Max Brooks recently sat down with CNN to discuss his new graphic novel, THE ZOMBIE SURVIVAL GUIDE:  RECORDED ATTACKS.  With artwork provided by Ibraim Roberson, Brooks' new endeavor will chronicle humankind's fights with zombies all the way back to the dawn of man.  The author-- a self-described "history nerd" -- even brings the war between the dead and the living to feudal Japan, for some zombies vs. ninjas action. 

 As for working with Ibraim, Brooks says, "He's head and shoulders above most people illustrating today.  The book itself is unique and I wanted a unique look. His artwork is unlike anything else I've ever seen, zombies or otherwise ... . He's so meticulous."

 Brook's previous ZOMBIE SURVIVAL GUIDE is a step-by-step procedural on how to survive the zombie apocalypse.  I've read it, and thought it was brilliant and witty in taking a different stance on undead entertainment.  Brooks' fans should look forward to his upcoming graphic novel.
