The Walking Dead

Anybody here reading this fine piece of zombie drama? I just picked up vol. 1-3 (trade paperback) and I cannot put it down. The great thing about this comic is that it's not all gore all the time, there's good character development with a good ongoing story. I hear vol. 8 is coming out soon too. here's the link to the publisher if anybody's interested:http://www.imagecomics.com/

Re: The Walking Dead

This is an amazing series, everyone should pick these books up!

My only problem with it is that I didn't read it until 5 trade paperbacks were out, I read it all in under 30 hours, and just wanted more!

I'm waiting for the 8th volume right now.



Huggable Zombie, KingArthur1976, Utgarsrage, and Scapegeek are all great traders.

Me too. I bought volumes 1-4 from Annerios and read them real-quick in two nights.
I need to go back and revisit them and acquire the other volumes.
Are they up to volume 8 now?!?

Re: The Walking Dead

I have read all the TPBs in existence. If I didn't spend so much money on Heroscape these days, I'd be tempted to convert to the gorgeous hardcovers (I cannot resist the lure of the HC =( ). Great book. I love Robert Kirkman and company a lot.

Re: The Walking Dead

I've been on a Zombie kick lately (thanks to Last night on earth), so I just ordered vol.1-2. Thanks for the suggestion!

Re: The Walking Dead

Quite a journey. While reading an issue I find myself very immersed in the story.

Re: The Walking Dead

This is a great series. I started with issue 1, and have them all. I have been tempted to sell the first few as their price creeps up and up. I have the first trade already, to loan to people and attempt to hook them, so I wouldn't be missing any of the story.

Those of you reading trades, I envy you. You have some story to catch up on, and I have nothing new until the next issue.

Re: The Walking Dead

I read all 7 tpbs I get to pick up #8 on Friday right before HellBoy. Great reading I hope the walking dead keeps up for at least 5 more years.

Re: The Walking Dead

Man. I just picked up #8 like last week. I wanted to cry. WHY DO SUCH HORRIBLE THINGS KEEP HAPPENING IN THIS BOOK!?

Which issue does #8 end with? I read monthly, so don't buy the trades, and was just wondering where you were at in the story.
