Zombie? Certainly. Alive? How am I supposed to know that?

Im voting Keep Until Better Image Suggested. The look to be running (Which is more lifelike than shambling), and they don't look particularly rotting. but really, how is a living zombie going to look different from an undead one anyway? Beside being hooked up to a heart monitor...

Not crazy about the image, but I think it shows the living part as well as we could ever hope, considering the circumstances.

Last time we had this discussion, all the suggested images failed to prove that they were alive, and Keep Until Better Image Suggested won out, keeping the current image.

Old thread, though I seem to recall there was a more recent one...

Anyway, Keep Until Better Image Suggested.

What - we can't find a picture of a zombie that looks diseased but not necrotic? o_O

I prefer the current. IT says Zombie more explicitly than the suggestion which looks more to me like she's really injured.

I prefer the Quarantine one; more obvious she's alive.

I'm meh on it. Doesn't look Zombie enough. Not bad, but I find the current better.

Zombie-looking = dead-looking... gonna be really hard to find something exactly in the middle between zombie-looking and alive-looking.

[up][up] Buh? Not necessarily. Just about any that are mutated and don't have rotting flesh or exposed bone...

From the last thread, This character from the last thread pretty clearly has blood flowing in his veins.

Yeah, 17 looks not like a zombie.

14, aside of being a multi-paneler when I don't know which panel is right, doesn't look very zombiey.

I like the current one best. The zombies are running which means that they are fast zombies. Fast zombies are usually Technically Living, and TechnicallyLivingZombies are often fast.

That doesn't look like a zombie at all - living or no.

I also stress that not all fungi exercise mind control, let alone these shown there.
