Zombie detective?
Doesn't this look awesome?
Drawn by our old buddy Mike Allred, of course it does!
Here's how the Vertigo Web site describes it:
Gwen Dylan is a gravedigger in an eco-friendly cemetery…and a zombie detective. Once a month, she has to eat a human brain – both to keep from going all "Night of the Living Dead," and to keep her own memories intact. As a result, Gwen's mind is crowded with the dead person's thoughts. And lately, she feels compelled to fulfill their final requests. Torn between a mysterious mummy and a dashing young monster-hunter, Gwen is set for adventures beyond imagination! A were-terrier, a swinging '60s ghost and a pack of paintball blasting vampires complete the cast of I, ZOMBIE.
The writer, Chris Roberson just finished a "Fables" tie in miniseries called, "Cinderella: From Fabletown with Love," which was very, very entertaining. I'd recommend that, too.
Pair him with one of the greatest comics artists of this generation, Mike Allred, and it just has to be good.
Trust these creators. Let them take you on a journey. You won't regret it.

I am waiting for your report on the Browns picks in the draft.
I liked the Where's George thing. It seems if every dollar (and transaction were tracked (by a UPC code or something) business, consumer, and government decisions might have some greater measure of accuracy and openess.
Vampires are just zombies.
Eat the flesh, drink the blood (Hey, just like Church)
