October 28, 2009: Newest Weapon in your Zombie Fighting Arsenal
Max Brooks hit a cultural nerve center with The Zombie Survival Guide, the undead tongue-in-cheek . . . well, it's a guide to surviving zombie outbreaks. His follow-up, World War Z, was equally fantastic.
Lately, he's been on a bit of "cash in" streak, with zombie-themed flashcards and notebooks. Not that I mind an author milking a cash cow, but I prefer something with a bit more substance.
And it looks like he's delivered, this time in graphic novel format. The Zombie Survival Guide: Recorded Attacks is an illustrated tale of historical warfare between the living and the undead. Just what I needed for the long flight to Essen!

Warehouse 23 News: e23: Deals So Good, They're Scary!
Oooga booga booga! Hah! Got ya! We did get you, right? Aw, not even a little? Not even a teensy, tiny, itty, bitty, little bit? Okay. How 'bout now? Still . . . nothing? Okay, fine, forget it. Just have some horror bundles from Tabletop Adventures instead. They've put together fantasy, modern, and future bundles, so you can scare yourself in any setting. Except this one in front of your computer. Obviously, it needs work.
