A comedy webcomic featuring zombie gourmet N and [[ActionSurvivor zombie-slayer extraordinaire]] Alex. N is a zombie, and a picky eater. He goes for days after his conversion trying to find the perfect human to eat, and finally finds one in Alex. There's only one problem. He can't eat her until at least three days have passed, to confirm she isn't diseased or otherwise unhealthy, and so has to both convince her to stay with him (and not kill him) and keep her safe from other zombies who want to eat her themselves. HilarityEnsues.
