Hmm, who is it that Math is saying will stop them? And hell, it’s 4 thousand against thirty-one. Fifty-one when including the Vamps, so I’d say putting anyone who reads this there with the weapon of our choice would probably add a 5 per person for the upcoming battle. Also, has anyone noticed that Math said a while ago that April would save them?? He’s pretty fickle about their saviour, isn’t he?
graves .. nice and shallow… yep that truck is pointing south if the sun is west…so if mac finds … among other things …candy… and flowers .. and liquor perhaps …it is time to party like tomorrow (or at least later tonight) you’ll be a zombie…. i wonder how well their life saving attempts for Mustache man went
I’ve kept up with this comic from the beginning. It’s wonderful work. I have a question. In the second last panel, it says, “Nothing can stop them except him.” Who the heck is him? The vampire scientist guy? The zombie leader? Mac? I tried to figure it out, but I can’t be 100% sure. Thanks!
Mustache Man must still be alive because there are only three graves or they just through his body with the rest of the rotting zombies i shure hope that is the case or they just left him there because they were to lazy to move his fat body
Well, is in in the U.S. grain basket, right? I don’t think there are many nonwhite folks in like, North Dakota. I like the subtle Jewish military burial style cross.
So what would be even more odd is if there was a non-white person there. We also haven’t seen all of the survivors up close yet. And the reason the story is set there is because that’s where the school building that my family owns is, where the movie would be shot if I made it myself.
“Hmm, who is it that Math is saying will stop them? Also, has anyone noticed that Math said a while ago that April would save them?? He’s pretty fickle about their saviour, isn’t he?”
SPOILERS BELOW THIS POINT
He’s not, no. He’s referring to The First Zombie, who controls all the other zombies with his mind, and Math thinks April is TFZ’s granddaughter and that she’s the only one who might be able to get TFZ to change his mind and/or get close enough to kill him, since she’s the only living blood relative of TFZ, which, in Math’s mind, is clearly why TFZ has kept this town alive so long, only survivors in America. So if the only one who could stop all the zombies is him, The First Zombie, and if April is the only one who could stop him, then she’s the one who would be saving them. She can’t stop all the zombies, but she’d be saving the humans (and vampires) by giving them a fighting chance by stopping TFZ. And please keep in mind that all of this WILL BE EXPLAINED LATER IN THE COMIC, which is why this is called a SPOILER and not just EXTRA BONUS INFO.
That Wiki article mentions that Keenspot’s corporate headquarters are in an abandoned school in Cresbard. Were you planning on using that as the set for the movie?
Correct — have said this many many times, like in my most recent comment here —
“And the reason the story is set there is because that’s where the school building that my family owns is, where the movie would be shot if I made it myself.”
Hmmm. Farming country like this means there are pickup trucks all over the place. Farms also mean generally flat territory, or at least terrain trucks can get around in.
If they really wanted to be desperate they could pack everyone into the vehicles and try to dodge the oncoming horde for a few hours.
Pointless effort of course, they wouldn’t add more than a few hours at best assuming TFZ really is actively homing the horde in on the humans. But you just *know* somebody is going to suggest it since they also have a pretty darn good zombie detector (or two).
You know everyone keeps asking about Mac and who is “the one” TFZ or April and you answered that but what im Curious about is Murdo and Val. Murdo kinda had an angry look in his eye but who is he mad at Val, himself, or the zombies (yes of course he is mad at the zombies) but what is he going to ask her to do? for her to die? to kill him? or Make him a vampire so he can be a zombie killing machine?
HAH! i had a feeling ^_^ thanks bobby. Sorry by the way i should have read the comments from that strip before asking it on this one. Love the Comic and how we can talk with the author and how you respond ^_^
19-21 adults attending the funeral, not counting Math, and it’s an estimate since some of the things that look like heads could be elbows.
‘Twas said that it takes 12 or 24 (can’t remember which) hours to be a zombie, so at the least Mustache Man is an hour or two away from it, so he wouldn’t have been buried yet, right? waitasec- is the sun rising or setting? … meh, oh well.
great page as usual, guys. 🙂
“I wonder if April wants to shoot baskets with decapitated zombie heads aswell?”
Oh man, that was like my favorite page EVER. Just completely awesome for unexplainable reasons! XD (on a sidenote, now I totally wanna buy a bunch of fake zombie heads and shoot hoops with them on the driveway on halloween =P )
September 19th, 2007 at 12:07 am

Woohoo

Yayyy! A comic day after day =D Im eager to check out your update tomorrow (hopefully ;P )
September 19th, 2007 at 12:39 am
And so it ends. Unless they turn everybody into vampires and pwn it up!
September 19th, 2007 at 1:41 am
ohh, I just love that… I can imagine that doomsday voice of him impassionately saying ‘anything you want.’
Swoons. It just keeps getting better and better bobby! Kudo’s to the both of you.
Poor April though. I think his reply just gave her a pause…
September 19th, 2007 at 3:34 am
Just give me a chainsaw and I’ll least gone down with a fight. By the way Bobby are Black / Mixed Race people hard to draw for Owen?
Just seems odd everyone left is White, not a complaint, more of a wonder.
September 19th, 2007 at 3:43 am

“Anything you want”, eh?
…’nuff said. I don’t need to elaborate. In fact, this entire post is only pointing out the obvious. ^_^;
September 19th, 2007 at 7:25 am

September 19th, 2007 at 8:36 am

September 19th, 2007 at 11:31 am

“Just seems odd everyone left is White, not a complaint, more of a wonder.”
The story is set in Cresbard, South Dakota, which, according to census figures, is 98.6% white —
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cresbard,_South_Dakota
So what would be even more odd is if there was a non-white person there. We also haven’t seen all of the survivors up close yet. And the reason the story is set there is because that’s where the school building that my family owns is, where the movie would be shot if I made it myself.

You’ll see him again very soon.
September 19th, 2007 at 2:46 pm
@Mewt: LOL!
@Bobby: Are you sure he’s not referring to Chuck Norris? XD
JK! JK!
September 19th, 2007 at 8:34 pm

This is one of the best stories I have read in a long time! Good work and keep it coming.
September 20th, 2007 at 7:48 am
Sounds like April and Murdo are both going to get a little vampire nookie before the story is done.
September 20th, 2007 at 8:53 am
You know everyone keeps asking about Mac and who is “the one” TFZ or April and you answered that but what im Curious about is Murdo and Val.

HHHMMmmm…….
I wonder did Mac went to get a mini gun or snickers bar?
September 20th, 2007 at 12:26 pm
oo yeah, payne is coming with the plane!
September 20th, 2007 at 12:30 pm
Great Series!
Very exciting.
I’m betting he’s going back for candy bars
September 20th, 2007 at 12:33 pm
Awesome comic, thanks!
September 20th, 2007 at 2:11 pm
“Sounds like April and Murdo are both going to get a little vampire nookie before the story is done.
Very minor spoiler: No, neither of them are.
Michael: I’ve also answered that many times in past comments. LARGER SPOILER: He’s asking her to turn him into a vampire.

Setting.
September 20th, 2007 at 8:31 pm
in the second panel is that a rain drop or is he just sniffing the air for the zombies?
September 20th, 2007 at 8:34 pm
No rain drops, I don’t think.
