This is the second book in this four book series.  You will see, as you read through this one, things just keep getting better and better. The guys at Crude Comics Inc. never seem to disappoint and have made a true fan out of me.
 
We have this character, Driver.  He is a vigilante of sorts.  A vigilante on the fly, I guess you could say.  But he’s not just any kind of vigilante.  This guy is special.  He can sense the evil and the terrible things inside the people he comes into contact with, knowing their intentions before they get the chance to act on them themselves. He is a protector, stalking the horrid and vile through the night, wreaking havoc on all that he finds offensive and wrong.
 
This issue was fantastically written and leaves you wanting nothing but more.  No disappointment.  In fact, the ending is, in my opinion, is perfect.  Like I said, when you’re done reading you’re in this mode of “NO! Wait! What happens????  Tell meeeeee!!!”.  But, you just have to wait and read the third one.  Probably best if you get both two and three at the same time, if you can. It’s senseless to cause yourself the suspense when you can have it right there in your hot little hands.
 
The artists have a true talent for recognizing when color is needed and when color is an accessory. Here, they expertly use small splashes of color amidst black and white, the impact of the colors almost popping off the pages.  This gives a phenomenal effect to the feel of the story.  Plus, it adds to the beauty of the basicness of the book.  Simple art.  Simple story.  No clutter. No frills.  Just good old fashioned storytelling and artwork brought together in a creepy harmony of horror.
 
This series is a definite must read.  I have book three waiting for me to read already.  Do you have yours?

This was the conclusion of a two book mini-series.  And what a way to finish!  These guys give us more blood, more gore, more disgusting comical depravity and more kill scenes than one could ever expect.  Packed with gory, seedy violence and full of cries for mercy splashed with spurts of blood, the meat of this story is told less and less with words and more with the images these fellow horror lovers have expertly created.  
 
Stuffed with dark comedy and the ever so perfect stereotype of male chauvinism, we get the crude enjoyment of other people’s demise that we have come to count on from Crude Comics Inc. There’s a spectacular use of color and the contrast of that with sections of black and white really make the splatter scenes jump off the page at you.  
 
We are gifted with blood on almost every page and the joy of getting right down to the dirty dying instead of being bombarded by a bunch a needless and un-natural chatter between characters.  This issue is a fast read with tons of nasty and raunchy blood splashed action.  I’m telling ya, these zombies are literally dripping with nastiness.  I love it!!! 
 
I think the guys have hit a home run with this two issue series.  But, perhaps it should come with some kind of warning, for those of you with weaker stomachs and all. (Non-offensive eye roll inserted here. Buck up people.)  
 
Seriously though, you REALLY don’t want to pass this up.  It’s got everything you need: chicks, beer, sex, death, drugs, blood, zombies, gore, bikinis, spring break, young stupid people…I mean how picky are you about your horror???? What more do you want?!?!?!
