Sunday Gem: Over My Dead Body - Tim Molloy & Ben Stenbeck
Tim Molloy:
So way back in 2001, by
buddy Ben Stenbeck ( BPRD, Baltimore) and I watched too many Zombie
movies and westerns and as a result we made a comic together, (me
writing, him drawing) called Over My Dead Body. It's a zombie story, a
last man alive story, and kind of a story about why I don't believe in
God, or would even want to... Anyway, it's been gathering dust for more
than a decade and Ben has finally decided to release it for our viewing
pleasure. It's quite old and a bit mouldy and dusty, but I guess when
all is said and done, I am proud of it, and still blown away that I got
to direct Ben Stenbecks mighty pen hand for 80 or so pages! Enjoy!

From the Woden Bus Interchange to the beautiful streets of Brunswick, and over 10 issues (plus lots of other mini comics collected here!), Hutcho has been smashing the piss out of all conventions such as growing up, other comics, modern medicine, pop music, sport, organised religion, and other unimportant things.
