[DL] Comics sources

<Being that I work in a comic book store, I feel I can
authoratatively tell you that "One Shot" is the only
licensed comic book based on Deadlands that has been
published.
However, in my looking through the store's collection
of back issues and stuff I can point you in the
direction of at least one comic that has some DLs
appeal. Look for a special edition of "Deathblow" (a
one-shot story) set in the late 1800s. Its a western
and there were an aweful lot of zombies runnin'
around. I didn't actually get a chance to read it but
old west, gunfights, and zombies seemed very
Deadlandesque.>
You could also try two Graphic Novels I stumbled across very much by
accident, The first called Desperados the second Infestations, which follow
the adventures of a posse of four, an ex-pinkerton, an ex-ranger, a soiled
dove and former outlaw, they are not fantastic, the story premises are
promising, though they are often let down by the dialogue and characters
seem to respond somewhat inconsistently, the main story in Desperados is the
only thing that I would recommend and I'm probably going to convert into an
adventure for my boys to run through, the instigator is a serial killer with
an unusual and somewhat diabolic motive. Has anyone else seen these books or
am I the only on who's come across them.
