The Rolling Dead
From Rocklopedia Fakebandica
Jump to navigationJump to searchComic book band whose lead singer is Sharon Selleck. She describes them as "the new shatterock group." In volume 1, #17 (September, 1983) of the Fantastic Four Annual comic book, she gets lost on her way to a gig and gets stuck in the town of King's Crossing, Vermont.
Her lactose intolerance saves her, as it turns out that the whole town is under the evil influence of milk from shape-shifting alien Skrulls hypnotized into thinking they are cows. She manages to warn the Fantastic Four who arrive and clean up the mess.
The band's name is clearly a portmanteau of real bands "The Rolling Stones" and "The Grateful Dead."
Selleck's day job is a tv news cameraperson.
