    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?

    Me lleva la chingada !

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!

Seeing shadows…

Posted on December 15, 2021 by Clint
Groundhog Day isn’t until next February but here Dawn and I are, preparing to squint our way back into the metaphorical daylight after a long hibernation. I mean technically we started that earlier by getting a new comic posted back in November, but here today is another page! And then Friday we’ll be rolling out and setting up a convention booth again at long last for Season’s Screamings. I think we still have everything. I think it still works. I hope we remember how to put our banner up. Will we see our shadows, or will we scurry back into our hole for six more weeks of winter? See, now, even my metaphors are rusty. Here comes the nerd brigade in my head with corrections… – Um, actually, it will be December 17 this Friday and Winter in the Northern Hemisphere in 2021 does not begin until the solstice on December 21st. – Um, actually, the groundhog tradition states that if the groundhog sees its shadow it will retreat to its den and Winter weather will linger, while if it does not see its shadow then an early Spring is forecast. – Um, actually, rodents have no influence on global weather patterns and so this is all superstitious nonsense regardless. But you know, I feel like the tentative squinting will at least be a fact. Luckily we don’t have to be there for setup until noon and the convention is happening right in our backyard… okay, not quite that close but close enough that a run back to our place for anything forgotten is not out of the question. Our booth placement doesn’t seem like the best and we don’t know who our neighbors will be, but as far as getting back into the pool this is not the deep end. There, that metaphor was better. Enjoy the comic, and if we don’t see any of you this weekend then hopefully we’ll see you next year!
