Fortnightly Webcomic Update
http://www.donaldscrankshaw.com/posts/1194929236.shtml


   [1]Sluggy Freelance -- Zombie storytime! Gwynn's in trouble with
   zombies. It turns out that her co-worker Jane at the zombie themed
   restaurant "Zomblebee's" is a real zombie. Gwynn's been sent to tell
   her she's fired, which Jane doesn't take too well. One of her minions
   bites Gwynn, which might be a problem, as zombie-dom appears to be an
   infection. Then we see that while Gwynn's lost most of her hair due to
   camel Zoe, Gwynn then magicked off all of Zoe's hair. Neither of them
   are happy, but after talking it out, they make up, just in time for
   the guys to return and witness the severe hair troubles.
   [2]Day by Day -- Jan, Damon, and Zed arrive home to be greeted by the
   very pregnant Sam. Then it's back to politics, with Hillary's debate
   troubles getting center stage. But that's not enough to distract from
   Zed meeting Sam's mother, and finding out that his wife is younger
   than he thought.
   [3]Scary Go Round -- Ryan, Esther, and the boy pull off a light show
   to scare the ghost off. Ghostbusting's not for the feint of heart.
   Then the offices of Conde Nast Traveller is busy producing a travel
   guide for the really snooty. They wish to hire the meanest of
   freelance writers to cover Christmas Island, Shelby Winner. A slight
   miscommunication and some loud banging results in Shelley Winters
   being hired instead.
   [4]Dominic Deegan -- With one victory under his belt, Milov needs to
   go to the Moon Dance and restore his family's honor. You can see he
   wants to make up with Jayden, but he can't. Dominic, meanwhile, is
   exhausted, and is trying to recover his strength so he can help. So at
   the Moon Dance, Milov announces that he will drive the Callanian
   influence from his lands, starting with the Luanian church. Yikes. He
   defends Nimmel, however, arguing that he's shown true loyalty.
   [5]College Roomies from Hell!!! -- Blue starts to offer Dave a chance
   to break up with her, but he offers her a kitten instead to talk her
   out of it. Dave's happy, but he comes home to find a big problem with
   Marsha about to jump off the roof. He tries to talk her down while
   Margaret tackles her, but he's too late, and Marsha leaps--to ride
   Sticky out of sight. That is just too weird, and it's enough for
   Margaret to decide that NOES isn't working out. Roger's gone, Marsha's
   gone, and Dave's hardly the most reliable member. What's the point
   anymore?
   [6]Schlock Mercenary -- Xinchub's body is up and moving again, but
   fortunately TAG has it under control. It turns out that Xinchub had
   the same nanite treatment as Kevyn, and he's looking to escape. He
   hasn't gotten very far, however. Tagon renegotiates his deal with
   Ambassador Breya--charging a bit extra to bring in a living specimen.
   Then when Kevyn suggests that they may be able to figure out what
   Petey wants Xinchub for and sell the information to a third party,
   Tagon takes a detour while they figure out how to milk a fifth payment
   out of the job.
