After a successful caper chasing a gang of disembodied teen ghouls from an abandoned junior high school, paranormal investigator and legendary artist Mark Chiarello (Heroes of the Negro Leagues, Baseball 100) found himself stranded in a ghost town just on the outskirts of nowhere along with his wordsmith and fellow ghost-chaser, Kevin Somers (Meaner Than Meanest, Ben 10). There they were met by an unsettling stranger with an even more unsettling wager to stay the night in Californias most notorious haunted hotel!
In a stroke of genius (or perhaps madness), the two swiftly went to work making the ultimate tool to fight fear Alien to Zombie: An ABC Book of Monsters and Spooks! By sunrise, our heroes fears and nightmares were replaced with laughter and cheers, all thanks to the playful yet powerful hardcover book the two crafted. Its spine is bound with an elegant fabric, and its filled with 32 lush pages of charming yet chilling artwork along with almost hypnotising word-play. Alien to Zombie: An ABC Book of Monsters and Spooks brings everyones favourite creatures of the night to life like never before and in alphabetical order!
Raised by wolves, Kevin Somers learned to draw shortly after learning to bark at the moon. His hunger for adventure has taken him across a long, winding path through the vast timberlands of storytelling. The first pack he ran with was The Mighty Marvel Comics Groupfirst getting his paws wet as an editor working on Epic titles such as Akira and a variety of Moebius graphic novels. He roamed wild in comics for more than a decade, regularly producing art and color art for dozens of Marvel and DC titles, including The X-Men and various Batman limited series, as well as writing and drawing comics for the Marvel Kids line. Kevin then strayed deeper into the brambles of storytelling, illustrating and/or authoring a variety of childrens books, including Meaner Than Meanest for Disney Publishing. Kevin also has sunk his teeth in commercial and entertainment projects, doing concept development, illustration and storyboard work for places such as Hill Holiday and Nickelodeon. Kevin currently can be found scrapping away in Tinseltown, where hes a contributing writer for Man of Action Entertainment, working on a variety of boys action/adventure series such as Ben 10 & Power Players.
