"First off, I must apologize
to Brian John Mitchell and his three cover artists. Zombie Kisses
is presented in a unique form. So unique in fact that the three issues
ended up read and tucked away with my special things before I quite
knew that I hadn't done up a review. Each issue can fit in the palm
of your hand. I love it! I've been carrying them around all
day just because I like the way that they feel. Well, that and to
remind myself to write the review. Remember " Night of the Living Dead"
& it's many sequels? Well, Zombie Kisses is the story
of, what I assume to be our world after a zombie virus has broken down
our society and turned the dead into animated nightmares. Issue #1
with it's eerily ambiguous cover sets up the story of two brothers
who've lost all the family they held dear. It describes for you their
current living situation and their necessary steps for survival.
The last page climaxes with a cliffhanger that leaves you wanting more.
Yet I was a bit afraid of what would come next. Zombie Kisses
2 strikes you first with it's lonely cover art, portraiture of a soul
afraid to go on. The portrait then continue's with it's close look
of what the one brother feels and his loss of self. The third issue
takes a look into the head of the other brother as he tries to organize
survivors for carrying on. You, the reader can not be sure of his
ultimate fate though he seems convinced that he will not last long.
The accompanying art is macabre. This series is a whole lot of fun.
The powers that be just have to do up a film adaptation. My only
criticism is that at times the story and cover art seemed like something
dreamed up by my nephew when he was thirteen. Not necessarily being
a bad thing. It conveys a feeling of doomsday prophecy. You want
to know how much I like Zombie Kisses? I read it three times.
How many times will you read it?"
