Hyundai and the Walking Dead Bring Fandesigned Zombie Hyundai Motor America 10550 Talbert Ave, Fountain Valley, CA 92708 MEDIA WEBSITE: HyundaiNews.com CORPORATE WEBSITE: HyundaiUSA.com FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE HYUNDAI AND THE WALKING DEAD BRING FAN­DESIGNED ZOMBIE SURVIVAL MACHINE TO LIFE ID: 39236 All­New Santa Fe Zombie Survival Machine Will Debut at New York Comic­Con Special Gallery to Feature “Hyundai Presents The Walking Dead A Decade of Dead” Documentary COSTA MESA, Calif., Oct. 4, 2013 – Zombies beware! Hyundai will welcome the newest addition to its zombie­fighting family at New York Comic­Con: Anson Kuo’s Santa Fe Zombie Survival Machine. Aimed at effective undead annihilation, the fan­built vehicle will be on display for the living on the show floor on October 10. As part of The Walking Dead Chop Shop configurator app designed by Hyundai and INNOCEAN USA (launched during San Diego Comic­Con), fans have designed thousands of custom zombie survival machines using the Hyundai Veloster Turbo, Santa Fe or Elantra. This summer, Kuo’s Santa Fe design was picked as the winner out of more than 82,500 fan submissions. His winning vehicle was constructed by Galpin Auto Sports (GAS) and the real­life machine will be unveiled on the New York Comic­Con show floor on October 10 at the Future US booth. Kuo, who hails from Arizona, created an urban camouflaged Zombie Survival Machine featuring: knife blades, an automatic crossbow, razor­wired windows, three machine guns, a samurai sword, aluminum armor and a muffler silencer. His mission was to create a stealthy vehicle with abundant cargo space for supplies and passengers, maximizing survivability against the undead. Having knives as a primary weapon ensures scarce ammunition is conserved, said Kuo. This Hyundai will be a true zombie obliterator. “We love Anson Kuo’s take on this Santa Fe Zombie Survival Machine – it’s creative… and deadly,” said Steve Shannon, vice president, Marketing, Hyundai Motor America. “With help from the popularity of The Walking Dead franchise, Hyundai continues to expand the conversation around Hyundai vehicles with young and passionate audiences.” At San Diego Comic­Con in July, Hyundai unveiled a customized Veloster Zombie Survival Machine designed by Robert Kirkman and fabricated by GAS. “Having Anson’s winning design on display at New York Comic­Con is a fun way to celebrate The Walking Dead’s 10th anniversary,” said Robert Kirkman. New York Comic­Con attendees will be able to take pictures with the new Zombie Survival Machine at the Future US booth and get inside the vehicle to check out all of the features. The booth will also feature a zombie make­up artist, limited edition giveaways, and more. Hyundai’s continued partnership with Robert Kirkman’s Skybound imprint at Image Comics and Kirkman’s groundbreaking comic and best­selling graphic novels, The Walking Dead,also includes a special gallery execution featuring “The Walking Dead A Decade of Dead” curated by former editorial director Sina Grace. His display can be viewed at local gallery space Pillars 37 October 10­12.

He wants the dinosaurs that live there! He wants the powerful DynOre mineral that originates there! Super Dinosaur and Derek Dynamo are the only ones who can stop him! The fate of the world rests on the shoulders of a ten year-old kid and his best friend, a nine-foot tall Tyrannosaurus Rex who loves to play video games!Collecting the first five issues and the origin special of the explosive new series by The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman and superstar artist Jason Howard. Super Dinosaur is a treat for kids and the comics-loving adults who choose never to grow up. When I first saw the cover for the new comic, I’ll admit I had my doubts. The guy who gave us such serious comics worlds as The Walking Dead, Thief of Thieves, and Invincible couldn’t possibly create something light-hearted. Could he?Well, he did. Derek Dynamo (gotta tell you, that name turned me off for a little while, but it’s a cool name for a kid’s hero and I gradually warmed to it) and his dino friend, Super Dinosaur (yeah, Derek named him) are locked in constant battle with Max Maximus.The core of the story might be the friendship between Derek and Super Dinosaur, but the father/son relationship is pretty awesome as well.

After recently purchasing an all­new 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport, Kuo decided to design his “zombie­ mobile” based on his own new car. Kuo’s customized Hyundai Santa Fe Zombie Survival Machine, brought to life by Galpin Auto Sports (GAS), will be revealed on the New York Comic Con floor at the Future US booth in the Javits Center today. Kuo’s Santa Fe design was picked as the winner out of more than 82,500 fan submissions on The Walking Dead Chop Shop configurator app. “My main design goal was to make the vehicle as stealthy and spacious as possible,” said Kuo. “I knew knives and blades would be the best bet for weaponry – they could slice and dice the zombies without releasing any ammunition. Basing the design on the Santa Fe allows space for extra passengers as well as weapons, supplies and all the other necessary items needed during a real zombie apocalypse.” Kuo’s urban camouflaged Zombie Survival Machine features knife blades, an automatic crossbow, razor­wired windows, three machine guns, a samurai sword, aluminum armor and a muffler silencer. New York Comic Con attendees will be able to take pictures with the new Zombie Survival Machine at the Future US booth and get inside the vehicle to check out all of the features.
