Sun-powered, plant-driven speedsters take on imp-powered, zombie-driven hot rods! Let the races begin! Crazy Dave faces the incredibly tough Don’t Blink videogame–and he also challenges Dr. Zomboss to a series of contests to determine the future of Neighborville! The car-filled competition is underway, and Crazy Dave and Dr. Zomboss are neck and neck! Paul Tobin (Bandette, The Witcher) and Ron Chan (Star Wars, The Guild) return to deliver another hilarious zombie battle to your burg! Collects Plants vs. Zombies comics 7 to 9. PopCap’s immensely popular Plants vs. Zombies game gets another serving of hilarious, plant-filled, zombie-zapping comics! These durable, value-priced hardcovers are aimed at game players of all ages! Praise for previous volumes of the Dark Horse Plants vs. Zombies series: This is one of the more fun video game adaptations that I’ve read . . . -Front Towards GamerThis witty comedic tale with delightful art and rich colors definitely does justice for what started out as a tower defense game. Impressive. -Comic Crusaders It has light-hearted humor and makes the characters of the video game even more interesting. -Nuke the Fridge Capturing the tone of the game perfectly, this team brings the madcap of Popcap to brilliant life and imagination, with all the humor, wit, and ice cream you could hope for. -Fanboy Comics
