I’m in San Diego setting up for Comic Con, which starts TONIGHT! I have no time or scanners available to do a SotW.

Z-People is a humorous story about zombies and a group of survivors trying to figure out what to do. I’m inking the last few pages right now and the comic will be out sometime soon. READ MORE
