The Abandoned is a really awesome graphic novel. If you havent heard of Ross Campbell and his book, Wet Moon, then sit up and take notice because when The Abandoned catches on its going to send this guys Q rating to the moon. For The Abandoned, Campbell has created the character of Rylie, the punk mohawked lesbian who just convinced her long time pen pal to move into her town. On the eve of the big move a huge hurricane hits and then everyone over a certain age dies and comes back as a flesh eating...
Yay Ross! We graduated art school together, and he is the most talented and hard-working comic artisit I've ever known. He SHOULD be MORE famous then he is.
Ross Cambpell is amazing. I'm a huge Wet Moon fan, and I might have to pick up the Abandoned now . . . (not because of the article, I swear . . .) eventhough I'm not real into Zombie stuff.
I am! I got turned onto him through Abyssal Exaulted by white wolf... I <3 Wet Moon, and I like Spooked too, the Abandoned is on my buy-it-when-I-have-money list

I love Ross Campbell so much. I got into him through his white wolf art. Anyone else a terrible gamer nerd?
I even own on of his pieces! Woo!
not to be a bitch, but it woulda been nice if the interviewer would have asked what Ross thought about some stuff relevant to this site... I read these intervews and think it just too often. C'mon, we wanna know what our geek celebs think about SuicideGirls!

mmm, true. especially ross, since the characters in wet moon are tattooed, pierced, dyed, artsy, gothy and cover a range of different body types.

grrr, i saw this set when it first went up. didnt realize that it was ross
I have a page of SPOOKED that he tried to sell me for like $25, but I refused to give him less than $100. No way was I letting him sell it that cheaply.
i bought the abandoned wet moon 1 and 2 and it was awesome i love this guy for his work and hes so talented with his art dammit charlotte ross campbell
I just saw this now. I have read Wet Moon volume 1 & 2, Abandoned, and I eve read the Hopless Savages books that feature some of his first art. He does great work. He has a book coming out on the new Minx line from DC at the end of the year. It should be reall quality work.
