It’s criminal that I haven’t drawn George Romero as a zombie yet. Had to rectify that…. and it’s fun to do something mildly serious now and again. So a portrait of him both before and after zombification seemed like a fun idea.
I watched a awesome documentary about zombies the other day. Made me appreciate how much we all owe Uncle George. I say that with the full knowledge that I lambasted his latest movie “Survival of the Dead” (He may punch me one day for that)
Well I can’t take that back, it really was a horrible movie. I can however say that I recently watched “Land of the Dead” again. The first time I saw it, I didn’t care for it, but seeing it again I can truthfully say I liked it. It wasn’t scary, you feel more sorry for the zombies than afraid of them. But on a second viewing I was entertained and would recommend it.
I’ll have to review that.
I…I….I cant tell the difference.
Does this mean that George is already a zombie? Maybe the father of zombies, like a more decayed zombie Dracula?
I need to do some follow up illustrations showing the progression of decay.
Wow, that sounds so creepily morbid when I say that out loud…. ow well, go with your strengths, I say.
Poor George. He finally became the thing he feared the most.

Old.
That’s also the thing I fear…. I’m thirty-six and my nine year old son makes me feel like a damned ancient.
You know your getting old when you become irrationally concerned about how many chest hairs turn white.
(I know, too much information) I feel no shame
Easy solution there mate, get your chest shaved. Out of sight, out of mind.
I feel ya Carter, I feel ya. I’m thirty-seven and have a thirteen year old daughter and a nine year old son who both reminded my wife and I that we’re REALLY OLD the other day (separately and independent of each other on top of it all).
The OTHER 95% of the time, they’re absolutely great, so long as they realize I keep them around so that I can get away from the zombies, MWAHAHA. Damn, did I say that out loud, lol.
Ten minutes ago my six year old daughter pats my belly and says “You’re fat, Daddy, you need to go running.”
Super, now I’m old and fat. Kids are great for your self esteem.
He look way sober as a zombie!
Awesome.
I play Zombie Pets on FB. In it the most expensive pet is Grandpa George. He is of course a zombie version of George Romero.
You can have his as a pet!? That is awesome! How about a plushy? I’d pay for that.
This is really cool.
Thanks, I appreciate that.
To be honest, I couldn’t think of much else to say. I’m being serious, the first thing that went through my mind after I saw this was “$#*%, I don’t know what to say!”
