false <![CDATA[The Living and the Dead]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174579687m/418694.jpg 418694 2 <B>A silent zombie comedy with a sweet love story at its heart.</B> After a couple of downright chatty full-color books ("Why Are You Doing This?" and "The Left Bank Gang") the Norwegian cartoonist Jason returns, for his ninth Fantagraphics graphic novel, to his two-tone mute roots with "The Living and the Dead," a George A. Romero-esque zombie comedy that he intends to be the middle installment of his "horror trilogy" begun with the Frankenstein monster love triangle of "You Can't Get There From Here." (The third one is still under wraps.) (And no, "under wraps" isn't some sort of clue as to the nature of the monster.) Jason's elegant deadpan style somehow manages to make the gruesome gore and splatter effects almost charming, and yes, it is a sweet love story at heart. If you read only one book in which a zombie devours a baby this year (even Romero never quite summoned up the nerve for that), read this one! 2093534 14 3 2007 The Living and the Dead total:201|5:51|4:80|3:60|2:10|1:0| 201 775 237 21 4 1 false false Thu Nov 27 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Thu Nov 27 21:47:26 -0800 2008 Fri Dec 05 08:05:25 -0800 2008

There’s no better way to prove a man’s love than to put a zombie invasion between him and his loved one.
