I have a shirt that says ‘I love Math’. Obviously referring to mathematics (which I loathe), but I’m going to think of it as “I love Matheson’.

God, I love this comic.

So much badassness, so little time, Oui?

I can’t wait for a new installment- but that would mean it’s getting closer to teh end of the story, and that will make me very sad. *sniffles*

You people are awesome.

Wow, in the first panel where Math is flying down the staircase chopping a zombie head off, it looks like he’s going to kick the other two zombies in the head as he flies down the staircase, if you imagine it like that it’s just so incredibly cool! I hope that that ends up being a move he uses in the movie!
Awesome page!

“Were these zombies already â€˜Zombifiedâ€™ when on these flights, or were they unfortunate souls who had been bitten, and had just not turned yet.”

Ken: I’ve explained all of this in detail many times before. Please search for those comments. Just bitten, not turned, for the most part, but it’s a very involved process, lots of things going on. Don’t want to spoil too much for the prequel graphic novel that shows every major detail of the operation.

“I think, (and again forgive me for being presumptuous) that Zombies flying planes is pretty hokey), but infected passengers who happen to disembark from said planes to infect others a continent away to be a far more realistic and more plausible explanation for how this disease could spread so quickly.”

Again, read all the comments if you want spoilers like this, but a couple points (repeating from earlier comments of mine): #1 — It’s not in any way hokey for the First Zombie to fly a plane when he used to be a vampire and has full mental capacity and retains all of his vampire powers and memories from when he was a pilot as well. #2 — There was never even a hint of a suggestion that the way the outbreak spread was from zombies flying planes. Never. The need for flight is only for the very end of the operation when the First Zombie had to fly around the world to smell out (literally) the last survivors (last 10,000 or so) and direct his troops on the ground to where they are to go kill them. His blood smelling powers are even better than Math’s.

Just my two cents here – feel free to ignore them if you like. You mentioned earlier about the Zombies, “(due to the international flights the zombies took on the first day).” Were these zombies already ‘Zombified’ when on these flights, or were they unfortunate souls who had been bitten, and had just not turned yet (a far more plausible explanation for being on an international flight).

I think, (and again forgive me for being presumptuous) that Zombies flying planes is pretty hokey), but infected passengers who happen to disembark from said planes to infect others a continent away to be a far more realistic and more plausible explanation for how this disease could spread so quickly. TFZ could still control them a continent away (or could he??) and thus a coordinated effort on behalf of the zombies could be carried out to infect all of mankind.

Interesting website for you all to check out regarding Zombie Infection (though I don’t know if it’s applicable here or not) – neat anyways.

“seeing jimmy pounce on his mother chomping down on her brains only to have her then reanimate and the two of them turn on the others.”

If you guys are actually talking about the brain itself, once the brain is damaged too much (and one bite would probably do this, I think), that zombie is dead, as in dead dead, like getting a bullet to the brain. Anyway, minor spoiler: We won’t see too much of the Jimmy/Jimmy’s mom zombie stuff, like practically none of it.

Yeah the glowing eyes would be a good idea, just some way of telling which zombies are normal zombies and which are being directed by tfz. and brellchild as for that mental image, i think that would be awesome…seeing jimmy pounce on his mother chomping down on her brains only to have her then reanimate and the two of them turn on the others.

I hadn’t thought much about the glowing eyes aspect, but that might be a good idea.

Are you going to do something like have the TFZ enhanced zombies have glowing eyes in the movie? As opposed to the ones chasing our favorite psycho with an axe over in the nearest town that is.

O wait, maybe TFZ is playing with his food over there too?

Arrrgh! I want to see this movie!!

Bad visual image of the day – Jimmy’s mom’s body twitching and then suddenly re-animating in the midst of being eaten by her own child. Talk about a visual *ewwwwww* factor for the movie.

And watch Math coldy whack them both. I doubt Murdo could bring himself to do it…
