i’m pleased that this story is continuing to develop in interesting ways. like any good “zombie” story, it acknowledges that yeah, zombies are bad, but once you have zombies, you have a whole host of other social problems that ripple out from that situation. you have people who want to die but can’t, you have religious zealots popping up, you have ethical questions around town quarantine and enforced containment of the affected individuals, you have complications in legal and law enforcement areas, you have people trying to come in, people trying to break out, showboats and protesters and vigilantes and demonologists and cranky old preppers.

you know how it goes—mo’ zombies, mo’ problems

and that’s not even counting

in this volume, characters will die, and some might not even come back. old scores will be settled, plots will be hatched; there will be unexpected alliances, fantastic speeches, heroism and duplicity and a farting dog.

‘cuz you’ll need a laugh in all of this.

once again, the artwork is spectacular and much better than my rinky dink little camera can capture.

this feels gauche, but when i announced i was starting a blog, everyone assured me this is a thing that is done. i’m not on facebook, i’ve never had a cellphone or listened to a podcast; so many common experiences of modern life are foreign to me, but i’m certainly struggling financially, so if this is how the world works now, i’d be foolish to pass it up. any support will be received with equal parts gratitude and bewilderment.
