When the Zombies come marching in...

Good day ladies and gents!!  It's that time of year again. No, not diwali or christmas!


No, I am referring to the recently kick-started (and MUCH anticipated) second season of The Walking Dead, the mega-hit TV adaptation of Robert Kirkman's amazing comic odyssey on the undead. It paints a stark and real picture in a genre much-maligned (at times VERY justified) because of the loads of BAD movies that have come out over the years - in fact its a picture so real that the comic has been running for over 90 issues now and the show is a runaway success as well. 
The biggest thing about The Walking Dead is how relatable and real everything including the characters are and for some of us who are more inclined to believe such an apocalypse is a possibility (and believe us there are quite a few including some of our own). 
So with that in mind, we here at ComicAddicts elected to bring you some info on zombies and what to expect when the ectoplasm hits the fan!

Survival is the first thing that pops in one’s mind when asked about the zombie apocalypse, all thanks to comic books, movies and grandma’s bedtime stories. All I can say is that if yours read you those, that is one cool grandma.
Take care of her. Until the zombies get to her that is...
How about a bed time story?

Who is Aru, anyway?



A little History… 

Archie Comics, Walt Disney, and 2000AD


The first memory of ever seeing or reading a comic book was in, Nacovi, Nadi Town in Fiji. It was two different ones, an Archie and a Walt Disney Comics, with Goofy etc. Its reading these comics at the age of 7 or 8yrs old that has become the focal point in my life. 

The second memory is, when having moved to New Zealand with my mother in 1981.  A tent created with my knees under blanket at night, a small torch lighting the 2000AD comics, my friend had lent me.

Who would have thought that the from the age of 17 to 21yrs old would see myself spending thousands of dollars on comics and then losing then to the fire in 1999. And then I didn’t pick up a comic again till I began my studies for a Bachelors Degree in Digital Filmmaking in 2003. I got back into the comics as a way of meeting/making news friends in a city, Invercargill, New Zealand. I also started trading in them and also collecting as an investment. And have continued that trend up till now 8yrs later.

The Pondering Pawaskar - An opinion on WERE HOUSE titled…….If wishes WERE HORSES….or…..I’m a WERE-ASS….


[The author wishes to make it ridiculously clear that the opinions mentioned below have sprung from his own messed up head & the owners/administrators/co-contributors (one of whom has been mentioned below) of this site do not necessarily support these opinions. He would understand if the said owners/administrators/co-contributors resort to concocting tales of his dementia or of his being a were-ass to counter the bad publicity the opinions below might garner.]

I titled this article as an opinion instead of a review because I believe that reviews are done by people who know a thing or two about comics. Opinions on the other hand are like assholes. Everyone has one and so I qualify! Two things to note before you read. There are SPOILERS and a spoilt comic geek stuck in a thankless job venting his fury ahead. You have been sufficiently warned.
