So. Let's get to know each other. Dinner and a movie?

Okay, if you've just stumbled into this or you've only read the first post or whatever, you've got to be scratching your heads.

"What the hell is Unfed?"

Well like I said. It's a comic. About Zombies, and the people who're trying not to be eaten by them. Sounds wholesome I know. I know what some of you are saying, Zombies are so cliche. Hey, I'm inclined to agree with you on that front. How many zombie films have hit in the last few years? Hell, how many are going to hit in the next few?

So what the hell's so different about Unfed? Why should you even care? Let's examine the biggest cliche in zombie lore. The job. What did the main character do for a living? What did the second main character do? Chances are they were a cop. Or a doctor. Or a military strategist or some other damn thing that assures they have an advantage in the world of the damned over most people because they have a background that provides a useful skill set.

Not in Unfed they don't. The main characters in Unfed are regular joes just like you and me. They don't know how to load a gun or know how to set a broken leg. They don't have the skills to keep them alive. Hell, will they be alive by the end of the story?

More info on Unfed will be unveiled in the coming weeks, and now that you know at least the theme of the story hopefully you'll come back soon to learn more about it as it comes.
