Chad Holloway, the managing editor of the popular information publication and website Poker News, has come up with a unique attention-grabber for fans at this year’s World Series of Poker, which starts later this month – a fully illustrated comic featuring poker’s biggest festival.
The World Series of Zombies combines the current fascination with back-from-the-dead zombies with tournament poker in a theme centred on a plague of zombies which takes place at the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas.
The comic will feature notable poker names like Phil Laak, Vanessa Selbst, Phil Hellmuth, Daniel Negreanu, Mike Mizrachi and Antonio Esfandiari and the publication will debut as a special limited edition at this year’s WSOP at a cost of $5, with $1.99 digital copies available now online at Comixology.com.
The artwork for the comic was created by the respected Chicago-based specialist Terry Huddlestone who does work for Big Bang Comics, Marvel and OSSM Comic’s Thaniel series.
