Hope you're not sick of zombies yet, because The CW is about to throw its hat into that ring, as the network behind Arrow has ordered a pilot for an adaptation of the DC Comics/Vertigo comic book, iZombie

DC Comics' iZombie.

Entertainment Weekly provides the following synopsis for the uninitiated: "A med student-turned-zombie takes a job in the coroner’s office to gain access to the brains she must reluctantly eat to maintain her humanity, but with each brain she consumes, she inherits the corpse’s memories. With the help of her medical examiner boss and a police detective, she solves homicide cases in order to quiet the disturbing voices in her head."The project comes from Veronica Mars creator Rob Thomas and another Mars writer/producer, Diane Ruggiero.iZombie marks the second DC Comics pilot the CW have ordered recently, following The Flash. In addition, the network is also developing a potential series based on DC's Hourman.In addition to the iZombie pickup, CW now has a working title for its Supernatural spinoff -- Supernatural: Tribes. Tribes will not be shot as its own pilot, but rather as a backdoor pilot episode of Supernatural, airing later this season.
