What Say You (110)
i love it! made me laughed :D
mike, you are my hero
you gotta catch em first though...
I can dig it... But the thing is... if they were to eat a brain, what happens to it? Clearly that one in the background lacks a stomach... would it fall on the ground? That'd be gross.
where do you get the brains to start with?
we would get the brains from useless people who poke obvious plot holes in web comics like yourself and sirwetbiscuit up there. Mike i think your missing something though possibly strapping a cart to them for transportation or having them run on a wheel....new cheep energy source!!!
Put them on treadmills and use as a power generator.
Finally, a decent solution for global warming AND a zombie apocalypse. Oil? Who needs oil when you've got zombies?
What happens when the zombies cross each other and get one anothers' brain?
Brilliant!
if i were a zombie like them, i would aproach another zombie and eat his brain and then he eats mine, then after were done we'd go out to hunt some will smiths
Zombies fall down a lot. It seems that one would soon discover if he laid down on his back he'd get brains.
COMMENT
The previous comments all offering "suggestions" and discussing logical problems with the picture are tantamount to telling someone a dream that you had one night and them replying with ideas of how you could have made it better.
This is why it's so often a bad idea to let people comment on posts. <sigh>
Great picture, by the way. lol
hahahahaha! Never thought I'd hear 'zombie' and 'elegant' in the same sentence...good job making me laugh.
Would the installation of the brain poles be a volunteer job? Do we still get to cut their heads off, or are the zombies considered a non-threat?
The comments to this comic are obvious proof that a lot of people think about the zombie apocalypse with genuine concern. I love it.
This would be a perfect use of the brains of politicians and extremists.
completely genius, inspiring picture
Where do you get the brains? From animals that have already been used for their meat and hide/furs.
There is the problem of how exactly you put the contraption on the zombies unless you somehow catch them first... but if you COULD catch them it may work.
Would zombies figure out how to get the brains in any of the ways mentioned? Not likely... they're brainless... [thus why they crave the brains to start with.]
The idea of the power generator, however, was an exceptionally good idea... might as well make use of the fiends while we have them around =P
Logistics aside, it was somewhat amusing. I'll have to take a look at the other comics.
billest, genius. those worthless bastards are perfect, although it's debatable whether they even have brains to harvest.
@SirWetBiscuitJr- if the brains fell on the floor,wouldnt the zombie attempt to eat the brain again. Which would mean they would just stay in one place constantly eating the same brain. lol
Firstly, I would like to say that your comic was hilarious. The inevitable zombie apocalypse (or lack thereof) is one of my favorite topics and I love these kinds of things and you just made my bookmarks, good sir.
Secondly, I agree with the treadmill idea, that would be a big help in the energy crisis that all the survivors would be facing, if the technology would still be around. You could also have people serving out death sentences in prison do the work of applying the contraptions to the zombies for you and the brains could be salvaged from other heavy criminals. The inmates would have a choice of donating their brain (FOR SCIENCE) or having the very dangerous job of attaching brains-on-a-string to the zombies.
@SS, ciucinciu, and Raikus
It is typically accepted that zombies lack common sense, they wouldn't realize that would be an easier alternative. Then again, their hunger for brains could overpower that and compell them to eat the others' brains.
@SirWetBuscuitJr. is on to something of sheer genius. It would deter from the idea of using the zombies as a slave laboring power source, but it would keep the zombies more occupied.
Chris Ellis, what a wonderful analysis.
Wonderful idea for politicians !!! :-)
Google "Seattle Zombie Walk 2009" and you'll see this in action. :)
That would work great until they did that grouping together zombies eventually do and then they would start eating the other zombies brains-on-a-stick.
Awesome!
This is absoulutely hilarious! Brilliant. You should patent it, LOL!
wow this is roflmao!!!! Totallly agree with chad,you should patent it!!!LOL!!!!
zombies feed on living human flesh, this would never work
Hehe. There goes the plot for all zombie movies and games. No guns required, just a brain, stick and rope.
I hear ya SS. This can't work - they'll eventually cross paths with another zombie and maybe choose to eat that zombie's hanging brain, thereby removing his preoccupation and freeing him to chase the brains of humans once again!!!! muuuuwahahahahha
Wow...how the Hell did they get the sticks on their heads?!
Why do they have to be real brains? Maybe they could be brain shaped explosives that go off if the zombies eat them?
tit!
what about vegetarian zombies?
This strategy seems to lack one thing, that is : one zombie would attack the bait of an other zombie, and then we woill be back to the begining
If you could catch & attach that brain-hook for zobies. You could killed them. They dont attach them selves.
That isn't ellegant. Plus where are you going to get all the brains? humans, so you would kill all the people the zombies were going to eat anyways.
Best solution ever!
It's possible that the zombies could become enraged at the thought of not being able to get their own brains so they might lash out at other zombies, trying to steal their brains. Depending on the nature of the zombie, he/she may be territorial and start fighting for its unattainable brain making for either a good arena sport or a good television show for survivors.
WAIT A MINUTE suppose one zombie were to eat another zombies "bait" as it were. It would be back to normal :/
They wouldn't go for it, zombies don't eat dead flesh.
ZOMG, I just totally worked something out...
What if -- just, what if...
...one of the zombies started eating another zombie's brain? Then they'd, uh, start coming after our brains and it would go back to how it was before...
Zombie's like fresh meat.
But this is nevertheless great.
wow dumb
Epic win.
Hahah nice one!
cool lol rely funny
if there were zombies, how would you get the stick on their back?
Even better, make the brain reachable with a pressure sensitive explosive embedded so that when they bite down, well....that would be a PERMANENT solution!
but them all in a big circular box so they have to run in circle while they chase their brains.
ELEGANT SOLUTION !!!! THATS VERY FUNNY STUFF,I LIKE THE WAY YOU THINK!!!
ha ha ha soooooo funny ad a great sulloution to stop em from eatin r brains even thoghue they arnt real
hot zombie sex
um i thought that zombies only liked fresh brains from non-zombie humans.... Aren't they smarter than that.
cute comic though :)
i love that pic its now my background
pretty sure they would just eat each others brains-on-strings?
Great :)
Flawless plan until the zombies learn to lay down....... DAMN IT back to the drawing board...
i bet they could reach if they REALLY tried hard
i ejaculated in my pants a little bit when i saw this... im sure they could reach it if they really laugh hard and jizz in their pantalones
Brains on a stick? Om nom nom nom
Everyone needs to calm down...this isn't real but if this ever did happen...it would be jokes! It's just cute and funny!
HAHAHAHA I love it!
HAHAHAHA I love it!
They wouldn't be able to see each other's brain on a stick if they were mostly boxed around exept for the side that is facing them.
mi only question is: Who attach the brain to the Zombie???
I've always wondered why zombies went after brain matter in the first place...
The buttocks obviously contains more meat.
Why don't we have vegetarian zombies that hunger for tofu or carrots or something?
Damn zombies got into my cabbages again...
the next problem is where to get all that brains
lol Zombies Elegant? :O wow me lieks this :D haah and if u think abotu it we already have zombies in RL
Lol!!!!!!!
i hnestly dont no why the fuck all thismatters. its a god damn cartoon. this isnt a fucking episode of Lost, dumbasses
Even If you had their heads boxed in so the majority of stick brains did not come into view, you would still need some sort of brain detection device that can predict if a stick brain is about to come into view, and that could then activate one of two prods that have previously been inserted into the zombies rectum by criminals such as pedophiles. Left cheek for turn left and right cheek for turn right, Whichever is appropriate depending on the direction the stick brain is coming from. Not sure if you could use criminals for the actual "turn" training though as they may be irresponsible and the next minute we will have hoards of untrained zombies turning left when it should have been right.
Cute. This would only work in Return of the Living Dead, though, that's the only zombie flick where they ate brains exclusively. Actually, scratch that.. it wouldn't work there either, since those were the "smart" zombies that could talk and reason and would probably figure out a way to get em off the rope. Still cute though.
I thought this comic was really cute and it made me chuckle ... But reading the comments was hilarious-- and yet a little disturbing at the same time. Lighten up people. For those who apparently believe in a zombie envasion- I am willing to bet we are going to be so screwed that we will need to have a more comprehensive plan than a comic, so relax and enjoy it for what it is! Life is too short to be so serious--- after all, the zombies are coming!
aHAHAHAHAHAHA genius .
They would eat each others brains
i loled
this is tottaly amazing. children should be taught this at school! hahahahaha
this is funny but it does beg the question whos brains would those be? and everyone knows aside from the typical heroic idiots that if zombies where to make an appearance everyone would be too scared to approach them for fear of becoming one of them
to-Scottie Cunningham
well you see vegetarian Zombies eat Grains.
GRAINS... BRAINS. easy to mix up

Brilliant!
its so funny! it made me lol!
To fix the zombie laying down to eat the brain problem u could just use a stick or metal(something stiff) to replace the string so when they lay down it just stays there also the brain is attached by stabbing it into the metal/stick
haha now just how to get the brains attached to them...
I am so sick of this zombie fad.
Eat brains, get smart
yo u must be a muthafukin pohead 2 do som shit lik dis i no u was hi wen u thought bout dis .hahahahahah lol
Hey...
I wonder if this works... LOVED IT!!!!
OH and this person above me USE CORRECT GRAMMAR!!!! its not that hard
*it's
put them on treadmills and supply the world with energy!
put them on treadmills and supply the world with energy!
awesome!
You could just bury dead people with the sicks/brains attached... That's how I'm arranging my funeral now. And you, author, have the honor of attaching my stick/brain.
If you can catch them to put that stuff on them, then why don't you just annihilate them instead?
Ha Ha I love it. Brilliant work
WOW!?!? BRIANZZZZ!!!
Very nice site!
It says "leave some love" above the commenting area...most peope didn't...it's a cartoon guys/girls...it's suppose to be funny, which it is whether it makes sense or not...like in the Road Runner...it doesn't make sense that a genius coyoty (however you spell it) that understands physics, math, etc. can't catch this retarded bird that just says "meep meep" and how the coyote doesn't die when it falls 60m. Elmo shouldn't be able to talk...his tongue cant move...it's funny and that's what peope want...most people...
Why are some of you ppl so critical? It says leave some love above where u comment...dont see a lout of it guys and girls... This is just a funny cartoon. Cartoons don't have to be realistic, just funny. Like it doesn't make sense that this genius coyote can't catch this retarded roadrunner bird that just says "beep beep." But its funny so people except it and th

I can't believe the semmur is gone and it's almost time for Halloween again already. The stores are filled with the stuff and I guess it is time for a Halloween song. It must be hard to post a song each week, that's a lot to keep up with. Zombies are definitely appropriate for Halloween time.
wow
How would you attach these sticks, strings, and brains to the zombie in the first place? I feel like instead of taking the time to do all that one could probably just bash its brains in. I'm sorry for being critical but this is just a zombie apocalypse enthusiast. To me this comic is silly. But then again I never know what the fuck I'm talking about.
