Leading off the pack this week is some cool shit. I'm greatly anticipating the upcoming film based on the novel World War Z. If you haven't read it, yank out a nose hair as punishment and go get yourself a copy. Anyway, I was greeted by the following coolness on Tuesday: concept art has been released. Check it out!
Thanks for the heads up, Sya!
Publisher Chronicle Books has announced a new title in their line-up:
From the publisher's Web site:
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies features the original text of Jane Austen's beloved novel with all-new scenes of bone-crunching zombie action.

Feisty heroine Elizabeth Bennet is determined to wipe out the zombie menace, but she's soon distracted by the arrival of the haughty and arrogant Mr. Darcy.

This book is exactly like that except with zombies and I actually get laid!
