The Comic Book Bin reviews
Chaos Campus #1:
The girls of Epsilon Alpha Zeta Upsilon (EAZY) are having a kegger, but some of the girls can’t have any fun because the men in their lives are jerks. However, Jaime Schaeffer, Paige Patton, and Brittany Miller, are about to have even bigger problems. When a beer run brings the undead infection into the EAZY sorority house, the worse boyfriend alive becomes the worse boyfriend who wants to eat Paige alive. In “Dead Man on Campus” (Part 1 of 2), it is one of the girls who is about to become (un)dead.
Writer, comic book creator, publisher, and entrepreneur, Thompson has written a lot of comic books. Along the long way of creating and writing so many comic books, Thompson has improved as a storyteller, sharpening his skills with each individual short story and comic book. With Chaos Campus Sorority Girls vs. Zombies #1, Thompson has polished his skills to a high sheen. This is thoroughly enjoyable comic horror, but what makes this such a good read is not parodying zombies. It’s the witty banter and the snappy dialogue which captures the rhythm of a house full of raucous 20-somethings. The art and colors by the team of Christian Duce and Martin Coccolo is high quality stuff; they're ready for the big leagues.
If Thompson keeps the sassy, ghetto Greek chorus, this will be a series worth revisiting time and time again.
