TRANSCRIPT

SilverFoxcomicS

From the beaches of Bondi to the bright lights of Times Square, to the throne rooms of Buckingham Palace, the favelas of Rio De Janeiro, and even the The White House - Zombies are everywhere!

In Sydney, a father goes in search of his daughter with the only weapon every Aussie should have - a cricket bat signed by Donald Bradman. It smashed the Poms and it’ll smash Zombies. In Washington DC, President Obama rolls up his sleeves to get the job done and goes on the attack with ‘The Beast’ and a new presidential slogan “Yes We Can Kill Zombies”. In old London town, Princes William and Harry embark on a do-or-die battle to keep the greatest secret of the Crown safe. As they tell Princess Catherine, “She may be a Zombie, but she’s our grandmother.” In Tokyo, George Clooney starts a Zombie Infection with the food chain “I Love Eyeballs.” And from Rio De Janeiro, come face to face with the Voodoo Zombie Racer.

From the Brains Trust of Silver Fox Comics

OUT NOW at all comic book shops or at silverfoxcomics.com.au

AVAILABLE NOW through our crowd fundingcampaign at pozible.com/zombiecities

Dear Comic Book Fans,

We’re thrilled to present our fi rst FREE preview issue as

part of Free Comic Book Day 2013! In this issue, you’ll

see excerpts from our best selling graphic novel ZOMBIE

CITIES (which is out now), and our upcoming new volume

ZOMBIE CITIES VIOLENCE Vs. COMPASSION.

ZOMBIE CITIES is a collection of Zombie outbreak

stories set all over the world from Washington DC to

Paris, London, Moscow and Tokyo. It even includes the

fi rst Zombie Apocalypse story set across my hometown

Sydney! It’s got everything from horror comedy, action,

political satire, drama and even love.

Silver Fox Comics is an independent self publishing

venture based in Sydney, Australia by Sorab Del Rio and

Don Ticchio. We both work full time in marketing, graphic

design, product development and work on Silver Fox

Comics after hours and any spare minute possible.

In the past, we've worked on Aussie Comics such as

Issue One, Skunge NYPD and Southern Aurora Presents.

In 2010, we formed Silver Fox Comics and debuted

with 2 new original issues for the legendary pulp fi ction

character Zorro. Sorab became the fi rst Australian writer

to write for Zorro in 2011 and in his day job works on the

new line of Phantom merchandise. Our next release was

our fi rst original creator owned graphic novel collection,

ZOMBIE CITIES.

Our Crowd Funding Campaign

Now we are looking to release the second volume, ZOMBIE

CITIES VIOLENCE Vs. COMPASSION.

This is where we need your help. We’re hoping to raise

funding to assist with printing costs.

We'd like to invite you to join us on www.facebook.com/

silverfoxcomics and view our crowd funding campaign on

www.pozible.com/zombiecities where you can pre-order

the new volume and a host of fantastic rewards. You can

see our online video where we discuss the project and see

a crazy comedy skit where Sorab asks a Zombie Girl out

on a date!

Kind Regards and as we always say

“Brains are Delicious”.

Don’t do it! Don’t go! She said she’s okay, she’ll

be home any minute.

I’m not worried

about her!

I’m worried about you because you’re going to do something stupid, like fight these

ZOMBIES!

Don’t be stupid! Get outta the way woman!

I’m going to find our daughter.

Yeah its freakin’ awesome and now I’m

gonna crack me some zombies for real! Now where’s that cricket helmet? You didn’t sell that did you?

You retard! You kids should get out of the house more!

Dad, have you been playing my

Rising Dead game?

I got it dad, get Shelly to film it and we’re putting

it on YouTube

Well you could always

take theBradman

Bat!

No not the Bradman Bat, that’s signed by the Don himself.

Son where’s your cricket

bat?

No one hit them like the

Don!

Be worth even more once

I’m finished with it, it smashed the Poms, and now it’ll smash

some zombies!

Your Dad gave that to

you, it’s worth a fortune.

Sorry Dad, I sold it to buy Guitar

Hero!

Look I know what you’ve been up to at night time. But

this isn’t a video game!

An excerpt from Zombie Cities; Sydney

Dad, I’m on the last carriage. I’m hiding behind a seat and he’s right here

in the carriage eating someone..

He’s behind the first seat.

There were a few of them, they’re

on the other carriages.

Dad!

Michelle?

You all right sweety?

Dad why are you carrying a cricket

bat and helmet? What are you up to?

Lets go!

Thanks for coming to

get me Dad.

I had to, Shelly! So where’s thezombies in

here??

Hello there Ugly! Don’t you stick out like a pair of dogs

balls!

Don’t worry Shelly, this

shouldn’t take long.

Come on Shelly, it’s not like that.

A bloke’s gotta have some chips with his

burger!

What shouldn’t take long? Oh My God, now I understand! Did you come down for

me or to fight Zombies?!

Now I want you to film this on your phone. We’re gonna post this on YouTube and your Dad’s

gonna make some money killing zombies!

All right, you F$#%@*s come-on! Give me your best

shot!

This one looks like a wild bouncer

But he’s smashed it for six! That’s a classic text book hook shot!

He goes again, a brilliant straight drive up the wicket!

To be continued...

Comrade, are you ready? The target is

in sight.

Now go Comrade Gorbachev, do not

be afraid.

Do this for Mother

Russia and bring us back our

glory!

On board the Russian satellite Zodka, a Russian cosmonaut prepares to enter the Gliese atmosphere. But this is no

ordinary cosmonaut!

We will be connected at all times. Listen to my

directions very carefully.

An excerpt from Zombie Cities Violence VS Compassion; Moscow & Outer Space

I must call President Putin. He said to

call him immediately as soon we reach

the target.

Are you sure? he requested the private room. He is

probably making love to his security

guards!

Comrades, we are about to make first

contact!

Neeeeiighh!!

You would think so, but it is not his security

guards he is with.

Target in sight Comrade Gorbachev. Proceed with extreme

caution.

Do not be afraid Comrade,

this is your destiny as it was with David and Goliath.

Mother Russia will be the victor!

Sorry Natayla, I must go, we meet

again soon.

Now Comrade, follow the plan.

If he accepts our gesture he will

be ours.

To be continued...

An excerpt from Zombie Cities; Washington

Sasha, I’m sorry you had

to see that. It’s just politics, dirty game sometimes, you can’t trust

anyone.

Was the Zombie a

republican dad?

Well he wasn’t a democrat.

Agent Cosby, I

don’t know how I could ever thank

you.

Well Mr President, you could

allow Cuban cigars

back into the United States?

Well I got word

that he killed the Secretary of Defence on the way in. They’re

cleaning it up now.

And of course, the 2nd Amendmentof the Constitution,

the right of the people to keep and bear arms adopted

on Dec 15, 1791!

How’s the average Joe supposed to defend his family? What

are we supposed to do?

I want to know how this Zombie got

through our security? DID ANYONE GET

hurt?

Tough one, but you got it. I miss them

as well.

You know I’m the most

powerful man on earth, leader of

the Western World, but if you weren’t here, Sasha, Bo

and I would be dead.

Same as what you always

said Mr President, education, and Yes We Can!

Barack, the country is behind you. You ready to do

this?

As ready as I’ve ever been, America needs me. It’s time Michelle!

Mr President, we’re leaving the Whitehouse. Now There’s going to be

a few bumps along the way.

Mr President, the country

awaits.

As planned the Lincoln Memorial has been safeguarded, with barbed wire for protection

against the zombies, secure entrances and passages for

the people. It’s all going according to plan.

You sure they can’t get inside

Agent Cosby? How much power we got with ‘the Beast’?

We’re as secure as a bank

vault inside here Mr President. And

don’t worry about power.

We’ve gained a few percentage points in the

polls already. The word is the people want action, but can’t define what

action is.

Agent Cosby, did the White House techs make all the

changes to ’The Beast’ as we discussed?

Well Agent Cosby, its time to unleash ’The

Beast’!

The engine is now in the back, the front bonnet interior fitted out

as specified.

Looks like the people have spoken, they want a show of

force.

Mr President they did indeed, in fact they’ve been bragging about it

all morning.

To be continued...

But the question is, is

Leroy a ZOMBIE? He was attacked in Miami and has been

in hospital for a week.

Leroy, you a zombie after what happened

in Miami?

What happened

Leroy? Are you infected?

Just one pic man, come on Leroy! Lose the

hood!

LJ will play, how you feel aboutthat? What if he is

a zombie?

Chicago Loves Leroy - zombie or not - we’re here for him! I love

you Leroy!

This may be his last match but

he is here to play and win this game for

Chicago!

How you gonna take on

Kovacs?

Leroy has done so much for

the community. I don’t care what he is. Just bring

him back to kick Kovac’s ass!

Breaking news! This just in.

Leroy Johnzon is in the house! He’s just been

released from hospital and it looks like he

will take the 4th quarter!

Let me talk on behalf of my

son Leroy.

Yes he is infected but he’s

all right for the time being. Chicago Hospital

has released him to play this final quarter

and then he goes back in.

An excerpt from Zombie Cities Violence VS Compassion; Chicago

Fellas, Leroy’s momma is

here and she wants to say something

before Leroy comes out.

You guys haven’t seen Leroy in a week, well no one has but me.

I don’t care what the hell he is. I

just wanna know he’s okay.

So fellas be

cool. Just don’t freak out.

Nah we be cool! It’s

all right Leroy come on out

Man!

Momma Johnson I grew

with up Leroy, ain’t nuthin’ gonna stop

me being on his side.

Think back to those times, remember him in that way, because I don’t know how to say this but Leroy looks a bit different

now.

He is and always

will the be the same brother you

guys know him as, and he is my son. Now I don’t know what’s happened but it’s also like he can feel and read your thoughts. He was dead for a day

then he came back and maybe he went

somewhere in-between.

Now y’all know Leroy got bit, and whatever he’s got it’s not

contagious.

Now before I bring Leroy back, I want you you guys to remember your

best moments with him.

And here is Leroy Johnson,

sport fans don’t leave your seats, this will

be a fight to the finish!

Now I think that has to be called

a foul.

But wow that is the slam

dunk of the year! Leroy has still

got the goods!
