All you had to do was stay off his radar, but noooo…” “Ah, you mean like how you made frenemies with the Permuted Press people and tried to turn Seattle into zombietown?” “Touché, my little friend. And all YOU did was zombify the mailman to make a new undead buddy. It wasn’t your fault he ran away and starting eating all the … [Read more...]

I bet the picture on this thing is pretty darn…” “Wait, don’t turn that on!” “Ummm, why is there a giant arm reaching out of the TV trying to strangle Johnny?” “Oh, just the usual – we were complaining about how expensive it would be to get cable installed through the graveyard, and Squee called up Doctor Muerto. The next thing you know, Squee comes back with a “free TV” spell that imbecile gave him…and … [Read more...]

I meant to spring it on Doc Muerto the next time he came to visit Squee, but in my zeal I ended up getting myself stuck. Johnny, don’t just stand there gawking, help me pry this thing off!” “Waitaminute! Johnny, don’t put your head in…” >SNAP< “Arrrrrgh!” “Ha! Don’t be such a little whiner, Johnny!

Those of us with a love for zombie lore have come across the acronym FUBAR on multiple occasions…and know how appropriate it is when dealing with a zompocalyptic scenario. (For those of you NOT in the know and coming up with options like Funky Undead Bastards Are Rising – just Google it already). To have the living dead popping up in the middle of World War II – well, that’s a FUBAR situation if I’ve ever heard of one! And that’s just what Jeff McComsey had in mind when he assembled a roster of some of the finest indie comic talent in the business for … [Read more...]

He’s playing cards with the Krampus, so I’m really in no hurry to get inside!” “Okay, I’ll bite…what the frick is a Krampus?” “He’s that big, hairy dude that works with Santa - the one that eats kids if they’ve been bad!” “C’mon, we’ll be fine! I’m sure he’s off duty right now…” >Creeeeeak< “Oh, there you are … [Read more...]

Oh god…he made it look like I’m dancing with that Bieber kid!” “Ummm, it looks like Doctor Muerto put that up on the Youtubes.” “I can see THAT! What I mean is, how did he get this footage? The only time I dance like that is around here.” “Oh, well…when Doc Muerto comes over for visits, sometimes he likes to watch our home movies.

Dear Scabby: Is it true that Roman Dirge’s Lenore is going to be late again? I’m jonesing for some undead cuteness…and I hear that this time he’s late ‘cause he burned off his pecker trying to have sex with a bowl of hot grease?! Say it ain’t so… Impatient from Idaho.

Unfortunately, Doctor Curdle and Squee have been detained in an undisclosed military base to review some video footage of their recent “practical jokes” at ZomBcon. Letters from the Dear Scabby mailbag will be taking the place of their intros until they return… Dear Scabby: My family can’t afford insurance, so when my son had a cut on his arm that wouldn’t heal, my cousin recommended a local herbalist. He was very kind and put on a poultice that completely closed the wound in two days. But now my boy…has been laying eggs. And that’s not the most … [Read more...]
