And now, a message from the real Darlene Bobich…
"I am a zombie aficionado. I have always loved the zombie genre. Something about them, the look, the idea that they just keep coming, the fact that you can shoot one and not worry about the consequences, has always intrigued me. For decades now I have imagined them. Coming in hordes or singularly down the road. Where would I go at that moment? What would I do? Would I really have what it took to shoot one? To bash one in the head with a rock? What if I looked up and saw my grandmother coming for my brains? A child? What just may terrify us about zombies is the fact that they represent humanity at its worst. Taking and never giving. Rotting and filling the world with stench and destruction. Perhaps thats what frightens us the most. They are us.
"Yet I still adore them. I appreciate the opportunity to read about Darlene Bobich the Zombie Killer. It gives me hope that when they do come down that road, I will be strong enough to slay them. Getting to know Armand and his particular brand of brainwaves has been an adventure on its own. I'm riveted, wanting it to go on and on, to never end. Keep me alive out there in Zombie World, Armand, it gives us all hope that we will have the strength to stand up to the hordes."
