Holy @%#$ing @#$%! ...seriously ((((((DO NOT READ THE OTHER REVIEWS UNLESS YOU WANT THE PLOT SPOILED))))) I really don't think there is a way to describe the amount of talent that goes into this book without dropping some F-bombs. but I'll try... Speaking generally about the entire series so I don't give anything away... Lets just say that I honestly can't remember the last time words and images had this big of an impact on me. I work at a comic book store and I read everything. Honestly. My @$$ is kicked. This book has made the biggest impact on me than ANY other series I have read. YOU HAVE TO READ THE WHOLE THING. Kirman slows down the story from time to time but only if its necessary, and then pulls you right back in. You are in good hands. This book has EVERYTHING! If this review is the one that talks you into reading the series... your welcome =o) trust me.. you will want to thank me later.
It just keeps getting better and better!!! These WALKING DEAD books just keep getting better and better. After finishing BOOK #2 I was wondering if the series would get repetitive and boring. But I was dead wrong. Robert Kirkman just manages to keep things surprisingly unpredictable.
At the same time, it is amazing how intense the story get at certain times. I find it also very funny the way Kirkman appears to pay some nice homages now and then to George Romero. News people on a helicopter? Very nice, Mr. Kirkman. Now I cannot wait to put my hands on Book #4.
This series is truly amazing and I can only say that it puts to shame 90% of all zombie films out there.
This series is mandatory reading for any true zombie connoisseur!
ZOmbies YeS Product arrived on time.Great read.An awesome graphic novel all the way around.Image has done a spectacular job and Amazon delivers a great price.
Zombies Rule Any fan of zombie fiction will get a kick out of Rob Kirkman's masterpiece, The Walking Dead series. Originally(so glad to not have to buy each individual volume now!) but the hardback is wonderfully sturdy. Altho this third book gets even more disturbing with the introduction of some really seriously messed up dudes and everybody just might be going a bit psychotic, Kirkman's storyline just keeps on getting better. Must have for zombie fan!
The best of the best To make this review short and helpful I will start by saying that "The Walking Dead" Series is perhaps the finest of all zombie comics. The characters are rich and developed slowly as part of the long serial plot. The zombies are Romero through and through, so there is none of that super human thinking zombie crap. Much like a good zombie film, the monsters help set the stage and serve as a challenge, but are not the only danger/motivator that the protagonists face. The world is dark and horrifyingly revealed by quality art. The issues in this volume are quite good, action packed, and brutal enough to make a veteran horror fan come back for more. The hard cover edition is well put together, looks nice and has the durable feel that a reader or collector will want out of a volume. Plus the gallery in the back has some nice art from covers and other sources.
