Zombie Talk, with your host Mozgus.

Post by Mozgus »

Lets begin with something I observed today. Zombies rot. This is true. Their bodies deteriorate, but why do they always have a full set of teeth? I don't think I've ever seen a zombie that is missing teeth. You would think teeth would fall out sooner than some of the other visible damage your average zombie showcases. Very strange. But I suppose teeth are a zombie's only true weapon, unless it's a Crimson Head. How else are they going to bite you? Maybe dentures...

Anyways, find me a picture of a toothless zombie. It'll totally blow my mind right now.

Considering zombies never seem to degcompose equally around the body, I'm sure that some of them have perfectly good teeth. Considering sometimes they have no teeth and sometimes they some teeth and sometimes they have all teeth, it merely has to do with the conditions they are put under during the decomposition before zombification. Of course the zombies decompose after zombification, they wouldn't do so as much, considering they aren't in an ideal situation for decomposition, especially because of the fresh supply of brains and flesh.

I think a more important question is why Spider-Man's silk comes out of his wrists...

Because actually his silk only comes out of his wrist in the movies. As for the comic book series he actually uses a synthetic silk in a cartridge shot out by some projectile machine... he actually didn't get the silk stuff from the mutation.

Although in more recent comics (in the last few years) they've made the silk biological, along with more super powers added to his ensemble.

But those purists out there will deem to say this does not meet what they call... cannon... I think that is the word.

and damnit venom comes from the Secret Wars!
I still have the issue where he got the symbiote, in my collection back at my parents house heh
ultimate series has pretty much thrown out all the old canon and rehashed all the good comic ideas from the last 40 years.

oh well, bottom fell out of comic collecting with ebay, and I got interested in other stuff... ahh the memories tho

I don't quite understand this statement.

I must say though I will not be continueing with any further debate of Spiderman, as that comment there is about the extent of my Spiderman knowledge... excluding the 'Maximum Carnage' video game on the Genesis; killer fun game.

I'm saying, we were discussing the nonsensical aspects of zombies, an area of geekage. But you brought in a new a new area; Spider-Man. So surely, someone will bring Star Wars into the mix, since the thread derailed so badly.
