Another toy update…

Jay J. Arms

I finally got around to updating the toy blog with a cool toy line form the 70’s based on the no-handed detective Jay J. Arms, aka JJ Arms.

ClickMonkeys!! was my first web site, and I’ve let it languish for a while. So last night I finally got around to migrating it to a CMS and updating some of the copy. Just need to get in some redirectors and it’s nice and new and relevant again!

A few months late and a new artist, Jheremy Raapack (who rocks!) but RE3 is finally on shelves. Picked up my copy today.

The story finally brings together Agents Gere and Sugarman in Ubelandia, a made up South American nation. They’e on be trail of the source of the latest T-virus outbreaks and are ambushed by zombies. Any more would be telling!

I think the series really takes off with this issue.

From the classic Italian horror film, Zombie

I know I said I was working on a sequel to Elvis Sightings. And I am. But I got distracted by the wonderful world of zombies.

A friend of mine told me about a couple of publishers looking for zombie material so I turned my attention to where I knew I would find fertile ground. Besides, I’ve done zombies once with Resident Evil, I figured I had the zombie patois down. Ngggggg Unnggggggg Guuuuhhhhh. You know.

So I’ve been working on two premises for zombie based stories. One follows a fairly traditional zombiepocalypse scenario, but I think I found an interesting twist on it.

The second, which is the one I really, really like, well, I’m not going to tell you. I think its such a good idea I don’t want you to steal it. Sorry.

As a byproduct of working on these zombie pitches, yet another friend of mine turned me on to Cliffhanger Books and a new short story anthology they’re working on called Paramourtal. A supernatural romance collection that is a play on Paramour and Mortal. I think the title is clever. In fact, I thought it was so clever I immediately turned my attention to crafting a zombie romance to submit.

Why should vampires get all the love?
