Ditching Responsibility for the Ultimate Ride
In this classic Wilbur Kookmeyer strip, Bob Penuelas explores the supernatural obsession that takes over when a new swell hits. “Surf Zombies” depicts a spooky, bizarre power that compels dedicated wave-hunters to abandon their daily lives entirely. The comic hilariously illustrates surfers being transformed into mindless ghouls who quit their jobs, ditch school, and bail on their girlfriends just to get into the water. With no control over their actions, these “surf junkies” prove that when the waves are pumping, human willpower is no match for the hypnotic pull of the ocean.
