End of an Era...

As I mentioned in SUNDAY COMICS, it was recently announced that the hit comic The Walking Dead is officially over, with the release of issue 193.

the Badass Witches of Helheim return for Vengeance: BRIDES OF HELHEIM by @CullenBunn and @Joelle_Jones via @OniPress

I never read the Oni Press action fantasy comic HELLHEIM by Cullen Bunn, Joëlle Jones and Nick Filardi, but this new spinoff/sequel BRIDES OF HELHEIM features undead warriors, weapon-toting witches and disproportionate revenge. Hellz. Yeah...

Our favorite zombie-smashing lesbian (Rylie of THE ABANDONED) returns in @RossCampbelll's new webcomic CAN'T LOOK BACK!

You pro'lly already know I'm a big fan of rising star cartoonist Ross Campbell (Glory, TMNT, Shadoweyes, Wet Moon), whose mastery of drawing lovely girls of every conceivable shape, size and color is matched only by his skill at writing them as fully-realized characters. My introduction to Ross's work came from running across the ruthless zombie invasion graphic novel The Abandoned that he put out as part of Tokyopop's awesome but ultimately doomed line of American graphic novels. I said all that to say that Ross's new webcomic Can't Look Back picks up where The Abandoned left off. Sorta...

You are ALL FIRED for not telling me about ZOMBILLENIUM!

Okay, I will stop blaming others for my shortcomings... I never heard of Zombillenium until a few minutes ago. I am so overcome by this that I can't say much, but just show you what I just saw...

PREVIEW- The Walking Dead: Michonne Special

The undisputed champeen of creator-owned cash cows in comics, The Walking Dead is dropping this little treat for all you fans of the mighty Michonne, with this fresh one-shot.

PREVIEW- Fanboys VS Zombies #6

I haven't gotten a chance to read Fanboys VS Zombies yet, but Sam Humphries is a beast and the art by Jerry Gaylord looks dope. It doesn't hurt to have covers by the likes of Khary Randolph and Felipe Smith to get people talking either...

In Stores Now- "Alpha Girl #2" art by Robert Love

The second issue of Alpha Girl (the story of a young delinquent who discovers she is the only girl alive not turned into a brainless homicidal maniac) arrived in stores yesterday. With art by GhettoManga favorite Robert Love, this book is looking good...

Ladies and gentlemen, we HAVE a winner!

PREVIEW- Z-Girl and the 4 Tigers

Just read some online preview pages for this indie comic Z-Girl and the 4 Tigers by Writer Jeff Marsick and Artist Kirk Manley. Z-girl is an unkillable bad-ass in command of a quartet self-reincarnating soldiers charged to protect the world from things that go bump in the night. Looks preeeetty dope...

Help us choose the cover to the next issue!

 

Nah, you didn't miss it... I'm still putting together the Undead Celebs issue of GhettoManga Quarterly, and I could use your help. Vote on which of these versions of Howard Russell's Thriller cover you like better...

Comicbook World #61- Millions Die from Mind-Controlling Parasites

This is not a hoax or an imaginary story! An airborne mind-controlling fungus that turns its victims into suicidal mindless zombies is responsible for multiplied millions of deaths in the Washington DC area alone, according to Mike Raupp, an entomologist at the University of Maryland.

Did you read "Zombies VS Robots: Undercity"?

Anybody out there read Zombies VS Robots: Undercity? There wasn't much fanfare when this book was coming out over the summer, but the preview pages look AWESOME...

Seeking Submissions: (Un)Dead Celebrities

For once, the rumors are true. There is definitely a short Michael Jackson comic (by that dude Howard Russell) in the next issue of GhettoManga Quarterly, which is under construction right now... I'm also looking to include fan art of other celebrities as undead creatures, so sharpen your pencils, fire up your cyntiq, and get to work...

IN STORES NOW- Queen Sonja # 17

The Villain is in the building! Doom (Thulsa, not MF or Victor Von) has returned from the dead to give everybody's favorite redheaded warrior queen a run for her money. Empowered by the evil god Set to carry out a doomsday rite a thousand years in the making, Thulsa Doom is looking to kick a sister while she's down! Get ready for some sword and sorcery in the manner of the true masters from trustworthy and hard-writing scribe Arvid Nelson (Thulsa Doom, Zero Killer, Kull, Rex Mundi). Peep the preview below...

PREVIEW- Drums #1

I don't know much about Drums,  the new horror/crime comic from Image Comics, but this looks dope, so I figured I'd share it with y'all...

the Cover that got me on board of Kirkman and Adlard's "The Walking Dead"

I am immune to peer pressure. I didn't start reading The Walking Dead even though all my friends were raving about it. I mean, an ongoing zombie comic? Yawn. But then they put a sister with a samurai sword taking her jawless pet zombies for a walk on the cover. You know what happened next...
