it

    All of the Marvel Zombie stuff was way better when Robert Kirkman wasn't writing it anymore, which is ironically very surprising because of his "Walking Dead" series. Infact the reason Watcher wasn't infected is the same reason Silver Surfer and Galactus shouldn't had been eaten/infected.  
     
    I'll admit though that Mark Miller kinda screwed it up to begin with, in a way. He didn't "flesh" out the zombie virus, it was like "they're zombies, just roll with it." But then again he probably didn't expect the zombiverse to ever be seen again. I still blame Robert Kirkman for the travesty of the zombies eating Silver Surfer and Galactus and becoming cosmic zombies, but I wonder what "Marvel Zombies" would had been like if Robert Kirkman started it from the beginning of the outbreak his own way? Or one of the other writers from Marvel Zombies 3, 4, or Marvel Zombies Return?

    @DEADPOOL: 
    it makes sense for Galactus, since he is actually some kind of energy form, but Surfer isnt (still kind of weird that theyre teeth could chew him though, he also isnt supposed to be flesh anywhere in his body). then again its an alternate reality so they can pull the " not the same as the 616 version " card and say it works. i dunno.
    true enough its hard to even rate MZ to anyone because the volumes are so different. Man-Thing wasnt infected either (mystical), and the LOM managed to make a sort of working vaccine. comics i guess, try and figure out the logic sometimes, especially between different writers and your head splode. 
    BTW: did you happen to get to read the Zombies/Apes cross-over?
