An identification chart for the undead in the appropriately visceral style of a vintage medical illustration, successfully Kickstarter’d by Jason B. Thompson, who sez:

How many different forms of undead and not-really-undead have gone by the zombie name? As a horror fan, when I hear that something has “zombies,” I want to know: are they fast zombies or slow zombies? Viral zombies, supernatural zombies or alien-invasion zombies? Headshot zombies, living zombies or writhing-severed-limbs zombies? Crazed, unreasonable people who are alive but act ‘zombie-like’? Voodoo zombies, cannibal zombies or rotting Etruscan curse zombies?

Full sized version here.

An elaborate and rather brilliant promo for the Motomaster Eliminator battery made by auto parts retailer Canadian Tire

A Chevrolet 2500HD truck chassis with a body shell hewn from nearly five tonnes of ice, complete with mirrors, reg plate, door handles and hanging air freshener.

Frozen to -40ºC, the construction team successfully drove the glaciated pickup for over a kilometer through the streets of Ontario, highlighting the resilience of the battery (and the average Canadian ass) to extremes of cold.
