The ZOM-BAT are the combinations of two technologies: Cesspools bioengineering and Overkills cybernetics. Once in awhile when the Toxo-vipers needed fresh soldiers...they turned to the various morgues and mortuaries around the city if they couldn't find dead bodies to cover in the "ressurecting chemicals".

Aswad Ibn-Shakarami/Al-Khemali(Cesspools second in command...costum coming soon!) had worked as the Los Angelas county Medical Examiners office as a dental examiner and suggested they experiment on one of the transient corpses that was in the beginning stages of decompostion that no one had identified.

The unidentified John Doe was then transported to CessPools Lab in Cental City East....Here they met up with Overkill who had recently arrived from Jamaica. Together, the two of them combined their technologies to ressurect this badly decomposing corpse. Overkill searched through what remained of the dead mans brain matter to find his memories....and it was revealed he was a transient named Wallace Shafar....a former Veteran in the secret South American conflict. Shafar had hit hard times on the Los Angelas streets and was murdered....

The corpse was then reassembled with a BAT brain and given new bioengineered blood by CessPool which helped to slowdown the decomposition. However, the initial decomposition caused all of the new BAT parts to quickly rust.


"You know when you've found the zom-bat...He smells like rotting meat mixed with bowel waste and rusty metal....If his build in weapons don't kill you...then his smell will...except you can't kill the undead. I've blown off his head so many times...Yet Overkill & Cesspool still figure out a way to keep it on"

Well it's hard to tell with the picture. From what can be seen, he looks like he is pretty good. It's just a little too dark and blurry to really give a valid opinion. The story idea you came up with is pretty cool though.

I like it.

Poor Ambush.
