Pink Zombie Rose is definitely as cool as it sounds. Upon my first introduction to this trippy comic series, I became a passenger on a crazy train and was taken for a wild ride. PZR is truly unique and unclassifiable. These stories have everything even a closeted weirdo could ask for, and then some. At times downright absurd, Dia somehow keeps the PZR series cohesive with well-developed yet constantly evolving characters, and one-of-a-kind mind-bending and intriguing narratives. Pink Zombie Rose doesn't just cross genres, it smashes them together on a canvas like a Jackson Pollock painting. The phantasmagoric text is expertly captured by amazing illustrations that bring each page to another level of existence. This surreal series crawled out of the sewers eager to infect you with feral dreams, kinky fantasies, existential crises, and a monstrous hunger for more.
