TEL AVIV, Israel–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Zlango, the global leader in visually enhanced text and mobile messaging solutions and services, today unveiled its The Walking Dead theme pack, which was licensed and developed based on the comic book series characters. Currently available as an optional free update for users of the Zlango Messaging App for Android phones, Zlango will unveil the newly created content at the New York Comic Con taking place at the Javits Center in New York City, NY (October 13-16, 2011).
“Continuing the comic book evolution to TV and big screens, we are proud to collaborate with The Walking Dead creators in bringing this phenomenon to mobile phones”
