Hunting for Zombies & Vampires
May 26, 2009
In my hunt for news that you might like to read I stumbled upon a March 2009 Newsarama.com interview with comic book writer David Hine, discussing FVZA: Federal Vampire And Zombie Agency, his new mini series out this October from Radical Publishing.
Determined to dig to the heart of this announcement and provide meat for this post, I went further and found the source of inspiration: FVZA.org. The mission and background of the FVZA and FVZA.org may be best described in the words of the site’s founder:
Federal Vampire & Zombie Agency (FVZA),, also known as “the Vanguard,” was responsible for controlling the nation’s vampire and zombie populations while overseeing scientific research into the undead. This site is a tribute to the men and women who served in the FVZA, especially the over 4000 Agents who lost their lives fighting to keep our country safe. In addition to paying tribute to the FVZA, this site hopes to call attention to dangerous research…research that runs the risk of bringing back a scourge of vampires worse than any before. -Dr. Hugo Pecos
FVZA.org provides a host of information on zombies & vampires including identification of famous historical figures who have undergone “transformation” (did you know Ivan the Terrible and Edgar Allen Poe ultimately met their deaths as a result of having come into contact with vampires), reviews of recent incident reports, and links to other vampire and zombie hunters. You can even brush up on your hunting skills with help from the Vampire, Zombie or Werewolf Knowledge Tests.
Yummy!
