the walking dead days gone bye robert kirkman

it was sort of hit and miss at first, but it was definitely engaging, absolutely lived up to robert kirkman's maxim, stated in the beginning of this first volume, that the best zombie story is about the people, not the zombies, and should therefore stay with the characters and watch what they become over time.

i put it off because i didn't have time, and then suddenly i decided that i had time. Maybe that was ok, because about a year ago i started, belatedly, getting into the t.v. oh well, i thought, and decided not to search any further. that sounds interesting, but it's so far away.

they were always on the periphery of my hearing, always someone talking about them somewhere. I wish i had read these when they first came out, but somehow i missed them. 'About this title' may belong to another edition of this title.This is sort of a review of all 6 volumes i've read so far: Forceful scripting that gives the book a strong grounding in reality, crisp b&w artwork, a shocking final sequence and brisk, gory proceedings elevate this book from the trash heap of pedestrian horror comics.Ĭopyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. and Dawn of the Dead, the last humans may turn out to be as much a danger as the zombies. Of course, as in recent hit movies 28 Days Later. Grimes makes his way to Atlanta, the nearest large city where there may be other living people, and events take several unexpected turns upon his arrival, as he meets up with a rural encampment of survivors. From the moment Grimes comes to, it's a harrowing battle to avoid hordes of decomposing zombies and a hope-against-all-odds search for his missing family. From here, he's immediately dragged into a world where dangerous revenants are shambling amok without any sort of an explanation. This collection of the first six issues of the ongoing series opens with police officer Rick Grimes awakening from a gunshot-induced coma. Taking a well-worn genre-flesh-eating zombies overrun the world and the unlucky surviving humans must deal with the gruesome aftermath-and approaching it from a purely character-driven point of view propels this series into the spotlight from out of nowhere.
