PU Presents Dead Zed Zombie: Episode 1, Season 4
Dead Zed Zombie in Scary Sista!

Happy Halloween all you ghouls and fools! The gang from Pittsburgh Underground would never forget you on the best holiday of the year!

One of the biggest questions that the gang here at good ol' PU gets is does Dead Zed Zombie have a girlfriend, let alone why don't we ever see any female characters on the Dead Zed Zombie Show?

The short answer is when is the last time you met lovely lady floating around in the sewer? (and no, Saturday nights in any of our three rivers doesn't count).

With that, we wanted to bring you a very spooky Halloween special - Dead Zed Zombie in Scary Sista! Trust us, you may want to view this one with the lights on (it gave us nightmares just putting it together!).

So sit back, scarf down some of that Halloween booty you pilfered, and relax with Dead Zed, Wolfgang Moonbang, and Rico Roacho in this latest and greatest from Pittsburgh Underground!

Don't forget to stay tuned for more horrors from Zed and the gang!!!

DOUBLE TREAT!!! We have a new character coming soon to the sewers so keep your eyes peeled!!!

PU Presents: Dead Zed Zombie - Episode 2, Season 3

<
PU Presents Dead Zed Zombie: Episode 1, Season 3
Dead Zed Zombie in Undead Fowl!

Happy Turkey Day everyone!!! Mmm... turkey!!! Can you believe it's here already? The gang from Pittsburgh Underground can't!!! It feels like just yesterday that Dead Zed Zombie, Wolfgang Moonbang, and Rico Roacho were having their Thanksgiving Luau, minus the bird! 

Never fear kids! This year, Wolfie has a BIG surprise for Zed as he 'invites' the guest of honor into the Pittsburgh Underground for the terrifying turkey-day festivities!

This year, we wanted to dedicate our Thanksgiving Day special to both veteran animator Tex Avery and our own National Aviary located right here in our fair city via our home base, the Northside of Pittsburgh. 

We know - sounds like a volatile mix right? That's what Pittsburgh Underground is all about gang - adding the craziest ingredients, standing back, and seeing what happens!

For those of you who've never taken the trip - the National Aviary is the premier bird zoo located in right in West Park, Central Northside (if you use Google Maps, just enter 700 Arch Street, Pittsburgh, PA 15212 and you'll find it!). They have EVERYTHING!!! Vultures, crow, and the occasional turkey! So drop by with your hatchlings for a visit my fine feathered finks!

Tex Avery (February 26, 1908 – August 26, 1980) is one of the most famous creators from the golden age of animation who's characters have stood the test of time - Daffy Duck, Bugs Bunny, Droopy, Screwy Squirrel, Porky Pig, and Chilly Willy are just a few who have spent more than a Saturday morning slaying you with laughter!

For this episode of Dead Zed, the PU Polter-TV's (you know, those ghostly little televisions that pop in and out of our shows from time to time) features Tex Avery's 1945 short (now public domain feature), Jerky Turkey. The gang would be remiss if we didn't salute Mr. Avery for all the happiness he's given us over the decades and wanted to bring you Jerky Turkey in it's entirety with this PU Thanksgiving Day Extra - Enjoy!!!


Jerky Turkey / 1945 MGM Short / Directed by Tex Avery

From the gang here at Pittsburgh Underground, we hope you all have a great Turkey Day with friends, family, and everyone in between. As always, good ol' PU is thankful that we have you as our audience - thanks again for stopping by and checking out our special brand of madness!

Don't forget - much more coming soon right here at Pittsburgh Underground!

PU Presents: Dead Zed Zombie Brain Pickin' With 7 Year Old Isaac Cromer



PU Presents Dead Zed Zombie: Episode 5, Season 2
Brain Pickin' With 7 Year Old Isaac Cromer


Howdy doo all you gruesome ghoulies! It's that time again for another episode of Pittsburgh Underground's favorite frontman Dead Zed Zombie! For this very special episode Zed corrupts the youth of America directly as he warps the brain one of PU's bestest buds, seven year old Isaac Cromer!!!

Isaac and Zed go way back (at least seven years) and have formed a bond that only a zombie and boy could. Occasionally bringing him dim-witted bullies, mean teachers, and the occasional girl scout to munch on, Isaac has been a true pal to his undead brother from another mother! 

In this episode, Zed picks Isaac's brain with some hard hitting questions that only a dead (or undead) dude could! So sit back, nab a snack, and relax that crack as we head down the halls of adolescent anarchy with this new dynamic duo!

Don't forget to check back soon for more Dead Zed Zombie!  - we'll be featuring more of our good friend Isaac Cromer in future episodes to come!

PU Presents: Dead Zed Zombie - Monka-Hunka-Chunka Love!




PU Presents Dead Zed Zombie: Episode 4, Season 2
Monka-Hunka-Chunky Love

Welcome one and all to another episode of Dead Zed Zombie presented exclusively by Pittsburgh Underground! Well the holidays have come and gone and we're all back to the grind of our daily lives (or deaths as is the case with our old pal Dead Zed).

As the year pushes on it's safe to say we've all felt a little under appreciated at times as we do whatever it is we do. Even Zed feels the banality of his own daily undead existence as you'll plainly see in this episode.

With that said we want all our viewers to chime in this time - post some comments, replies, etc. about Dead Zed Zombie, Rico Roacho, and Wolfgang Moonbang! What do you want to see in a future episode? LET US KNOW!!! We love hearing from our viewers and we want to know what you think!

Like us on your Facebook page and follow us on Twitter! Also, post to us on our blog at www.PU-Zine.com We want to hear from you (especially Zed - he's driving us frickin' nuts!). And as always, don't forget to stay tuned - we'll be back next month with an all new episode!

PU Presents: Dead Zed Zombie - Xmas Chaos!


PU Presents Dead Zed Zombie: Episode 3, Season 2
Xmas Chaos

Howdy all you greedy little beggars!!!  Well, it's finally time to get tanked on egg-nog, sniff some glue, and possibly pass out under the tree!

This year we had an entire Xmas thing planned for Dead Zed, Richo Roacho, and Wolfgang Moonbang - really we did! Unfortunately it didn't exactly work out the way we had envisioned, but then again - it's the thought that counts right?!

With that said, we wanted to thank all our loyal PU viewers for another fine year of mayhem, madness, and monkey shines (that's right ya whipper snappers! Monkey shines!). We'll see you in the new year for more insanity so stay tuned to your pals here at Pittsburgh Underground! Feliz Navidad

PU Presents: Dead Zed Zombie - Thanksgiving Day Luau!


PU Presents Dead Zed Zombie: Episode 2, Season 2
Thanksgiving Day Luau

Aloha Kemosabe! Welcome to a very SPECIAL EPISODE of Dead Zed Zombie...


The Thanksgiving Day Luau!

Unfortunately, being a zombie isn't always as awesome as you might think it would be (especially on the holidays when all you want is a home cooked meal). Never fear kids! Zed proves once more that improvisation is the key to self-satisfaction.

The gang here at Pittsburgh Underground hopes that your arteries have hardened, hearts have exploded, and have laughed yourself so silly that you may now slumber beyond the land of musical farts and gurgles.

It's been a long couple days gang - warrior needs food badly - stay smokin' and until next time...

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

Announcement: Dead Zed Zombie PINCHED!!!


Dead Zed Zombie CAPTURED After 8 Months On The Run

Happy Halloween gang!!! It's Pittsburgh Underground's FAVORITE DAY OF THE YEAR!!!! And what a year it was!!! Hell! What a weekend it was!!! After eight long months of searching, Dead Zed Zombie was finally cornered at of all places, some spooky carnival that literally just materialized in what some are describing as 'parts unknown' by none other than the undead ringmaster himself, Barnabas Bailey.

As you can see by the photos that were sent in, Zed looks, well... let's face it kids, he looks like crap.

It won't  take the gang here at Pittsburgh Underground long to secure Zed and bring him back to the sewers so HANG TIGHT - We will have another report in exactly 1 HOUR (that's right around 12:30 gang!) to give you the scoop on whether or not Dead Zed will air tonight for his anniversary show which will also start our Season 2 Episodes...

Announcement: WANTED!!! Dead Zed Zombie!!!


Howdy cowpies!!! We got ourselves a HUGE problem in these here parts!!! Dead Zed Zombie has been missin' from the Pittsburgh Underground since January and we need your help to find him!

Hopefully you've been keeping tabs on us here at PU and can point us in the right direction before something AWFUL happens!!! Please, comment below and let us know anything that you might about were you last saw him, what he was wearing, who he was with - ANY info you have will help us track him down!

Also, please don't forget to be very careful when approaching Zed - he's been on one of his heiness drug-n-drink blowouts since New Years Day of this year which means he most likely has the munchies and YOU are the food! We just need to find him before October 31st at Midnight so we can get him off the goofballs and get him ready for Dead Zed Zombie Season 2!!!

As always, thank you for supporting Pittsburgh Underground in our search for that little green doushbag...

Announcement: Missing! Dead Zed Zombie!!!



CALLING ALL CARS!!! We have a full-fledged ZOMBIE ALERT and Pittsburgh Underground needs your help!!!

It's been nearly ONE YEAR since our old pal Dead Zed Zombie made his first appearance to the world on our 2010 Halloween Special). His anniversary is fast approaching and the rotten green bastard is no where to be found!

I know you've been all patiently waiting for Dead Zed to make another appearance - we're as anxious as the rest of you... After our New Year's Day Spooktacular aired last year, Dead Zed went ape-shit crazy on one of his infamous holiday benders. He ruined our PU Master Control Program (seriously - zombie urine is a IMPOSSIBLE to get out!), stepped on Rico Rocho (luckily being a cockroach, he was able to squish down before he could splatter), and then tore out of the Pittsburgh Underground sewers on a rampage!


Dead Zed Zombie / Last Time Seen: 1/02/11 / Pittsburgh Underground

This is SERIOUS STUFF KIDS!!! Do you know the kind of damage that a half-crazed zombie can do to a city? Especially one that hasn't been our of seclusion since the late sixties! We need your help!!!

Send Pittsburgh Underground your pictures, videos, ANY information you might have on the whereabouts of Dead Zed Zombie!!! He needs nabbed and sobered up before Halloween night at Midnight so we can start Season 2 of Dead Zed Zombie on time!!! Stay tuned to PU as we bring you as much up to the minute info as we can during the desperate search for this little green A-hole...

PU Presents: Dead Zed Zombie - Episode 5, Season 1 - Xmas Special!

PU Presents Dead Zed Zombie: Episode 5, Season 1
A Very Krampus Khristmas

Holy Crappin' Xmas!!! We NEVER thought that Pittsburgh Underground would ever even CONSIDER an Xmas Special, but our old pal Rico Rocho talked (ok, tricked) Dead Zed into his very first one EVER!

Our own Chops Huber, brings us this Deadtime Story entitled, A Very Krampus Khristmas as read by Dead Zed Zombie and Rico Rocho.

Don't forget! You can get your FREE PU Pulp Poster commemorating 'CRUD, Issue One: A Very Krampus Khristmas',  also created by Chops Huber (hew! he's been BUSY this month!) just by CLICKING HERE  >  DUH!!!

Incidentally, the entire transcript of 'A Very Krampus Khristmas' by Chops is right under the poster (TA DA!)

What's a Krampus you say? He's the OTHER part of Xmas... the part of Xmas that we state side like to try to conveniently forget about. However, our European friends know better (you should see some of their festivals!). The Krampus is the demonic counterpart of good ol' St. Nick who drops by a bit before good old St. Jolly to PUNISH all those naughty children (mmm...mmm...Krampus-style!).  Yes, the KRAMPUS ROCKS!!!

With that said, don't forget to check back in with us next Saturday @ Midnight for Dead Zed Zombie's New Years Spectacular!

Merry Krampus Everyone!!!

So sit back, relax your crack, and enjoy the festivities - this week in HORRIFYING HIGH DEFINITION!!!

See you all in TWO WEEKS with another eerie episode!!!
