I, Zombie combines girl detectives, go-go boots, and the occasional were-terrier.

Today presents you with a chance to get in on the ground floor of a new comic series.
About six feet under the ground floor, technically.
The series is I, Zombie, described by its publisher Vertigo as a mix of zombie girl detective, urban fantasy and romantic dramedy. Which, let's just note, is a lot to chew on already, and that's not even mentioning the wealth of densely quirky elements writer Chris Roberson tosses into the pot, which send the book soaring past merely "high-concept" into ... just plain high.
To name a few:
1. Our lead character? Gwendolyn "Gwen" Dylan. Gravedigger. Zombie. Denture-wearer. (Okay, not that last thing.)
2. Gwen must eat one brain a month "or I go all mindless and shambling."
