Dunno what the official stand on links to other strips is, but this is a concept that just has to be spread!

Imagine the trouble a certain fox boy could get into if he had access to this!

No, that's one of the few ways you CAN defeat the undead!

Shoot in body with pointy, go-right-thru-decaying-flesh bullets? nope.

You gotta either dismember them, or shoot the head clean off. It might not stop without its head, but it won't be able to see you, and thusly can't try to EAT/KILL/ZOMBIFY you.

Burning.. dude the undead, like, cool undead, would blow up or not burn, depending.

*reaches for neighbor's hammerspace*

Neighbor: KEeP YOUR HAND AWAY FROM THERE! *smack*

Zombie: uurruuUUuuurGGggGgaa?ARUuUUUaAaggrah!

Translation: Would somebody be so kind as to get this crazy man off of me? Thank you kindly.

If I keep it up he might die of shame. That's another way to kill zombies, but it only works on hypothetical ones.:D

if the undead are truely undead, then the eyes don't work anyway and whatever forces are causing it to rise from the grave are also the forces driving and directing it, thus the head is useless to it... I think.

if this thread is undead then yes the head is getting totally unused. :D

Eh eh eh! You're trying to apply logic to zombies! Zombies =/= logical.

Thus, their eyes are impervious to your attacks.

Either way, they're just a helluva lot less scary without their heads.

I guess it really depends on what kind of zombies we're talking about. Your zombies might be impervious to decapitation.

The zombies I think of is a dead person who just didn't stop for some reason and has begun to rot, or a dead person who was brought back to life but with a rotting body.

I like Remus Shepherd's explanation of zombies.

That kind would be incapacitated by loss-of-head.

Questorverse zombies, on the other hand, are something of an amalgamation of ALL the various zombie legends.

A questorverse zombie is created when a "voodoo priest" feeds their victim a special concoction known, inaccurately, as "zombie cucumber." This first causes the victim to slip into a deathlike coma. The perpetrator then digs up the "deceased" and revives him... keeping him fed on a diluted version of the cucumber to maintain control of him.

The Zombie Cucumber keeps the victim passive and lacking in free will. It also makes them tireless, incapable of feeling pain or fear, and disturbingly strong. However, between the inability to feel injury or weariness and the damaging effect of the cucumber itself, the victim slowly accumulates unhealed wounds and infections, till they are literally rotting to death...

The enslaving effects of Zombie Cucumber can be almost immediately reversed by forcing the zombie to ingest salt. If it is administered in time---before physical deterioration has set in--- the victim regains full consciousness almost immediately and makes a complete recovery. If not, the former zombie, braindamaged and (when the anaesthetic effects of the cucumber wear off) in indescribable agony from its deteriorated physical state, goes berserk....
