Rob Zombie & Todd McFarlane?

I received an email from the Rob Zombie mailing list which provided me with the following information:

For the true Zombie fans - Rob will be the featured guest on Todd McFarlane's MLB radio show on Thursday, Nov. 6 at 2 p.m. EST. 

Sadly, I just checked both Rob and Todd's sites and I can't find anything more on this. So as far as I'm concerned, this could be considered a rumor - but I will keep my eye on it until more definite articles appear.

Some verifiable news appears on Zombie's site, though: His comic book, Spookshow International is hitting stands on October 29th. The article, found in his "News" Section of his site, was posted on 10/07/03 and reads as follows:

Spookshow International Finally, the long awaited Rob Zombie comic book, Spookshow International issue #1 is hitting the stands. Here's a glimpse of the cover, but that's just the beginning of what you1ll find in this colorful extravaganza. Check out the action pack adventures of dazzling character like El Superbeasto, and House of 1000 Corpses favorites Otis and Baby!! In comic stores near you, Oct. 29th!!!

(Editorial Note: the number "1" in the word "you1ll" appears in the original quote itself.)

Images of both the cover and some beautiful templates can be found in the "Latest Rob Zombie News" section (at his website, cited at bottom) under the following dates: 07/19/03 though 07/23/03 and 10/07/03.

The comic tells of El Superbeasto, a "super cool masked wrestler secret agent fighting crime on the filthy streets of Monsterland. " Next is a story depicting the origins of Dr. Satan and "how The Professor saved his life." Up next is a story involving the loveable clown, Captain Spaulding, and Baby. Finally comes a story from "Marvel Master artist Gene Colan" about Rob himself. Also in this comic are various Behind the Scenes stories from House of 1000 Corpses, some kick-ass pin-ups, and a whole Household more.
