The Outhouse - The Greatest Comic Book Forum

[LOLtron]

Guns blazing, a young "Teddy" Roosevelt cuts his way through a horde of zombies in Frederick Kim's "The Dead and Endless Wastes," appearing in Indie Comics Magazine's Summer Issue, scheduled for preorder in Diamond's June 2012 Previews under Aazurn Publishing.

---

After a Star Trek fiction Kim wrote was published by Pocket Books, he explored writing for comics and Hollywood. A life-long fan of science fiction and fantasy, he's been recognized in several screenwriting contests for his television pilots and spec teleplays.

At Andy Schmidt's Comics Experience workshop for comics creators, Kim met other talented storytellers who joined together to form Elevator Pitch Press.

Kim is working on several projects, including a TV pilot about a combat support hospital in a world devastated by a global pandemic, and a cyberpunk comic mini-series about the coming robot revolution. "I realize I have a thing for stories about worst-case scenarios," he said.

Indie Comics Magazine's Summer Issue will feature eight complete stories, from creators as diverse as Norwegian Glenn Møane, Australia's Paul Bradford and Haller Award winner Joe Sergi.

The moody cover painting for the Summer Issue is by Image and Disney illustrator Terry Pavlet.

I'd read that

[garyscottbeatty]

Thanks, Schlemmer, I thought it was a hot concept, too. Roosevelt was a real badass, a rancher in the Dakota Badlands, ran a volunteer cavalry during the Spanish-American War and pushed to complete the Panama Canal. Teachers are always telling us he was a big outdoorsman, but "outdoorsman" in the early 1900s was a heck of a lot rougher than hitting a state park today. I can totally see him plugging zombies with a sidearm! Find out more about writer Frederick Kim at http://indiecomicsmagazine.com

I like it!

but I am sure that somehow Alan Moore did it first

we need an OH calender so that when books like this, books that are probably not on pull lists, come up for pre-order and/purchase we can be reminded to look for them

or, maybe an option at the bottom of articles like this to be emailed when pre-orders / purchase is available.
