Earliest known Gorr sketch.

I was going through an old sketchbook of drawings I did when I was first putting together ideas for the Zombie Boy comic strip and I came across this early doodle of Gorr. At first, I wasn’t sure he was going to be a dog or a cat, or even what gender he was! As a matter of fact, I think my thought was that no one would know exactly what he was, haha. It’s interesting to note that the stripes stayed on and so did the basic body shape. So now you know where it all began, maybe you can see some of the reason why I call him a demon-dog! You can see Gorr’s first appearance here.

Zombie Boy and Gorr by Chris Zalucki (click image to enlarge)

This whimsical illustration by Chris Zalucki was inspired by a classic Charles Schulz drawing of Charlie Brown and Snoopy sitting on a dock “only with more zombie,” says Chris. Chris creates Man’s Galaxy, which follows the colorful exploits of Manfred E. Galaxy and his sidekick, Dennis Drosophil, as they travel the stars to seek out fun and adventure. Man’s Galaxy is posted every Monday, so warp over there and check it out! Thanks, Chris!

Zombie Boy and Gorr by Vince Dorse

Vince Dorse is the very capable and talented creator/writer/artist of Untold Tales of Bigfoot, which has aptly been described as “an engaging ongoing story ‘for grown-ups and kids’ about a lost dog and the lonely Yeti who becomes his friend.”Vince and I exchanged fan art, the above piece was his rendition of the Ju-Juvenile, Gorr and even Judas the cat. What a great piece of work, eh?
