Troy Brownfield is a longtime comics fan, who’s also done things like using them to teach in his English classes and reviewing them as the former chief of Newsarama’s Best Shots team (he’s also been known to contribute here from time to time).These days, he’s primarily devoted to writing comics and recently added another webcomic to his busy schedule. By way of catching up with Brownfield, we asked what he was actually up to, all told, and got the following checklist back…Zombies: The Cursed, part of Zenescope’s UNLEASHED event.Zombies #1 came out a couple of weeks ago, and it’s now available on Comixology as well. The Zombies mini focuses on Elijah, one of the hunters that was introduced earlier in Unleashed. Like the other hunters, Elijah’s story really begins in the 1800s; unlike the others, Elijah was an escaped slave. He’s burdened with this trauma and heartbreak that comes out of his past, and his mission in the present ties into this pervasive sense of guilt and duty that’s become ingrained in him over the years. The mini is drawn by Oscar Celestini; he’s from Italy and he’s done an incredible job on this book. He did all three issues, too, which I think is worthy of note.
