VARKING DEAD: A History Part 4


Benjamin Hobbs:

VARKING DEAD #1 will be on store shelves next March, but there has been a long and winding path to the comic that will appear on the shelves of your LCS next winter.

As you may have noticed over the last three weeks, THE VARKING DEAD logo has evolved.

David's first logo appears to be based off of an issue of THE WALKING DEAD. The line work around the "R" looks a bit too thin:


About the second version he says:

"I just found out something hilarious about the Walking Dead logo.  It turns out that it only appears to be the same logo, but over time it has evolved and there are several variations.  The funny thing is what typeface it is based on.  It's the friggin' Super Mario Brothers font.  That's so funny that I'm redoing the logo in that font.  It's a joke so inside I don't know if anyone other than me thinks it's even that funny, but it just cracks me up.  Super Mario Varking Dead logo on the way."

This is what that logo looks like:


The version I created is also based off the Walking Dead logo. The lines around my "R"  are also a bit thin. "R"s are really hard to make, apparently:


Next Week: Get your fancy coloured pencils ready! COLOUR YOUR OWN CEREBUS IN HELL? #1 is IN STORES!

On the TV show, the outbreak was caused by the blue meth from Breaking Bad.

"it was A joke", right, Matt?

Birdsong, it's not exactly a mystery. What caused the zombie outbreak was all of the thinner millenials.

They're lean and tasty, and they smell good.
