Once there, he both oversaw and wrote many adaptations and licensed books, including Shaun of the Dead, Land of the Dead, Transformers, Beowulf, KISS, Mars Attacks, and Clive Barker's The Great and Secret Show. Chris also co-created a number of original books, including the highly successful Zombies vs. Robots, as well as Groom Lake, The Colonized, and The Hollows. In 2011, he brought together Transformers, Star Trek, Ghostbusters, and G.I. Joe for an intercompany crossover called Infestation.
