And no, we don't mean "Talking Dead."
The series, according to AMC and executive producers including the show and comic's creator, Robert Kirkman, will explore another corner of the universe created by the television series and be wholly independent from the comic books. That means no adaptations and no characters plucked from the pages. It'll be a clean slate and live and breathe (and/or shuffle by groaning for brains) on its own.
The air is cooler and the leaves are about to change, which can mean only one thing: it’s time for us to lock ourselves inside our homes and refuse to leave!
Check it out!
AND THEY ARE: Alpha House, Betas, Annebots, Creative Galaxy, and Tumbleleaf.

Anonymous asked you: For Eugene: Hi, Eugene! As far as I know you were raised in an immigrant Jewish family. In the USSR Jewish people were known by their unique sense of humor (Odessa-city humor for instance). Were you influenced by this tradition? Thank you! - Rusty
I grew up in a family with a great sense of humor, but we were from Moscow, where the comedy tradition is mostly about avoiding being captured and sent to Siberia. So, I don’t know that I was influenced by that specifically. But I do love the Odessa Steps Sequence in Battleship Potemkin. Makes me laugh every time! Plus, that’s why I do so much montage humor today.
awriterindetox asked you: What would it take to get you to perform at my 31st birthday party?
Depending who and where you are, probably between $15000 and $30000. Not because that is what someone should pay me, but the idea of performing at a birthday sounds terrible. But, if afterwards I could buy part of a house, it would maybe be worth it? Plus, what if the show went okay?
Anonymous asked you: Eugene, have you ever asked them let you draw Gene for a entire episode of Bob’s Burgers? That would be groundbreaking stuff…
I have not. I don’t know that it would be groundbreaking, since other performers have maybe drawn stuff before, but it would definitely look terrible, so that would be nice.
jenremauro asked you: For Eugene; Where do babies come from?
When a man cums inside a woman (in her “normal zone”), if she is fertile, a baby will grow inside her. That’s what it implies in Cosmo at least.
germz-comics asked you: When will you be in vegas ??
No plans now, but maybe next time I’m on tour.
Anonymous asked you: Eugene, if you were an unconventional superhero (not the usual Marvel/DC powers), what would your powers be and what would you fight?
I would probably be like the superhero Superior or someone out of Astro City. But to distinguish myself from the traditional Marvel/ DC superhero, I would talk about the Velvet Underground and how I like pre-1978 Jethro Tull. Still, I’d probably fly and stuff. Maybe I’d have gadgets too.
That’s it for this edition of Ask a Professional Comedian. A big, sincere thanks to Eugene Mirman and to all of you who sent in questions!

Phil Jimenez’s JLA/Transformers crossover Pitch
DC comic artist Phil Phil Jimenez has revealed a couple images of the Justice League/Transformers crossover that new come to fruition. The crossover would have had Wonder Woman’s invisible jet turning into a lady transformer, The Batwing turning into a massive Autobot warrior and Optimus Prime getting his own Green Lantern ring. Even if this crossover never happened, these pieces of teaser art are amazing.
Okay, Optimus Prime with a Green Lantern ring? UBER GEEOKOUT
…and it’s “S.H.I.E.L.D.” Whedon will co-write the series and is in talks to direct the pilot.
