I love this series, love some of the characters, love the feel of it and I loves me zombies...

BUT......in a way, I feel this series is just dragging along for one thing after another. When you think about it, this comic will go on and on and on on with people surviving, escaping zombies and sometimes surviving but living like bums in the night.

This series needs something new and fresh and soon.

Jedi...

Agree tottally with your first comment....

Couldn't disagree more with your second comment. Dragging on and on is pretty muchthe point of TWD. To show what hapopens beyond the 2 hr movie. or mini series. we get to see what a real mess the world is, and how it really just doesn't seem to get better. PLUS for "dragging on" the pace of this book is breakneck.

I can't read the revies here, because I only read it in Trades. I'd go bananas if I read it monthly, because I tear through a trade in about 7 min, it would take me 2 min to read the monthly comic. So I can only read the review that comes out after trades are released.

Anyway TWD is the mutherfucking holy grail of Comics, and Zombie storie BOTH!

Don't change a thing Kirkman, this is one of the only new and fresh books on the shelf.

I get that the goal of the comic is to go in details with people surviving a horrific situation. From then on, it's just a bit too slow and it's a good point that maybe this book should be read as a trade and not on a monthly basis.

I would suggest ''Crossed'' by Garth Ennis (this guy is the holy grail of writers). It's the perfect exemple of how characters in a very hard situation can move in crazy events yet you really feel and care for these characters.

Of course Kirkman is no Gath Ennis but, it's just that I feel TWD is getting a bit too slow.

Thanks for the recommendation Jedi, I'll check it out.

I gotta ask though do you not care about the characters in WD. I am super attached to them, and care what happens to them. I'm a Ennis fan, but I would go so far as to say, Kirkman is his equal.

I care about the characters in WD but, to a point where I know anyone could die, the characters I actually liked are mostly dead, only one is left (that black girl with the sword, forget her name), other then that, it's ok.

I guess the best exemple to what I'm trying to say is, it feels like Lost BEFORE we knew there was going to be 6 seasons in total. Before that, the show was good but was really going anywhere without fully knowing how things would tie up. We know WD will go on and on and on without really having a goal or an end therefore characters in this situation will live similar events and I fear the book will become repetitive.

To tay Kirkman is equal to Garth Ennis is a bit strange in my book but, everyone's entitled to their opinion. If you compare Ennis's book and how many great, super awsome books he's done compared to Kirkman, it's a bit of a David VS Goliath battle (Ennis being goliath obviously) and in this tale, the small dude doesn't win...in my book anyway.
