Welcome back to our weekly recap of undead news. Before we dive in, remember to enter the contests we have running this month at Zombies & Toys. We’re giving away some toys, CDs, stickers, and clothing accessories this month. You can enter them all, but can only enter each once. We have also been featuring a zombie-a-day with art provided by Jerry Fleming.
I’m fond of saying that zombies can make anything better. But exercise? Unless they add real zombies, I still think it’s going to suck.
If you are sadistic enough to take a post-apocalyptic exercise course, I suggest relaxing afterward to a nice web comic. The Zombie Hunters should be that comic. Providing us with a unique twist on the zombie genre, we follow a society living in a world where the zombie virus may lie dormant in hosts. In this story, some may be infected with a dormant strain of the virus. These carriers can pass along the virus to other survivors through their bodily fluids. If a carrier dies, they will reanimate becoming a zombie. But until that moment, they are still a part of society. Or what’s left of it.
Humanity now resides on an artificial island and home of a scientific research facility. The carriers are a part of this society but are extremely segregated. Infected are marked with arm bands and their freedoms are limited restricting them to the barracks on the island. Some of the infected enlist to become part of salvage teams who travel into the cities for supplies. Hence, The Zombie Hunters.
We also featured a full review of Capcom’s latest zombie game, Dead Rising 2. While I haven’t been able to play it myself, one of our writers had quite a bit to share. David was able to provide us with a pleasant review of the limited Zombrex edition last week. Now you can find out if the game is as good as the box it comes in.
Make sure to swing by Zombies & Toys throughout the week to catch the news that is not mentioned here. Besides, can you really wait a full week to get your fill of zombies?
