Annotations:
Gwen’s life is fairly simple: go to work as a gravedigger,
hang over friends and consume a brain once a month to avoid turning into a
walking stereotype. The last one is thanks to her condition as a zombie, which
is where her job comes in handy. After all it’s not the recently deceased is
going to mind.
Her routine life is disrupted however, when Gwen is spotted
by an organisation dedicated to eradicating the living dead. Matters are
complicated further when she eats her latest meal, obtaining the memories of
those she consumes thanks to her diet.
The latest memories however, are relevant in the sense that
her recent meal was in fact murdered and so Gwen promises to find the killer so
that the killer’s victim may shut up and leave her in peace.
Get hooked with this moderately paced, character-paced paranormal fantasy horror that uses sequential art with a colourful cartoon style to get readers to come back for more.
