Murdertone is a town with a problem. They’re not overly concerned with the zombie apocalypse or the state of the economy. They worry about the important things like popularity

First preview of AMC’s The Walking Dead Season 3. Finally we’re away from the farm and headed for the prison. Judging by the state of the characters in this clip you can tell things will be bloody and there will be very little time to shower when facing relentless hordes of the undead.
Season 3 of The Walking Dead promises to be pretty dark, and it looks like The Governor is confirmed to be in this season. Sooooo that’s positive. Also is anyone else weirded out when they hear Rick Grimes with a British Accent. Not that British guys can’t be tough (James Bond), but it’s not what I expect. Weird, it’s like having Harry Potter fight zombies.
Holy crap I would love to have a movie with Harry Potter fighting the zombie apocalypse. Get on that AMC!
Anyway, enough of that, lets get to the preview of AMC’s “The Walking Dead Season 3″
More Daily Zombie Drawings from yours truly. These three zombie drawings are again part of my project to start each day with a warm up drawing for the comic strip.
The stack of zombie drawings I’ve got on hand is starting to actually add up to something. I’ve thought about what to do with them, I think I’ll take these to cons with me and see if there’s any interest in purchasing them at my table. I’ve seen other artists doing things like that so that makes me feel slightly less mercenary about that
These are again done using prismacolor pencils on toned paper. I got myself a new white marker from the craft store that puts down a flood of white. I’d be happy about that except the solvent for the color gives me a bit of a headache.
Periodically I like to draw an attractive zombie. That generally means zombie cleavage, which of course I’m a huge fan of. Sure I take a certain amount of heat from friends and family for drawing zombies this way, but come on!… If Stephanie Myer can write about vampires that glitter in the sun instead of frying like a marshmallow I should be able to draw zombies that are kinda hot.
This is a self portrait of me as a zombie. Note the extremely happy face. That’s because being a zombie is possibly going to be awesome! I like to think positive. Most people focus on surviving the zombie apocalypse. I don’t really understand that. Chances are you’re gonna die. Lets focus on your new life as one of the relentless dead forever hungering for the flesh of the living. Sound good! I thought so.
This is a fun old man zombie I drew and for no reason at all I stuck mushrooms growing out of his head. It’s that little bit of disgusting attention to detail that makes a good zombie drawing. Just my opinion though.
Spoiler: a police procedural post zombpocalypse zombie film

Spoiler is a short zombie film that is more than worth your time to watch. This short zombie film was simply amazing, original, and incredibly gut wrenching.
In an amazingly short time the film makers show some of the ways people have had to adapt to the horrible reality of a zombie plague. This was really well done and doesn’t follow the tired conventions of your standard zombie apocalypse movie. This was less about the horror of the zombie plague and more about the tragedy of the situation.
Incredibly well acted and moody, this short zombie film is really sticking with me. This zombie film is well worth your precious eyeball time.
My Daily Zombie Drawing project continues. I’ve been drawing these zombies and posting them up on Twitter and Facebook. If you’d like to keep seeing them feel free to subscribe to me.
My goal for these drawings is speed, If I’m going to get this zombie comic up to five updates a week I’ve got to draw faster… Much faster. So none of these drawings are allowed to be over ten minutes long. It’s good practice for cons as well. When I went to Horrorcon I ended up drawing from the moment I got there to the moment I went to sleep that night. That’s awesome, but I’m hoping for the next convention to be able to draw fast enough that I’ll be able to lift my head up occasionally.
These zombie drawings are done on toned paper with Prismacolor pencil and highlighted with a white marker and a white gel pen. Since for the most part the comic is pretty silly it’s nice to draw something with teeth (That’s a pun kids).
Also on a side note, if you subscribe to me on Facebook and Twitter I promise to give you a semi-creepy backrub (Note: Promise will not be honored).
Free Comic Book Day: The Results
I just got back from “Free Comic Book Day” at NightFlight Comics. Absolutely the best time was had. I ordered fifty books for the event and they are gone. Now I need to order more and that is awesome. (I use the word “Awesome” a lot)
I cannot thank the staff at Night Flight Comics enough. They are some of the coolest people I have ever met and were incredibly nice to me there for the event. If you are in the Salt Lake City area you owe it to yourself to stop by and check them out.
This was my table for the Free Comic Book day. Notice the massive mug of Mt. Dew. I don’t do anything without life threatening amounts of caffeine in my bloodstream. I was selling my book and doing free sketches for anyone who wanted one.
I did so many sketches that even my incredibly muscular and manly arm started to wear out.
Here’s me with the Utah Jazz Bear. He stopped by, shot us all with silly string, and posed for pictures. I was pretty happy with that. I actually got a chance to draw the Jazz Bear as a zombie bear for the event. Pretty cool
Forty-seven nuns and a very confused midget were killed by that silly string…. Okay… I could have made that last part up.
