“Having already feasted on Abraham Lincoln and Jane Austen, zombie lit turns its teeth on the Beatles with Alan Goldsher's graphic novel Paul Is Undead. So much brains can be rough on readers' bellies, but before you shotgun down Paul, consider its pedigree: Goldsher has written several fine novels (Jam, Today's Special) and music bios (Modest Mouse: A Pretty Good Read, the Art Blakey critical study Hard Bop Academy); and Chicago-based artist Jeffrey Brown has been featured in McSweeney's and the Best American Comics series. The book — in which a ninja Ringo and walking-dead versions of the remaining Fab Four battle zombie-hunter Mick Jagger — was grabbed by Hollywood before it was even published. Enjoy the original — and get all the gory, development details — at today's reading.”
