Zombie Boy Comics Collected Volume Title Poll
on April 1, 2014
Hello everyone! I’m going to collect the first 200 Zombie Boy comic strips into one volume and I wanted your opinion of a book title. I’ve created a couple of possible titles and I wanted to see which one gets the best response. Below is a poll with three possibilities. Look ’em over and tell me what you think. I’m really interested in knowing which one you like best!
I chose “Some Kind of Horrible” because I remembered when I first started to read your comic, Zombie Boy was not your stereotypical Zombie. So the title implies Some Kind “But not the kind you are thinking of”. I think that makes the best title considering it is the first 200 comics. The intro you might say. 😉
I’ve been wanting to use this title for a while now. It’s a play off the song “Some Kind of Wonderful.” I see it in a whole new way now that you pointed it out, Bill. Thanks for your input!
Soon as I read “Some Kind of Horrible” I sang it in my head, proud to know I share my brainwaves with a Zombie! 🙂
Judy, you’re alright, and clean out-of-sight! Thanks for sharing your opinion, it means a lot!
How did I miss this post? Anyway, I voted before reading the comments and I agree with Bill.
Voted
Thanks so much, Tim! Your support means a lot!
I vote for “Voodoo, Hoodoo and Gorr”
That sounds like a New York Times bestseller, J.P.!
Vote is in! I will confess, I went with the first one!
I’m horribly happy you like that one, Jynksie! It’s the popular choice so far… Thank you kindly for your input!
Awesome Idea Mark. Just voted, picked the top one!!
Thank you for your input, Paul! Seems like the first title is getting the most votes.
I voted for not number 1 just to screw up the poll. But number one is best.
Thanks for letting me know that, Bearman! It’s like reverse poll psychology!
I think you had your title before you started. Number one obviously.
Coming from the creator of The Hat and Fat, I’ll take that to heart, Eric! Thanks for voting!
I voted, but I’m goin’ with:
“The Whoppin’ Dead”
“Buried Treasures”
or one I know you can’t use but I like: “Zombie Boy: The Son of Obituary”
🙂
But I did like your first choice the most.
The Son of Obituary is a keeper (crypt-keeper)! Thanks so much for voting, George, your opinion is greatly respected and appreciated.
Ha! That’s much better than what I had!
I’d be interested to know what you were thinking, Eric! Thanks for voting!
You could go with the obvious title. Zombie Boy: Some Blue Dead Guy. Naw, too long.
It does have a ring to it, P.J.!
I’ll go along with #1, but I would subtitle it “Zombie Boy, the Best Comics Character Since Henry” for, er, obvious reasons…
That is a supreme compliment, Davo! Your opinion means a lot, thanks for voting!
Went with Terribly Civilized. I’m imagining him sipping tea.
Lol, yes, in a tailored burgundy robe and slippers, sitting in a big chair by a fireplace..
Oh yes, please. With the faithful Gorr chewing on his best slipper and a trail of muddy footprints going off the page.
Haha, you nailed that visual with Gorr, Jande! Love it!
I picked the top one. So *happy* to learn that soon we’ll have this book in our hands!*squee!* <3 <3 <3 (Can't wait to see the cover art!)
That makes me happy to hear, Jande! It has been a long time coming, hasn’t it? As for the cover art, I get sweaty palms just thinking about how I’m going to approach that. It’s such an important part of a book. Thanks so much for all your friendship and generous support!
ya i liked Teribly Civilized as Well! Chicken Soup for the non-soul!
Personally, I like the idea, too, Don. It has a nice ring to it. Thanks for your valued opinion!
I voted. I can’t wait to get my hands on a printed copy of this goodness!
I remember when I was kid, reading comics with sticky candy and potato chip grease-covered fingers! Ahh, those were the days! Thanks very much for your support, Carlos, it truly means a lot!
