Online, October 21, 2009 (Newswire.com) - Alice Cooper (Theatre of Death), Nestor Carbonell (Lost), John Dolmayan (System of a Down), Jesse James (Jesse James Is a Dead Man), Michael Kelly (The Changeling), Marc Macaulay (Burn Notice), Danny Trejo (Machete), and Robin Williams (World's Greatest Dad)lend their likeness to upcoming action / horror comic book, THE RUFNEX.

The announcement was made today by Miguel A. Insignares, the writer and artist of the project. Miguel A. Insignares' previous credits include the official comic book adaptation for the 2004 film, Dawn of the Dead.

Mr. Insignares said, "I am honored to have such an incredible roster of talent which have agreed to lend their likeness to this project and I am thrilled at the potential of THE RUFNEX brand across various entertainment media." He continued, "We foresee this comic book selling out fast and are therefore giving fans a chance to pre-order the first issue for a special
price at www.islandofthedead.com. In addition, we will be running several on-line auctions to give readers an opportunity to be illustrated in the comic book as a zombie." (Proceeds to benefit the Hero Initiative Charity)
