Buy more stuff from Max Brooks

Max Brooks, creator of the famous Zombie Survival Guide and expanded story World War Z has developed a graphic novel called
The Zombie Survival Guide: Recorded Attacks.
It's due out June 2nd, 2009- quite a ways away, pre-order it now.

In the meantime you can buff up on your survival knowledge with the 'Guide in Deck form- each card has illustrations and information on them for quick access. I can't see how these would be helpful during an outbreak. I would assume they'd scatter quickly.

The Guide franchise seems to be getting bigger. You can now buy blank notepads and journals with 'Zombie Survival' and 'Max Brooks' printed all over them. Whatever makes you feel special I suppose.

In other Max Brooks news; development of the film adaptation of World War Z is chugging along. Mark Forster, director of the recent bad ass James Bond movie Quantum of Solace, will be directing and J. Michael Straczynski, who apparently created Babylon 5, will be adapting the book into screenplay.

If you still haven't read The Zombie Survival Guide or World War Z, do so now.
