We recently had a chance to speak to our friend Jimmy Palmiotti of DC's Jonah Hex fame and showed him an advance preview of the INFESTACION: THE MYTHOLOGY graphic novel and here's what he had to say:
"Filled with more guts and heartbreak than a butcher-shop in a vegan neighborhood. this is a prime example of a lot of different creators having a blast and making some truly horrific comics that make me smile. its worth it for the energy alone. " - Jimmy Palmiotti

ABOUT THE GRAPHIC NOVEL:
INFESTACIÓN: THE MYTHOLOGY is a ground breaking graphic novel set on the border between Mexico (Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua) and the United States (El Paso, Texas), where a zombie plague has taken over both cities and all they have to survive is each other. A border that has now become one between life and death, or un-death.
This area is very conducive to this type of story because it plays on all the fears that we as a people have living in this part of the country. The borders, the different races, the traditions, the growing threat of violence, the land itself, were in the middle of a desert here where all we have is each other, but how can we trust one another if we fail to accept the differences we all have?
Of course, its all there, the racial tension, the problems that Chicanos, and Hispanics, and Mexican Americans have fitting in. we also have the social commentary in the form of how we are all separated by these silly social classes that make no sense, how we choose to separate our selves and subjugate our own people, because of our own fear of each other. We dont know our neighbor, so well keep him at arms length, but as soon as he turns into a zombie, you know who well be putting a bullet into their heads at a moments notice!
