“The Walking Dead” – Graphic Novel

deadaerisJuly 25, 2011

Almost a year ago I read “The Walking Dead: Compendium 1” which was books 1-48).  I read it in anticipation of the beginning of the AMC show of the same name.  Incidentally, “The Walking Dead” was also the first graphic novel series […]

Zombie Pulp (fiction – not puree)

deadaerisJune 10, 2011

It seems to me that while teachers may not garner the respect they deserve in every arena in life, they are standouts in the zombie genre. Bowie Ibarra gives us yet another tale of an educator surviving the apocalypse long enough to […]

Sometimes a poor review is better than a good one!

deadaerisJune 10, 2011

A little while ago I was reading an e-mail from Severed Press (I get them from time to time), and I noticed an author had started a conversation about a poor review he had received for his book “White Flag of the […]

Candy-munching zombie hordes…of women.

deadaerisFebruary 13, 2011

Lisa Cach is the final author in the book “My Zombie Valentine”, and her story “Every Part of You” was certainly worth waiting for.  I think, without stretching too far, that this is one of the oddest zombie tales I have ever […]

The third tale in “My Zombie Valentine” is from Marianne Mancusi.  Titled, “Zombiewood Confidential”, it tells the story of a production crew for Romeo George’s next big zombie film.  (Yes – that’s right.  Not George Romero, but Romeo George – very nice […]

“Gentlemen Prefer Voodoo” (written by Angie Fox) is the second novella in the paranormal romance book “My Zombie Valentine”, which I promised to read before Valentine’s Day.  (I just finished today and now I’m getting around to posting…)  In any event, the […]

When good dead go bad…

deadaerisFebruary 11, 2011

One of my favorite books by Stephen King is {and most likely always will be} “Pet Sematary”.  I believe this was the first zombie-themed book I ever read, and I read it somewhere around my 7th or 8th grade year. This book […]

All the zombie fragging you can handle…and a little you can’t.

deadaerisFebruary 5, 2011

“Left 4 Dead 2” follows four different survivors through a series of zombie infested maps. The game was an overall improvement from Left 4 Dead (which in and of itself was still an awesome game!)  There are numerous notable changes for the […]

Don’t take that call !

deadaerisFebruary 2, 2011

I would like to preface the following review saying that when I grew up I lived on a steady diet of Stephen King books and hot dogs, washed down with Kool-Aid.  From the time I entered middle school until I graduated from […]

A knockout book from a new author…

deadaerisJanuary 27, 2011

Ben Tripp’s “Rise Again” is a relatively recent addition to the annals of gore-encrusted zombie literature.  Before I get into the review, I have a terrible thing to admit.  Its absolutely unforgivable, but its true.  I wasn’t even aware of the existence […]
