Rodney the Zombie. Issue #2. Set #6. (Final)
Wow! It's been over two months since I have blogged, hmmmm, I need to be a lot better at this if I want to continue. I've been taking a break but I've also been a little burnt out on comic projects due to the fact that I rushed to get YMOL #1 finished and ready to be published in a short window of time. I was a little worn out, to say the least.
One day I realized that I stopped blogging (yet again) in the middle of Rodney the Zombie. I haven't worked on Rodney in a while and want to move on with the new issue so in order to avoid any other snafus with me posting and just to be done with this I am publishing the rest of the story in one post so that it is finished.
There will be one more post about Rodney the Zombie in which I publish the cover designs for issue #2 and have a special announcement, so stay tuned!
I do have one announcement though, you can now subscribe to Dementia Comics and receive notifications via e-mail whenever I have a new post. It's a faster, easier, and more efficient way to find out when there is something new on the blog. You can find this new feature on the right hand side of the screen.
I hope that you continue to enjoy!

If you have forgotten what has happened previously in the story (sorry, my fault) Rodney was woken up by his daily newspaper hitting the door, and while eating breakfast he looks at the 'Help Wanted' advertisements bypassing the headlines of 'Murder' and 'Missing'. His interest is peaked by a Veterinary Clinic advert. and heads out to apply.
The story takes a dark twist when a mysterious bush begins to follow Rodney, and when he gets on the bus there is another mysterious figure hiding behind a newspaper watching him intently. Rodney arrives at the Animal Hospital, but finds out that he won't get the job advertised.
Just when Rodney gives up hope he finds out that there is another job that he is qualified for, unfortunately it's a kennel cleaner but he needs a job so of course he accepted it. He begins his tasks, and he picks a seemingly nice Bulldog to play with. Now on with Rodney the Zombie...
The last page is my absolute favorite!!! Every time I read it I start laughing.
With this issue I wanted to experiment with many things and that's why there is a noticeable change in this last half of the story. I can definitely say that with issue #3 every thing is improved; from the art to the plot of the story Rodney the Zombie #3 is greatly better than these first two issues.
Enjoy, and have a great day!!!

Rodney the Zombie. Issue #2. Set #5.
Hello everyone! Here we are with another long awaited installment of Rodney the Zombie, Issue #2 (Caretaker for a Day).
Sorry for another long delay; this has been an extremely crazy month. Along with the tornado that destroyed my hometown, my father also passed away (due to medical problems that weren't associated with the tornado). I spent two weeks back home for the funeral and helping my mom get some things in order. Since everything that happened was back in Missouri I took a leave of absence from work to go home. That threw our finances out the window, and for the past month and still now we are trying to catch everything up. Needless to say I haven't had much time to blog, or even work on any art.
Things are getting back to normal though, and hopefully I can get back into the swing of creating comics and blogs!

More of the Joplin Missouri Tornado, May 22, 2011.
Here is a picture of the tornado that hit Joplin MO, and a couple pictures of the Wal-Mart that I used to work at (that's all that's left is a couple shelves of the pet department).
Joplin Missouri Tornado, May 22, 2011
Dear Readers:
Please keep the town of Joplin Missouri in your thoughts, and send good vibes their way.
Yesterday, the town I grew-up in, went to school in, and lived in was destroyed by a F4/F5 tornado. Here is an amazing video of the actual tornado forming:
I was born in Joplin Missouri in 1987, but I originally lived in Carthage, Missouri which is about twelve miles away Joplin, so whenever my family would go out and do something Joplin is where we would go. I grew-up going to the stores, movie theatre, and parks.
I graduated from high school and attended Missouri Southern State University, in Joplin MO and lived in the dorms for three years of that time.
I met Todd in Joplin, and moved into his apartment with him in 2009, and the following autumn we moved into a house, our very own house!
Three months ago we moved to Atlanta and things are going very well, and only getting better.
Yesterday, I had the day off, so we planned a pool party and barbecue with our good friend Kristi. We spent the afternoon and evening swimming, cooking, playing games, and having a blast. When we got home last night though we found out what had happened to my old home. It was unbelievable, Joplin was destroyed and flattened, its a surreal thought. The morning when I left Joplin, everything was the same as it always was; quiet, cool, just the same as I remember it, but now most of the town I knew is gone.
Thankfully I live in Atlanta, because I would have been right in the path of the tornado. I lived a block away from Rangeline (a road that was destroyed in the storm) in a tiny house that would have been blown over like a house of sticks and worked at the Rangeline Wal-Mart (only the front facade is left, the area where I work is ruined). The apartment that Todd and I first lived in together was also completely destroyed.
I would have been at work when the tornado hit, it is a shocking realization that I would have been there if I was still in Joplin, and I might have survived or I might have died. As of now the death toll is as high as 90...
I wish I could be there to help but everyone back home is in my thoughts, and thankfully everyone Todd and I know is safe and accounted for.
Most sincerely,
W.B. Fair

Sorry for the delay everyone, life has been good but a little crazy. I have been working and sleeping mostly, but I have had a little time to do other stuff. For the past week I have been devoting my free time to working hard on getting my store up and running and all the kinks out of the system. I have finished page two on my new project, and moving on to page three. Hopefully I can find a happy medium for working on everything equally so that I don't fall behind on anything again! Blogging took a backseat, and so did comic reading...I haven't even been able to enjoy the spoils of Free Comic Book Day...this evening though I am going to take some time to relax and read!
You do the same! Enjoy some great comics!

May is: Zombie Appreciation Month!
May is officially the greatest month ever! Not only does my birthday fall during this month, but I found out recently that it's a month appreciating everything Zombie. Of course if there's a month appreciating my most favorite things, and yes Zombies are one of my most favorite things in this entire world, I am definitely going to celebrate it and I urge you to celebrate it too! From comics to movies, across all genres I can't get enough of Zombies.
Finding out that this was Zombie Appreciation Month caused me to think 'what started this love for Zombies?'
I first experienced Zombies in Jr. High School when I watched the original Night of the Living Dead; I wanted a scary movie so I rented it (I have always been a horror movie fan). I got my popcorn and snacks and had the room dark, and even though I had been a little (...a lot) desensitized by modern horror films the 1968 classic scared me. The way it was filmed, and the story, the suspense, it was amazing. I had to watch it over and over. Let's pause a moment and thank George A. Romero for everything that he has done!
During that time Resident Evil was also popular, so those two films sparked a passion that has gotten and is only going to get stronger!
A little after that time I discovered the Anita Blake Vampire Hunter series by Laurell K. Hamilton. Anita Blake is a vampire hunter but also she raises the dead for a living; she has the special ability to make zombies! This series has many great qualities, and I highly recommend it to everyone!
What was your first experience with Zombies? Leave a comment!
For this event I have created a design that is being sold on the Dementia Comics Store. There is a cool button, tote bag, and two different shirt possibilities (shown below) with the design on them. Celebrate Zombies all year long with one of these fun products!
Either way, celebrate Zombies in your own way, and have fun doing it! Have a Zombie movie night, make a themed party, or read a novel/graphic novel. You might even be able to join a group in your town that has Zombie Walks or other Zombie activities.
Enjoy!
