    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!

A Halloween Crush

Posted on October 28, 2009 by Clint
Well, we got mentioned favorably in another blog, this time at A World on Fire. A common mistake was made where he put down our URL as zombieranch.com, rather than zombieranchcomic.com, but I can’t fault him for that. Embarrassingly enough, there’s still times I make that mistake myself, and I’m writing the dang thing! Zombieranch.com, as far as I can tell, has been reserved since the year 2000 by Flying ~M~ Design, and since there are other completely different domain names that lead to that same (mostly) blank page, I suppose they’re just hanging onto the domains for whatever reason. I’m not even sure how we would have gone about contacting them since even flyingm.org just gives that same page. Maybe one day we’ll figure that out. Meantime, zombieranchcomic it is. Tell your friends. Tell people who aren’t your friends. Then flee while they’re still confused. With the introduction of Frank and Zeke we’ve got some new faces on the Zombie Ranch. Within the next few weeks we’ll probably get a cast page up so people can keep track, but right now your dynamic duo are busy getting stickers and gummi candy brains together for this Friday’s Zombie Walk. Not to mention my wondrously whimsical wife has a special full-color sketch planned for posting on Halloween. If you feel like a sneak preview we decided to try out the whole ‘incentives’ feature on TopWebComics, but no worries, either way everyone stopping by on October 31st gets a treat in the form of Susannah Zane in Halloween garb. After that we’ll be back on Wednesday Nov. 4th, but I’m particularly fond of our latest comic since we’re finally getting to some zombie handling, in the form of a bipedally modified, high-tech version of the cattle crushes they’ve used to immobilize livestock for many years. Those of you who have been wondering why zombies are ranched also get your first reason. By no means the only reason, but if you have any thoughts to share on what events a zombie rodeo might have, feel free. I leave you with another picture that really inspired me in writing Zombie Ranch, probably in part because the cow looks almost zombified. Though of course if this rancher was touching a real zombie’s teeth, he’d best have his gloves on!
