TOKYO ZOMBIE GIVEAWAY CONTEST



UPDATE: THANKS FOR THE GREAT ENTRIES SO FAR! THE DEADLINE IS TONIGHT AT MIDNIGHT TO TAKE PART IN THE CONTEST!

I've been on the mend this weekend after a bout of some weird wrist pain (RSI... damn you, day job!). This week I'm being interviewed about Tokyo Zombie for two different online outlets by nifty folks. I'll post the details when they go online!

So okay-- after hooking up friends and family, I realize that I have a few extra comp copies of TOKYO ZOMBIE. I assume most of you that wanted to have already read the book (RIGHT?) but if not... here is your chance! FOR FREE!

SAME HAT'S TOKYO ZOMBIE GIVEAWAY CONTEST THINGY WHERE I SEND YOU A FREE COPY!
(or the SHTZGCTWISYAFC, for short)



I was trying to think of a way to make it fair, non-idiotic and flexible. My favorite contests are the ones where seeing the entries alone is fun for everyone. With that in mind, here goes:

1) Starting NOW until FRIDAY at MIDNIGHT, PST-- you can post here to win one of two copies of TOKYO ZOMBIE.

2) The theme of the contest is BEST HOMO GRAPPLING. Here is the panel from Tokyo Zombie inspiring this contest (I swear it makes slightly more sense in context:


3) Submit the best/awesomest/funniest martial arts-related MANGA PANEL, COMICS PANEL, DRAWING, IMAGE or YOUTUBE CLIP. Submit your entry via the comments on this post (and also include your name/country)!

I'll choose the winners after the deadline, and post them Saturday morning asking for addresses over email. I'm asking for country because I'd like to ideally send at least one copy of Tokyo Zombie to someone outside the U.S.

BRING IT ON!

If anyone's up for a real challenge, I suggest trying to work something into this http://www.cagepotato.com/2008/09/09/photo-of-the-day-monson-vs-the-man/

starring the unforgettable Jeff Monson http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeff_Monson
The fighter who walked down to a UFC fight to John Lennon's "Imagine"

Re-read the rules... I was suggesting that the Monson image was ripe for someone to clever to re-work/re-caption rather than stand on its own.
