Then you'll be glad to know Zombie is apparently also teaming with YouTube outlet Nerdist Channel to launch a comedy series called "My Name Is Eugene." With so much going on, Zombie must be less human than human and more superman (or maybe he's truly a zombie). "It worked out great since the agency wanted a Clint Howard type for the spot," says Zombie.
