'Wesley Wyndham-Price' Warns Salt Lake City Council of Zombie Attack

Vampires we're ready for, but zombies...

Hopefully you've already read the April Fools Day Round-Up we put together (with some help from ComicMix readers), but even if you did, here's one we missed.

From the April 6 edition of The Salt Lake Tribune, City Council report:

Georgia transplant Wesley Wyndham-Price calmly stood before the City Council, cautioning members about downtown's derelict emergency-preparedness plan. City elders are "insouciantly" unaware of risks to City Creek Center, he warned.

Wyndham-Price even paused to joke that Georgia's saltwater taffy is better than Utah's. "I hope that is not an ad hominem," he shrugged.

Then he got specific and all reason helicoptered into the ether.

City Creek needs an emergency-preparedness plan, he demanded, against zombies.

"Zombies are fierce," he said as a crammed council chamber laughed nervously. "They are going to catch us in there."

Yes, in addition to continuing their adventures in the pages of Dark Horse and IDW comics, your favorite characters from Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel are apparently still preaching the gospel of undead threats... to Mormons.
