In Honor of Last Night’s Events in “The Walking Dead”, Let’s Remember When This Actor Sent a Letter to the Comic
Last night’s premiere of “The Walking Dead” stunned and devastated audiences. There aren’t really two ways to go about it, considering who was killed off. The characters that met their demise were brutalized and mangled in ways that many horror movies wouldn’t dare attempt. And the shock of the episode wasn’t even the excessive amount of gore and viscera but rather how emotionally draining everything ended up being. When the credits rolled, there wasn’t an easy way to regain one’s breath. We just had to sit there and try to absorb everything we’d witnessed.
Many of you knew what was coming, especially since it was foretold in the comics. But what many of you might not realize is that one of the actors who was murdered last night actually sent a letter to the editors of the comic mourning his passing while also promising a swift revenge!
I won’t spoil it for anybody who hasn’t yet watched the episode but if you want to get a good chuckle out of all this misery and pain, it’s worth coming back and giving this a read once you’re done.

‘Curse of the Where Wolf’ Bites Into August Release With Trio of Werewolf Theatrical Screenings [Exclusive Preview]
Larry Chaney‘s hairy misadventures are continuing in the sequel graphic novel Curse of the Where Wolf from creative team Rob Saucedo, Debora Lancianese, and Jack Morelli, and its author is celebrating with a trio of horror’s greatest werewolf films.
The Curse of the Where Wolf hits shelves on August 7 from Encyclopocalypse Publications.
That coincides with the launch of a theatrical screening event in Houston, Texas, featuring a trio of seminal werewolf flicks turning 45 this year: The Howling on August 7, Wolfen on August 14, and An American Werewolf in London on August 21.
Each screening features a “werewolf in film” presentation as well as a book signing from Where Wolf author and River Oaks Theatre artistic director Rob Saucedo.
In the new graphic novel, “Being a werewolf sucks. Reporter Larry Chaney wanted to be a hero. Instead, he became a werewolf. Now, caught between incredible new powers and a desire to eat everything (and everyone) in sight, Larry must find a cure for his curse. Or die trying.”
“With Where Wolf, I wanted to tell a whodunit set in a furry convention, so the story was pretty contained within a very specific setting and genre. With Curse of the Where Wolf, I wanted to celebrate everything I love about the possibility of comic books. Curse of the Where Wolf is a funny book, in every sense of the phrase, but it’s also an earnest look at a person’s struggle to become a better version of themselves, especially when the alternative is to become a literal monster,” Saucedo says of Curse.
The original graphic novel was previously serialized as the first webcomic hosted on Fangoria before being collected by Encyclopocalypse Publications in 2023 and has already been optioned for film, podcast, and television development ahead of launch by producers James Fino (“The Freak Brothers” for Tubi, “Rick and Morty” for Adult Swim) and Charles Horak (First Date for Magnolia Pictures).
Expect Larry to find himself in even weirder situations in the 362-page full color sequel; Saucedo has provided Bloody Disgusting with exclusive art pages from the upcoming graphic novel that showcase lupine humor.
