P.M.A.C.: When Zombies Attack!! The Comic Book Adaptation In late 2004, Grimm Grotto Goods and Creative Talent Communications, Inc. commissioned comic book artist Jim Mahfood to adapt the characters of P.M.A.C.: When Zombies Attack!! into a comic book format. This graphically illustrated story would chronicle the beginnings of Officer Frank Hadely's paranormal clean-up crew: the Post Mortem Animation Control (P.M.A.C.). Written by creators Matt Rose and Chad Waters, and featuring a cover by Mike Huddleston, the first issue, entitled "Don't Shoot The Messenger" was released in July of 2005. What follows are exclusive sketches, line drawings and exerpts from the comic book, as well as a few photos of the process itself.
