Roman Thug Life
August 31st, 2008 | Author: Craig
Evan Bryce is an artist to keep an eye on. His blog should be a regular rest area on your internet travels. Evan’s new sketchbook, Roman Thug Life is now available. It contains 54 pages of Evan’s work. I’m looking forward to getting a copy. Check it out and you might be too!
Zodiac Killer Unmasked?
August 30th, 2008 | Author: Craig
If Dennis Kaufman is right, his stepfather was the infamous Zodiac Killer. Kaufman has turned over evidence including handwriting samples, a [potentially blood] stained knife, rolls of undeveloped film, and DNA from his step-father. If Kaufman is correct and his step-father turns out to be the Zodiac, then it may also be true that his mother was one of potentially many victims that were never attributed to the Zodiac. You can read the full story HERE.

US Transporter 3 Better
August 30th, 2008 | Author: Craig
Ten days ago I was pretty sure that I would like the American Transporter 3 poster better than this French one. Now thanks to IMPAwards.com, I’m sure of it.
1-Hit-1Ders
August 29th, 2008 | Author: Craig
I’m on a bit of a roll with a perfect score today. I thought that this quiz of One-Hit-One-Ders was the easiest test yet; which is a bit surprising considering I’m much more into movies than music.
One Shot the One Shot
August 28th, 2008 | Author: Craig
It’s hard to believe it’s been a little over three years since my last post about Jason Pearson’s Body Bags. I guess if Jason did more issues, I’d talk about them more often. At any rate, he’s got a Body Bags one shot aptly titled One Shot coming soon. CBR.com has a preview [not suitable for all ages due to language and comic book violence] that you can see by clicking HERE [if this sort of thing is suitable for you].

A Scary Start

Ah, finally success. A perfect score in the Scary Beginnings quiz.
5 Years of Walking Dead
August 28th, 2008 | Author: Craig
It’s really hard to believe that The Walking Dead has been around for five years. But it has. And from the very first issue The Walking Dead been one of the best monthly comics published. Longtime ZONErs know that I’ve been singing it’s praises for years.
In October, Image is coming out with the Volume 4 hard cover Walking Dead [which collects issues 37 - 48 of the series] as well as The Walking Dead: The Covers hard cover [which collects the first 50 covers, as well as the various collected edition covers plus sketch book material and commentary].
The Walking Dead is one of the few comics that I like enough to purchase monthly and then again when it comes out in the collected hard cover. The stories are so good that I don’t want to wait a year to find out what happens and the price on the hard covers [1, 2, 3] is so inexpensive that trading in my single issues more than pays for the collections!
