Writer: Brian Lynch
Artist: Dave Crosland

Synopsis: College can be tough. Making new friends, falling in love, being one of the few people left on Earth who isn’t a bloodthirsty zombieŠ welcome to the world of Everybody’s Dead! Ten friends remain the only ones on campus who have survived an overnight apocalypse. Now they must fend off legions of the undead and restart civilization in their own image! (Civilization, of course, is doomed.) From Brian Lynch, writer on the blockbuster hit Angel: After the Fall, and artist Dave Crosland, from the critically acclaimed Scarface: Scarred for Life!

Opinion: I’ve got three words for this book: another zombie comic?

Jeebus this bandwagon’s getting mighty full lately. Don’t get me wrong, I love them cute, fuzzy little brain-eaters as much as the next guy but come on! Can’t we get a new fad already?

That said - Everybody’s Dead is refreshing. It takes a stale concept and polarizes the somber, tragic tone of titles like The Walking Dead and replaces it eloquently with the flavor of awkward college experiences and the interpersonal relationships all while maintaining a nice mixture of 3 dimensionality in the characters.

Read my review after the jump.
