Two weeks ago Melvin,Charlie Brazen, our friend Danielle and Myself set forth on a journey through time and space and ended up on a strange planet filled with Super Heroes, Monsters and Baddies, better known as Comicpalooza.
My small business Custom Comix had a booth at this particular convention, so not only was I there on business, but it was a great excuse to go out and give Moms Basement a workout. I don’t think I could through one conversation without them asking about Melvin. He was popping out of my badge holder the entire weekend, and he was quite popular. I’m pretty sure I got cut off mid sentence a few times by “So what’s his story?” or “Who is this guy?”.
Melvin even got to rub elbows with a few celebrities! Whattt! So click through the jump to check out all of Melvin’s new friends, and the stories that go with them– Enjoy!
WARNING: Melvin is definitely a ladies man, which is probably why most the the men that crossed Melvin’s path tried to exterminate him. I assure you that no Melvins were harmed (badly) for the enjoyment of Moms Basement.
Have you ever wondered why Zombies are always chasing the living? How about why they are constantly moaning and hobbling about, dragging a foot with arms outstretched clawing their way to any sign of life? Of course you have. There is nothing we humans are more afraid of than the unknown. It seems almost too easy but, why not just ask one? This week, I did just that!
Amanda Adams is a singer-songwriter/actress who is also a featured Zombie from a little show you may have heard of.. AMC’s The Walking Dead! TWD is an amazing suspense drama telling the story of a group of survivors in a newly post apocalyptic world. TWD is based on Robert Kirkman’s comic book series of the same title. It’s easy to get wrapped up in all of the drama of the survivors, but thanks to Amanda, we get to see first hand what it was like to be a walker ( That’s slang for a Zombie).
Sit back, grab some salt and come pick Amanda’s brain with me, it’s only fitting right?
