The Walking Dead Comic Thread
 

Just a tad bit late getting into the comic... oh well. Lets keep this as spoiler free as possible for the people that havn't read the issues yet.

Well I guess I'll start the thread with a question. Yo, how long has Rick been asleep in issue #1? lol :lol: everything is all overrun, shabby, tall grass, and a broken down city & all.

[ahhh comic book logic ya gotta love it!]

Update 03/20/12:

Interesting article on race issues & racism within the Walking Dead TV show & comic.

If that's the case might as well close the thread. Books been around for a while, I think we are past the spoiler zone.

Well since there isn't an official walking dead comic thread, lets use one of these and pretend that only issue #1 is out right now :thumbsup:

[ninja vanish :shifty:]

the first 6 issues weren't bad at all. enjoyed the pacing, the art captures details very well, liked the differences against those taken in the show, etc.

Issue 6 highlight spoiler!



[overall it was a strong run with the first 6 comics]

I just finished issue 95. Man, what a comic. Also, if you are interested and like Kirkman's writing, check out Invincible, it's at least as good as The Walking Dead.

Have you been reading his "Thief of Thieves" book?

Just got up to issue #42... wow this series has got me hooked, caught on to the wave late but glad I discovered it (gotta thank the show for that). Could you imagine an animated feature/show based on the comics? Drool worthiness level set at infinite!

[Loving the cover art! :o]

I read the first maybe 5 or 6 of these in GN form a couple years back and began to feel such a horrible case of Kirkman-syndrome that I simply never wanted to touch them again. Also, the art after Moore left went into the sh*tter and never came back out.

Glad you are enjoying it. It's a great series, and I gotta say #95 was outstanding. I really believe #100 is gonna be epic.

The prison arc is amazing I don't know how they can top it... :thumbsup:

No, haven't picked any issues yet. Is it any good?

Moore is amazing, and something like that happened to me as well. But Adlard gets so much better as issues go by, and he suits the writing in a better way than Moore does, in my opinion.

Yeah it's a good one. But just wait. Issue #83 will change you.

Your right dude issue 83 was crazy! Just getting into the Larger World Arc, will definitely be caught up way before issue 100 hits the shelves.

I don't even know what to say about this book/series it definitely showed me what alot of comics nowadays are missing.

[i really hope the ninja turtles comics reach some kind of impact similar to the walking dead. i hate to compare the two series, but the fact is there are good and there are great comics.]

Was anyone disappointed with issue 100? Hopefully the series revives itself... seems like its just been recycling old ideas that they've already done in past story arcs.

Not disappointed, but the hype was retarded.
