Here's the last page to Zombie Love # 5 (spoiler alert). People were just discussing the use of swear words in comics. My take is that I like the idea of the reader filling in the obvious blank themselves. Then again, in a different story, swearing is fookin' gret.

Here's a scan of the ZuZuPetal/Zombie Love trading card set we did. There was another promotional Offspring card produced that's not pictured here. I'm not even sure I have that one. We also did a higher rez version of card 4 of the set that had better line screen and better paper stock.
