The Savage Brothers

(Boom!, 2006–2007)
™ and © Boom! Studios

A world overrun by undead zombies can be a pretty miserable place, but if you’re handy with a gun and willing to face some dangerous situations, you can make a lot of money and beer. A pair of rednecks known as The Savage Brothers are only too happy to take advantage of the situation, killing the undead for good and spending their days half-drunk on the way to getting fully drunk. Things change when they tackle a particularly difficult assignment, which brings them into contact with a female captive. Can even these scoundrels become heroes?

Zombies seem like only window dressing in this darkly humorous title—they’re just there to shamble around getting killed. Artist Rafael Albuquerque appears to have used John McCrea, or maybe Mike Mignola, as inspiration.
