Geek Culture, Zombies... and Other Monsters

Author Ralph Damato

Ralph is the Senior Correspondent at Zombies In My Blog who has an almost 30-year love affair with comic books, yet it doesn't decrease his love for Hollywood's latest deluge of superhero films. He grew up in the cathode tube light of video game arcades of the '80s, the decade's cartoons and music is etched into his DNA. For fun, he watches YouTube collections of '80s commercials or Bob Barker-hosted Price is Right episodes. And he still plays first edition Dungeons and Dragons every other week. He even named his children after characters in Neil Gaiman books. The geek is strong with this one!
