Sam Humphries is well known to Bleeding Cool readers. He's scored monster self distribution hits with Our Love Is Real and Sacrifice. But before writing about Mayan sacrifice and man-on-dog sex, he wrote Fraggle Rock comics.

Quite a jump.

And in April he's writing a new ongoing series for Boom!, Fanboys Vs Zombies, drawn by Jerry Gaylord. Humberto Ramos draws the cover for the first issue, costing just a dollar. Here's the solicitation text.

One is a decrepit mob of gurgling, ravenous fiends…and the other is a zombie outbreak. When there is no more room in Hell, the undead shall take over Comic-Con! A crew of feuding best friends find themselves trapped inside America's largest comic convention transformed into a seething cauldron of zombies. Is a horde of starving brain-eaters any match against reflexes battle-hardened by video games, nerves tested by horror flicks, and courage crystallized by comic books? Find out as an unlikely band of nerds use their genre savvy to survive in Fanboys vs. Zombies! Written by indie sensation Sam Humphries (Our Love is Real) with art by hot new talent Jerry Gaylord! Don't forget to ask your retailer about the rare CGC 9.8 Near Mint variant by Marvel Zombies artist and Zombie King Arthur Suydam!
