Janey Belle

Janey Belle is a fictional prostitute-turned-zombie, and the main character featured in the Zombie Tramp line of comic book titles published by Action Lab Comics under their Danger Zone imprint. The character was created by Dan Mendoza and first appeared in a series of self-published graphics novels from 2009-2011.

Origin
Janey Belle was a high-class prostitute operating out of Hollywood, California. She worked for a cross-dressing madam named George Sumero. She was the call-girl to the stars, and was frequently seen at public venues with well-known celebrities such as Brad Glitch at the Annual Movie Awards.

Shortly after the red carpet event, George Sumero was busted, and brought to jail. An unscrupulous prison guard blackmailed him into letting him have a night with Janey Belle. George explained his situation to Janey, who reluctantly agreed to take the client, even though she had a strict policy against having sex with cops.

That evening, Janey went to the address of the guard's house. He bad-mouthed her at length and called her a tramp, then escorted her down to the basement. She was shocked to find several skeletal remains across the floor, as well as a slavering zombie chained to a wall. The guard announced his intention to have sex with Janey, after which he would feed her to the zombie, who happened to be his son.

Before anything else could happen, the zombie broke his chains and leaped onto Janey, biting her in the shoulder. She managed to push him off, and raced out of the house and jumped into her car. She immediately began getting dizzy, and crashed the vehicle. Shortly thereafter, Janey Belle found herself transformed into one of the undead.

Detroit adventures
Janey Belle went to sleep in someone's grave in a cemetery and had dreams of the time when she was a high-school student, before becoming a zombie.

The following day, she awakened and decided that she needde a long bath. She broke into the home of a drug dealer named Walt and took a bath. Walt came home and Janey made a quick exit. What she didn't know, was that the tub she had bathed in was what Walt use to cook up his drugs - a tub that now had residue of Janey's rotting detritus inside of it.

Janey continued to make her way across the city. She broke into the house of some other unsuspecting resident and beheaded the homeowner. She then noticed a baby lying in a crib, which she took a liking to. She picked up the child and then took note of the television, which was broadcasting a violent episode involving a flesh-eater on the Tamahawk Bridge. Before leaving, she left a note for the decedent's wife, then cut off the man's finger, dipped it in milk and gave it to the baby to suck on.

Janey stole a truck and drove across the Tamahawk Bridge to investigate the zombie sighting. When she arrived, she found that Walt had now become a zombie as well, and was a huge hulking monstrosity that was looking for her for revenge.

Walt upended Janey's truck, and she was perplexed as to how he came to be in this situation. He growled about how her tainted bath water was mixed with his drugs and now he wanted revenge. During the fight, Janey received unexpected assistance from a leather-clad blade-wielding vigilante known as Vampblade. The two engaged Walt, who eventually left by super-leaping away.

Janey went to a cemetery where she dealt with Walt a second time. Using the Necronomicon, she attempted to exorcise Walt's soul from the creature's body, but this had only a temporary effect. She then summoned the undead to battle him, but Walt easily decimated the army of corpses, much to her surprise.
