There was a section about this in the _Transmetropolitan_ comic/graphic novel, if my memory is correct.

Lady gets reanimated in some sort of assembly-line mass process, gets a few days in a shelter, then gets kicked out into society at large. She then basically has some sort of culture shock and ends up homeless again.

One of the reasons may be that the future in transmetropolitan is a very dystopian one. They already expected their close ones to be long dead, but they didn't expect the world to be much worse and bizarre-looking.
