273 – Simon Garth, The Zombie

Monday, October 31st, 2011

Two birds, one stone. I’m adding another Marvel character to the blog, and celebrating Halloween. I don’t know a ton about Simon Garth, The Zombie outside of the 4-issue Kyle Hotz book I read, which is apparently different from the 70s Black and White Magazine character. From what I can gather, he’s a voodoo based zombie, controlled by an amulet to do evil, but retained his humanity somewhat, and always struggles to do good.

Anyhoo, zombies are kinda played out, but I will always have a soft spot for a good zombie story.

Happy Halloween!

A parody of the old Hostess superhero ads. I miss this element in comics. Occasionally you see ads featuring superheroes, but

A) they’re usually pandering, patronizing PSAs like “Jimmy, you shouldn’t smoke!” “Drugs are whack, yo!” or “Stop fisting your sister!”

2) they’re always poorly drawn and written. Sure the hostess ads ain’t high art, but they’re so fucking insane, that they’re amazing. And usually drawn by what appeared to be staff artists, who, y’know, had talent and skill. Nowadays, the “Wolverine in ‘Mommy Cries When You Masturbate’” PSA would be drawn by some retarded, handless midget found routing through Marvel’s dumpster and loved Dan Fraga circa 1992. Or, y’know, someone like me.

Gutter Trash Episode 33: Apocalypse Now is available when? Now.

Gotta get this one done early, or it won’t get done today. I drew this one a while ago. Kind of experimental. I had just bought a big-ass funky marker, and just wanted to do something huge, crazy and sloppy with it. This was the result.

Just woke up. Nothing new to gripe about.
