We want to thank everyone, especially Daily Dead readers, that attended the Zombies in Pop Culture panel last week at Comic-Con. Panelists Max Brooks, Matt Mogk, Steven Schlozman, Scott Kenemore, Aaron Sagers, Bradley Voytek, and Jonathan James discussed topics including zombie survivalists, the increasing popularity of zombies, and The Walking Dead. For those that weren't able to make it to Comic-Con, we have the entire panel for you to watch right now.
“Max Brooks (Zombie Survival Guide, World War Z), Matt Mogk (Zombie Research Society), Steven Schlozman (The Zombie Autopsies), Scott Kenemore (Zen of Zombie, Zombie Ohio), Aaron Sagers (Journalist and TV host), Bradley Voytek (neuroscientist), and Jonathan James (DailyDead.com) discuss why zombies are so popular today. Join this expert panel for a Q&A session covering everything from the origin of the modern zombie to the deep-rooted fears it represents.”
We want to give a big thanks to Matt Mogk for putting this panel together and we're looking forward to seeing everyone again next year at Comic-Con 2014! You can learn more about each of the panelists by visiting the links below. We'd also like to thank Alexandre Philippe and the Doc of the Dead team for the panel footage. We've covered Doc of the Dead previously and we should have much more to share on the zombie documentary early next year.
