Here are two events, just two, I saw advertised on the way home from Z-Town: The Zombie Musical: Sadly we’ll be in Bloomington, IN for The Dark Carnival that weekend!

This particular charitable Zombie Walk I’m not sure the ZRC could have gotten *entirely* behind since it doubled as a game launch event for notable Evil Anti-Zombie game ‘Dead Island’: Zombies aren’t usually known for being the most charitable or fun loving monsters, but come this Labor Day, a group of zombies will be just [...]

Sorry I didn’t have time to update much today, it was *crazy* at the Kon. First of all, had some setup issues, then there was a huge traffic jam I got caught in running a forgotten bit of supplies there, etc. However, all in all it was a fantastic first day. (Our mostly set-up booth. [...]
