    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!

Wait. You’re branding it twice?

This time next week, Dawn and I should be down in San Diego, steeling ourselves for five straight days of showing off Zombie Ranch to any and all that might wander by Small Press K-4. We won’t be in the schedule as Zombie Ranch, however. For the first time (but hopefully not the last), we’ll be officially using the label Lab Reject Studios. We’ve been intending to make this switchover for some time now, ever since we finally came up with a name late last year that a) wasn’t taken (not easy!), and b) we could both agree on (DEFINITELY NOT EASY). Now you might ask, why go through this trouble? Well, thing is, Dawn’s been doing her art for a lot longer than Zombie Ranch existed, and if weren’t for her persisting in said art over the years, Zombie Ranch just flat out wouldn’t exist at all. She’s been participating in the Art Show at Comic-Con International since 2004 and maintains an extensive gallery of her work both on DeviantArt and her personal site, Art of Dawn. In fact, when we made our debut exhibiting at Long Beach Comic Con 2009 (also where we debuted Zombie Ranch), I believe we used Art of Dawn as the label for our table, not to mention the Zombie Ranch #1 print issue… it wasn’t a huge amount of brand recognition, but it was something, right? So it’s never been purely Zombie Ranch when we go to conventions, nor do we feel it should be. But Art of Dawn is, well… Dawn’s baby, so it didn’t feel right to keep everything under that name either. Beyond that we had (have!) dreams of making more comics in the future, and we needed to figure out something to put on a permanent seller’s permit so we didn’t have to keep getting new permits every show, and… You see how it goes — but the actual going has been slow. First figuring out the name, then the paperwork, then when you sign up for conventions you’re usually doing so weeks if not months in advance… and then there’s the matter of a Facebook/Twitter/Web presence when people go looking for you. It was a lot to sort out, but we’ve finally got everything at least in a fledgling state, just in time for our listing in the SDCC programming. http://www.labreject.com http://www.facebook.com/labreject http://twitter.com/labreject All that said, Zombie Ranch will be a BIG part of our presence at San Diego, and not just at our table… our Z Ranch temporary tattoos will be part of the giveaways for the Zombie Walk. We can’t be there ourselves due to needing to man the exhibit hall, but we’re hoping there’ll be a nice herd of branded zeds at the pre-party and shambling down the avenues, and the best part is you don’t even need a Comic-Con badge to participate! Still lots of preparation to be done. I’ll have another blog for you next week, but we’ll be making use of a generously donated (and very striking) piece of fan art to tide you over until we continue the story in the wake of the Con, hopefully for the benefit of several new sets of eyeballs (rotting or otherwise). See you then!
