    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 horse is a horse, of course, of course…

Horses are terrifying. My artist has convinced me of this. Oh sure, I knew they could be dangerous. They’re big suckers. People can get crushed to death by a horse falling on them. There’s a good reason that for hundreds (if not thousands) of years, heavy cavalry charges could make or break an entire battle when they thundered into enemy lines. So when my wife accuses me of having thought of horses as nothing more than My Little Pony, that’s not entirely accurate. What I actually meant to say was that I figured she’d have to “zombie it up” in order for it to be truly creepy and scary. That’s when she started showing me pictures of horses rolling their eyes and baring their teeth, sticking their heads in car windows to frighten small children, and all manner of roguery.  Frankly, the rotting zombie horse she came up with seems well-behaved by comparison (at least for now). Anyhow, welcome to everyone who’s been reaching us by way of our cunningly placed ad links. Hopefully you’re liking what you see so far, or at least intrigued enough to come on back by for a few more Wednesdays. If you really feel inspired, you can always give us a click for a TopWebComics vote, or leave a comment on this site or our forum. We already had a couple fans drop us a line informing us of a cool sounding zombie flick we hadn’t seen yet (Dead Snow), for which we are greatly thankful. Speaking of movies, Dawn and I have been in further touch with Mondo Celluloid, the organizers of the 2nd Annual Long Beach Zombie Walk. They have been gracious enough to make us a sponsor for the month, and we’re going to be there on Friday, Oct. 30th to be part of the shamble and hand out some Zombie Ranch swag. There’s an entire evening of zombie fun planned on 4th street. The details are here. So if you’re near the L.A. area, come on by! Participating in the walk is absolutely free, though tickets for the Night of the Living Dead midnight screening are $10 each (you can pre-order with the link above).
