ahahahaha man, I just read 42 fucking issues of the walking dead on your recommendation after I asked for SINGLE COMPLETE CONTAINED STORIES and the last issue I had (42) ends on the biggest climax the story has so far, turning out the thing isn't even finished yet :( How could you do this to me!?
Anyway this topic is about the Walking Dead, wokipedias (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Walking_Dead) and what you guys think of it. I was enjoying it so far because it's a pretty digestible read. The issues are short and don't really require a lot of brain power to take in other than CHARACTER DIES, SHOOTER ZOMBIES, DRIVE AROUND IN AN RV. It's not a comic for kids but I would say it was probably aimed at teens because anybody looking for a serious read is looking in the wrong place, it's pretty silly in parts.
Anyway, WHAT GONNA HAPPEN NEXT?

like it. It is a zmobie story that focuses on the people rather than the zonbies and proviedes REASONS forn their actiions. It may be kinda siklly at parts but FUCK DUDE THIS IS COMICSo and there is very little relasm in a medium which is regarced as being for teenages so we fucking PRAY FOR WHAT WE ARE GIVNE and this ins one of the bets comics around ta the moment.
I duuunno where yu are at the moment but with the hwolee OTHER SURVIVOTRE THING /SPOILERZ it does start getting somewhat silly ut fuck you whoever wrote this ie one of the best comic writes around to this date at the moment (he wrote another critic\lly acclaimed series for image whose name I fail rorememver aomething about a superhero though)

BATTLE POPE
also man don't get me wrong it is really good, I'm just saying it's easier to digest than like WATCHMEN or the INVISIBLEs.

isn't this the comic where this fat white guy smashes a zombie baby against a table?

there's a good video of Kirkman (the writer) getting in an argument with Todd McFarlane you should look up.

Man that's awesome. What a Trooper. If you read the letters section at the back of any walking dead comic you really get to know how fucking deadpan kirkman is. People write him these long letters and he just brushes them all off with sarcastic one liners. It's hilarious.
McFarlane's defense of the Image Comics ethic during its early years led to a noteworthy "style versus substance"-themed feud with comic book writer Peter David. McFarlane's assertion was that comic writers were secondary in importance to artwork in terms of commercial success.
Holy smokes, What a smooth dude.
