Haven't done a new ZOMBY in a while, so here's one of those.

More Funday Sunnies

(today's zomby) There's a long road ahead, Zombie...

(today's zomby) An all-out zombie versus parrot epic!

Hi, folks! Hope you enjoyed today's epic-length Zomby! adventure. While digging through the vast Kotke archives, I discovered this unused, unfinished Sunday Zomby! cartoon. I don't remember what the joke was going to be, but I thought I'd let the unsettling image speak for itself...

(today's zomby) And Anne Hathaway senses a requirement... a requirement for velocity!

Also, while you weren't paying attention, Anne Hathaway somehow became Maverick from Top Gun.

Which is Anne Hathaway and which is Tom Cruise? The world may never know.

Tom Cruise is so confused by these images. On the one hand, I'm pretty sure he'd like to screw the 1986 version of himself. On the other hand, well... you know, girls are icky and a well-documented source of cooties. Seeing what he finds attractive and what he finds repellent embodied in the same person would be traumatic for him. The experience might even take him to a scary place... a hazardous realm, if you will, or a perilous area. One might call it a sphere of jeopardy or a region of uncertainty.

If only there were some catchier way to phrase this.




Okay, that's closer to it. Let's table this for the moment and meet back here in a month.

The Funday Sunnies! Comics for the terminally depressed!

Celebrating America's richest vein of laughter and despair: Newspaper comics!

Hello, everybody!

My main man, Zomby, has been on a vision quest in Nepal these past few weeks, which explains his near-total absence from the blog. When (or if) he gets back, I'll be happy to bring you his further exploits. In the meantime, I thought I'd bring you a variety of Sunday comics, each one with the subtly dispiriting, downbeat antihumor of Zomby!

Enjoyment is not the proper reaction to these comics, per se. You really should be shaking your head and sighing deeply after each one.

Capitalist Cut-Ups

Ruprecht, The One-Armed Cat

Dennis the Fundamentalist

Only One Punchline!

Sunday Summer Safety Fun... with ZOMBY!!!

The first new ZOMBY in for, like, ever

Sorry, folks, but I've been working some extra hours lately which has left little time for blogging. But here's a new Zomby!!!, and it's a color Sunday one, too.

Enjoy or don't. Your choice. Freedom!

Today's ZOMBY raises the ugly specter of what exactly "morgue porn" might be.

ZOMBY is a hellspawn, and here's the comic to prove it.

At long last... someone is happy to see ZOMBY!!!

Experimental ZOMBY: A meditation on absence and abandonment

A suitcase on a bed. A closed door. A group of mirthless travelers standing in line. Finally, an empty airport. In today's Ziggy, these are merely the props and settings for a tired gag about airport security. But with the title character removed, this becomes a haunting meditation on absence and abandonment. Someone seems to be discarding his life and his home for unknown reasons, shedding his very existence like a snake sheds his skin. Perhaps all of these people in line are giving up their lives as well. Some catastrophe has caused them to leave behind all that they know. One is reminded of the brilliant 2000 Swedish film, Songs from the Second Floor, which you really ought to see right this minute. Perhaps the trailer will convince you. Keep in mind, the trailer is NSFW but it's Sunday so you shouldn't be at W anyway. Songs comes pretty darned close to being a zombie movie, as you'll soon see, so I hope it is covered someday on Mail Order Zombie.



And thus ends Experimental Zomby week. Join us tomorrow for "classic Zomby."

ZOMBY: Yes, it's just that easy, folks!

STARTING TOMORROW: A week-long experiment you may or may not like!

ZOMBY remembers: GOLF spelled backwards is FLOG!

ZOMBY encounters some sort of stoner aliens

This seems like the kind of thing that Comedy Central would normally be playing at 2:00 on a weekday afternoon.

So.... ZOMBY was a model at some point in his life? Apparently.

The Infamous "Zombie Vs. Duck" Scene!!!!

P.S. - If you're wondering how this is about the T-Mobile Girl, that's who they're fighting over.

Nyehhhhh... what's up, ZOMBY?
