PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: The first two issues of Mark Millar’s disturbed horror/comedy are available again right here, collected with a new cover by series artist Anthony Williams! Welcome to the most depraved comic book of the 21st century, a disturbing, mini series that blends traditional animation with photo strip storytelling to produce one of the most compelling horror/comedies in years. The Unfunnies is a journey through the dark side of the human soul like Magnolia or Happiness, but told in the style of your favorite animated cartoon strips.

OK, it’s really, really been a while, but now that he’s gotten all the Civil War stuff out of his system, Mark Millar has finished up the sickest book he’s ever written.

The trouble is, Pussywhisker’s wife wants a big family and if he can’t deliver the goods he has to trawl bars and find guys with more potent sperm than he’s got. Yoikes! The mystery of the human Troy Hicks and the spate of child murders in the town takes a sinister, very supernatural turn as we find out where cartoon animals go when they die. Certain to be the most disturbed series of the year, don’t miss it! This issue is available with both Regular and Offensive covers drawn by Jacen Burrows.

Format: Full Color, 16 pages, 6 of 6

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: They fought in the jungles of Vietnam and witnessed, first-hand, undead US Army soldiers decimating the enemy. They returned to Stone Mountain, Virginia to find that same, sickening horror has overtaken their home town and devoured their families. And now, trapped within a school gymnasium, a trio of Vietnam veterans must make the ultimate choice: Stay in the questionable safety of the gym and pray for rescue… Or run, before the building is overtaken by the army of zombies waiting outside its doors. But running means leaving behind the other survivors with whom they have taken refuge, a terrified group who look to the heavily armed soldiers to defend them from the PLAGUE OF THE LIVING DEAD. The nerve-shattering climax, the fate of the soldiers and their ultimate decision will leave you breathless. And if you think you’ve guessed the ending of this 6-issue terror-thon, think again! It’s a shocker that you won’t soon forget!
