2009 Zombie

As promised, I'm starting off the year with another zombie drawing.

Few more things to note as the year ends:

- The December Zuda contest ended and Aeons of the Dead won, congratulations to the creator, Dean Hsieh, of course. I have the same misgivings about the strip that I had back when I first reviewed it, but producing a new page every week should certainly give him plenty of opportunities to improve.

- I'm now playing with an idea that could make an interesting Zuda entry, but I have to decide if I will even have the time to make the eight pages any time soon with my pending schedule. As much as I like the idea and format, winning could be a weird work disadvantage to my plans this year.

- Despite my doodle above, my New Year wish is for no more zombie comics. Kirkman's and the ones lurching around in The Goon are enough for me.

- Fingers crossed for a Pittsburgh Super Bowl!

- If I understand my schedule, I start teaching at Durham on the 13th -- lots of stuff to prep before then.

- I finally watched my Iron Man DVD -- the best Marvel hero film ever, though Blade still hits all the right buttons for me. I'm happy Norrington is finally directing again despite the debacle that LOEG was.

-Another drawing exercise to prep for this Saturday as well as a few small assignments to wrap. Despite the increased work load, I'm going to try to keep the updates on this blog steady and try to get close to what I did this past December.
