Have a spooky Halloween this week! To get you started here’s the 1977 gang taking on a zombie horde. You sharp-eyed folks will recognize that this comic is a parody of the film “Shaun of the Dead”, which explains Bud’s shirt and tie. I thought what better movie to parody than “Shaun of the Dead” as they use records to hold off some zombies.
Feels really good to be back. Now, don’t get your motors running too fast yet as I’m still on the road to recovery here. I will be posting seasonal comics like this and perhaps some others between now and February. After the New Year, I’ll see where I am as far as my health and make a decision then. But, the comic will come back, even if it’s only once a month. So just know I’m coming back somehow.
I want to thank everyone for their support during these past few months. They were exactly the highlight of my life thus far, but at least they’re behind me. So for now, let’s rock this thing best we can.

Welcome back! You have been missed and we will gratefully take whatever you feel you can give.
Thank you! Small steps, but at least I’m drawing again. 🙂
Welcome back, Byron! It’s great to see you back. Hang in there, keep taking those small steps, and wishing you all the best. 🙂
As for those zombies, they don’t stand a chance against Bud, Jeff, Robyn, and Lorraine. 😀
No, the zombies don’t stand a chance!
And thank you, Dave, for the well wishes. 🙂
Good to have you back brother.
Feels good. I hope to keep that going.
Wow , the things I miss when I get busy – didn’t know you were having issues or I would have at least dropped an email to say hi. 🙁 Funny I happened to swing by today and you just posted this …
Hope you’re doing better and we look forward to seeing you around, whatever way you can be here. Hang tough, bud.
Well, no worries, man. I’m back and that’s all that matters. I’ll be fine… eventually. Getting closer all the time.
YES! I LOVE IT! 10 out of 10! THIS IS TOO AWESOME!
Thank you, OfficerM! 🙂
Great! Keep fighting the good fight…
Will do, man! 🙂
While I don’t want to be all cliché – the journey of 1000 miles beginning with the first step and all that… thanks for beginning the journey again Byron! Looking forward to whatever spews forth from the 1977 wellspring! Rock on Bro!
Thanks, man! Folks like you keep me coming back. As long I’m makin’ someone smile, then I know I’ve earned my keep for that day. 🙂
ah, the good old cricket bat! In the context of hitting things, much superior to the baseball bat… (I’m not getting into comparing the relative merits of the two sports, btw, just saying that with a far wider blade it’s impossible to swing it and miss… AND you can concentrate the hitting power edge-on.)
I would have to agree, it looks like a rather lethal weapon… if used that way. 🙂
Probably unknown outside the UK, but here’s an appropriate song from 1975: Roy Harper, “When an old cricketer Leaves The Crease”

Yep, never heard that song before. But it was a lovely tune. Thanks for sharing!
You did it without Haitian voodoo they use poison from ground up pufferfish poor little guys to leave the victim in a zombie undead like trance. Probably works better than voodoo dolls even though it’s fun to stick pins in them while saying ow that hurts. Better yet grafting a Kaiser mustache peacock feathers on the the doll. Then have it wear nothing but a pickelhaube helmet, corset and thigh high boots then saying that’s Ann Coulter, Bill O Reilly, G,Gordon Liddy, Dick Chenny, George W Bush or Donald Rumsfeld. Humming spooky living dead music night of the living dead neocons oh the horror.
