FIRST BACK NEXT
This was a fun installment to work on, both the writing and
the art. The location offered so many funny tangents. I like to start the first panel with a large establishing shot. In this case, the color rendering looked so good, I erased all my line work. This current series of
strips begins to open up Marge’s back-story a bit and explain why she doesn’t quite act
like your typical mindless, shambling, inarticulate zombie. We will even touch
on her “mission” coming back to the land of the living.
And who’s this smart-mouth kid with the
zombie fixation? It’s none other than Skip Wingus! That’s cute little Skip
peddling his papers on the cover of Twelve-Way with Cheese at the left of this
column. He’s grown into a pasty, sullen, emo tween who listens to The Cure and
reads too much of The Walking Dead. And is he ever happy to make the acquaintance of a real zombie! But
how will Marge take to having an actual fan? Stop by in two weeks to see. As usual, to read all the strips, go to the archive in the right column.
First time seeing this comic series, I beleive, and I am very impressed. The artwork just draws me in and the comic was hilarious to boot! Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind words, George. Glad you're enjoying the strip. It only gets stranger from here on out.
