    Why am I not surprised.

    Typical, it’s always someone else’s fault. Revenge is not just best served cold, but by stupid too. “This is all your fault!” Which is wrong, but in his head, it’s right.

      It’s also been heavily hinted he has already been brain washed by the zombie worshiping cult.

        Which, no doubt, made easier because of that under-lying feeling. People are always looking for a scape-goat…

      I don’t know if you got my callback by intent or not, but it’s great to see almost the same words echoed! https://www.zombieranchcomic.com/comic/203-breaking-worst/

  3. RC

    Honestly, probably the first time he’s ever taken control of and done ever in his life. There’s a reason why they kept him. Give a dog that’s been beat all its life a whiff of conference and control, you got a problem.

    Imagine his surprise when he stabs a pillow. 😜

  5. Zombatar

    He isn’t in control, RC – he’s probably drugged to the very dilated eyeballs, probably with Datura. Back on p.443, Eustace is shown holding a Mojave Rattlesnake on a stick while the Brujefe milks it into a glass. Mojave venom A is a paralytic neurotoxin, like tetrodotoxin. Tetrodotoxin was thought to be part of the legendary Haitian “zombie powder”. The other part was Datura, which contains scopalamine, which messes with memory and concentration, and is supposed to render victims docile and suggestible.
    The question is, where did he get his current dose, and did a little drone whisper in his ear?

539 – A Knife In The Dark (END OF EPISODE 22)
Posted on December 25, 2024 by Dawn

Happy Holidays, all! That's a wrap (heh) for Episode 22 just in time for a Christmas cliffhanger! Hope we don't twist the knife too much...

See y'all in 2025 when Zombie Ranch continues!

You have been Warned…

Listen, I don’t want to just spend this post gushing. I can hype this band all I want but I recognize that at the end of the day, people have different tastes in music. I’m also in no way an expert musician, hell I wouldn’t even call myself an expert comic book writer. But man, is there a lot of talent here. Young talent. Rockin’ talent. Talent I pretty much randomly stumbled across just a few weeks ago and I’ve been combing their catalog ever since. Actually it’s more accurate to say this is the second time I stumbled across them, since shortly after being floored by the first few songs I listened to I realized that these young ladies are the same ones whose video of their cover of Metallica’s Enter Sandman went viral eight years ago.
Behold the Villareal sisters. At the time of this video guitarist/vocalist Dany was the eldest at 14, with drummer Pau at 12 and bassist Ale holding up an instrument almost as big as she was at the seasoned age of nine. But basically they filmed this for their grandparents and while I vaguely remember being impressed with the effort, it was hardly the stuff of lasting impact. Another day, another viral video, right? Next week it’ll be a duck quacking The Star Spangled Banner. But these girls? They stuck with it, even after their fifteen minutes of fame. They worked hard. They did TED talks and went to music school and started composing and playing their own stuff. They grew up, and practiced, and started touring, and even the pandemic could only derail them for so long. To express it in on-the-nose fashion? They Evolved.
That’s them now in 2022. I’ve subscribed to their Patreon and bought tickets to see them next month since their touring schedule took them to Palm Springs… which is a bit of a drive from L.A. but they’re based out of Mexico and by the time they come back around I’m not so sure I’ll be able to score $25 tickets to see them in a small venue. I feel like they’re on the cusp of really hitting the big time and I’m not alone in that estimation, it’s just a matter of them continuing to get noticed. Take a trip down the rabbit hole, check out the rest of their music and maybe you might join me. So here’s your notice. You have been Warned.
