FANBOYS VS ZOMBIES #1 |
BOOM ENTERTAINMENT
(W) Sam Humphries (A) Jerry Gaylord (CA) Humberto Ramos & Various
SPECIAL $1 DEBUT ISSUE! NEW ONGOING SERIES!
One is a decrepit mob of gurgling, ravenous fiends...and the other is a zombie
outbreak. When there is no more room in Hell, the undead shall take over
Comic-Con! A crew of feuding best friends find themselves trapped inside
America's largest comic convention transformed into a seething cauldron of
zombies. Is a horde of starving brain-eaters any match against reflexes
battle-hardened by video games, nerves tested by horror flicks, and courage
crystallized by comic books? Find out as an unlikely band of nerds use their
genre savvy to survive in Fanboys vs. Zombies! Written by indie sensation Sam
Humphries (Our Love is Real) with art by hot new talent Jerry Gaylord! |
