Hello there Martyk, time for your critique!

Yeah unfortunately there is already a paranormal investigator on the island so you would want to change your character's career path. and it really wouldn't have worked out anyway because the whole Zombie deal doesn't make sense. Real life Zombies that have been reported are not the decaying/rotting undead corpses you see in movie films

Also you may want to consider increasing your character's age, being 20 is a bit young to me to be any sort of investigator.

Another thing that you may want to alter is the whole 'Orphan' bit. it really is kind of clique and overused, having been "abandoned at a young age"
A suggestion would be to fix this, its much more likely if say his parents die that he has to live with his uncle/aunt, grandparents or foster home rather than to get bounced to the orphanage.

Now, Marty's personality. It would do you well to work on this, usually when someone has 'mood swings' they don't go as far in range as reclusive emo to 'Raging twitching Psycho the next. you also mention that he normally tries to be optimist, it doesn't make sense that he would have all these wide ranging personality traits. It would make more sense that Marty might be optimistic but has anger-management issues.

Makes sence. I'll gett around to changing it all once I'm done with exams (four more days. agh.) Anyway, I'm well aware that zombies arn't (usually) rotting corpses. I've read books on the subject. Horay for Max Brooks!

definately an improvement, and overall looks pretty good.

Although the part with him needing a 'blade on him at all times' ought to go, along with the blurb with him dousing a blade with gasoline. with gasoline, it isn't the liquid that burns, its the vapours that burn, Gasoline is highly explosive and creates a large, invisible vapor cloud that can be easily ignited
So if Marty's trick there was tried for real, he'd probably get seriously hurt and burned.

and I don't think his 'Katana' would even make it though the airport before he got on the helicoptor. plus, real Katana are very expensive, and don't think Marty's uncle would be able to buy it outright, and also where you have Feral labs attempting to get marty by posing as a university, most universities have rules against having 'weapons' in my personal experiance you couldn't have a knife/sword whatever with a blade longer than 4 inches in length.

So probably best to just drop the katana part out

Hokay, I wanna add a section I call "The Yay or Nay Section". What that will entail is you, my co-questers posting as many people, objects, concepts, anything, and then they will be added to the Yay or Nay wall with Marty's Position on them. So don't delay, post today!

Oh I've changed the name to Marty instead of Monty so here's the new link and it's been scanned in cleaner too.
