Visit Me at Pittsburgh Comic Con!

September 25th, 2014 | Posted in News

The comic is called “Z-People”, and it’s a humorous zombie story written and published by television comedy writer Darin Henry. Here’s the official copy from their Facebook page: Sitcomics is a comic book publishing company started by Darin Henry, a… READ MORE
