Description Finished cover to the "Hack/Slash Meets Zombies Vs. Cheerleaders" by Moonstone.

I think the only way I can possibly top this combination of team-up awesomeness is with a cover to the Danger Girl Meets Army Of Darkness series coming out in April, but I'm not holding my breath. This cover was a lot of fun to draw, and Sanju simply kicked it's ass with his coloring skills. Be sure to stop by his gallery and check out the rest of his work you'll be glad you did.

Pencils: Me (Mike DeBalfo)
Colors: Sanju Nivangune

hahaha. It's about time someone commented on that! I noticed that too at first but I had to let it slide. I imaging that's what zombie gonorrhea looks like and that's just funny.

I'm no expert at Zombie biology, and i know they're pretty flimsy, but how did Miss Hack manage to shove a bat through the zombie's head?

hey Mike loved the limited edition cover of red lying down. I saw a couple pick it up from Jays Comics at Frank and Sons for a pretty penny. They will be looking to get it signed by you. They asked me if I knew you I said yes through deviant. I sent them your way on deviant. They bought all the covers and are getting them framed. Really cool couple..

Wait till you see the next cover.. Its really cool. Just got it approved. There are two of them. One naughty and one nice. I armed Red to the teeth...

Hey loved the new zombie cover too.. I like Ralph, great guy. I am just happy to do some stuff professionally. Its a nice change from the corporate Creative Direction I work on. Kind of boring when compared to Hot chicks and swords. Hey are you in Arizona or California? I go to an event at Frank and Sons Comics to do signings when there's a big event there. I talked to Bill from J comics. He's a big fan of yours and Zene. If your local let me know I can get you in. I did really well the last two times. Hey I sent you the lastest cover in your yahoo.. take a look let me know what you think... Lots of detail

Thanks, man! Keep up the good work, you have some nice skills.

I live in they Phoenix area so Cali signings are a bit of a drive. Jimmy and Bill threw an awesome new show here in January you should try to get in on it next year. Also we have the Phoenix comic con, which would be cool to see you at, if you could make it that is.

I got your email, those covers look cool, man. Did you get my reply, I hadn't heard back?

Hey Mike..

Sorry got really busy at work.. (damn real job we are working on some Wikileaks things, been busy with the kids from DC, they're still pissed about it)

I think my file was saved as a low rez jpg.. Will send good one later.. Bill liked my work and invited me to the next one. Nice guy... Big fan of yours. I got my cover today in PDF so now I can apply to Comic-cons as a pro. When's the Phoneix con.

Thanks for kudos. Love your work too... What you working on now?

Tell me about it. Everyday I wake up half wishing to get fired from my day job just to get the leap over with. Haha.

The Phoenix con is the end of May. Memorial day weekend to be more exact. It's a great show if you can make it.

Right now I'm working on an exclusive for a store signing here in Phoenix. One pf the local shops I frequent is flying the big wigs from Zene out so the owner is paying for a 500 copy exlusive for the event!
