Sorry I am all out of breath, but I have been giving myself a cardio workout battling zombies at a comic convention. I have heard people brag about the killer time they have had at comic conventions, but in FANBOYS VS ZOMBIES, this truly is a situation of kill or be killed.
FANBOYS VS ZOMBIES is brought to us by BOOM! Studios, written by Sam Humphries with art by Jerry Gaylord.
Now some zombie fans just watch the movies, but not me, I watch the movies, read the novels, and collect the comics, and I love FANBOYS VS ZOMBIES.
Sam Humphries has taken the geek mannerisms and woven them perfectly into his characters making this comic a fun read, and the art by Jerry Gaylord portrays each of the character cliche's smoothly, with good amounts of zombie gore to slip in, while the geeky main characters bumble along tryin to seem semi-cool.
Let's see the G.R.E.A.T. score break down.
Gore: well drawn, I especially like how he portrayed the zombie publicists, and D&D zombies in issue two. 9.0
Realism: the portrayals of the characters mimic fanboys in real life. 9.0
Entertainment: this comic makes me chuckle and is a fun read. 8.0
Action: massive convention floor zombie mayhem, ziplines that break, and battles with axe wielding D&D zombies. 9.5
Thrills: not easy to scare an adult with a comic book, but I am drooling like a hungry zombie in anticipation of issue three. 7.5
The total G.R.E.A.T. score is 8.6
Be sure to go to your local comic shop and add FANBOYS VS ZOMBIES to your subscriptions. You will be glad it is a part of your zombie library.
I am going to go back down to the convention floor to battle some more zombies, but before I do let me ask you this question.
Will any famous people make cameos only to be turned into zombie chow?
You will have to read FANBOYS VS ZOMBIES to find out.
Thanks for reading, and until my next post, I will be shuffling along with the lost.
