Crossed by bombMexico 05/05/2009, 11:08pm PDT I was going to chair a caltrops book club featuring the first issue of Crossed but Fussbett beat me to it and also used a real book, so i'm doing this here. you might need cdisplay to open this. Do i have to tag NWS on this? Don't read comics at work in any case. Crossed is another zombie book, the twist is that the zombies really like brains...and rape! They're also still alive after infection and can still talk and drive around and use guns. I think only a few issues are out so i can't review the series but its started out well enough. Four issues into it we only know the name of 2-3 survivors and there is just the very beginning of a plot to maybe think about heading towards a less populated Alaska. Up until then its just been crossed zombies jumping out of the bushes and eating and raping their way through various backdrops but its in COLOR unlike fucking million selling Walking Dead so i can't complain. *Talking points for next meeting This first issue has what is probably the most satisfying and hilarious rape scene in any medium. Agree/disagree?
