Walking Dead The Comic Book [WORK]

Warning! This post contains SPOILERS for The Walking Dead series finaleThe final episode of The Walking Dead shares its title with Robert Kirkman's final volume of The Walking Dead comic, "Rest in Peace", but there are several differences between the TV show ending and comic ending. Throughout its 11 seasons, AMC's The Walking Dead has always made alterations to the comic book, with the show introducing original characters like Daryl Dixon but also shockingly killing off survivors like Carl Grimes. Generally, The Walking Dead's main group of heroes have come up against the same enemies in both stories, with wars being waged with the Saviors, the Whisperers, and the Commonwealth, but exactly how those storylines have played out has been different.
Season 11 built up to the final confrontation between The Walking Dead's heroes and Pamela Milton's Commonwealth. When Pamela refuses to open the gates to rescue hundreds of innocent citizens, Daryl, Gabriel, and the rest of the main group stand up to the Commonwealth Governor and her armed forces. Daryl Dixon delivers a heartfelt speech telling Pamela that every survivor deserves a chance to live, reminding her that "we ain't the walking dead", which convinces the Commonwealth soldiers to stand down and allows Gabriel to open the gates.
In The Walking Dead comic book, similar events occur at the Commonwealth, but in a different order. After defeating a herd of walkers, the Commonwealth army, led by Pamela, squares off with Rick's militia. When Pamela calls for an attack, Rick immediately intervenes peacefully and convinces everyone, and delivers the famous line "we are NOT the walking dead". Like Daryl Dixon in The Walking Dead show, Rick's intervention prevents further bloodshed in the Commonwealth.
The Walking Dead TV show ending had to deliver at least one main character's death, and it did so with Rosita, who was tragically bitten during her heroic fight against the zombie herd. Rosita's death adapts Andrea's comic book death, where she is similarly bitten by a walker but gets to live out her final moments surrounded by her loved ones. In Kirkman's comic, Rosita is one of the victims whose zombified head is placed on Alpha's infamous Whisperer pike border, so was not part of the Commonwealth storyline.
Robert Kirkman's comic book ending takes a much bigger time jump in its final issue, which focuses on an adult Carl Grimes who has a family with Sophia. Carl gets into a legal altercation, judged by Michonne, after killing one of Herschel Rhee's zombies that he uses for his carnival show. Elsewhere, Maggie is the president of the much expanded Commonwealth, Eugene has developed a railway system between communities, Negan is living alone, and a huge statue of Rick Grimes is erected. Although they have several differences, both the TV show and comic book are fitting endings for The Walking Dead.
The Walking Dead series finale will be very similar to that in the comic books of which the television show is based. However, chief content officer Scott M. Gimple has also revealed there will be key differences in the ending of the long-running series, the finale episode of which will air November 20.
The Walking Dead is a zombie apocalypse comic book, written by Robert Kirkman with art by Charlie Adlard,note Tony Moore did the first six issues featuring an ensemble cast (which is constantly in flux) of survivors struggling to survive over the long-term duration of the zombie uprising. The de facto main character is Rick Grimes, a police officer who was shot in the line of duty; when he wakes up from a Convenient Coma, all hell has broken loose. Rick goes in search of his family and safety, both of which end up being more tenuous than not.
While most zombie apocalypse comic books focus on More Dakka and improbable fighting skills in order to showcase Big Damn Heroes, The Walking Dead focuses more of its action on survival horror and the psychological and personal relationships which result from the stress of being constantly on guard. As one critic (and the main character himself, eventually) put it, the title is specifically not referring to the zombies, but the survivors.
Following the launch of the sold-out set released in July 2012, Cryptozoic is very proud to be partnering with Skybound to release another set of trading cards based on the insanely popular comic books, The Walking Dead! The base cards for this set will feature cover art not included in Set 1, and will take an in depth look at some of our favorite (and most despised) characters!
One other member of the old guard that played an important role was Christian Serrato's Rosita -- a fan-favorite from the comics. Unfortunately, she didn't make it out alive, carving one of the show's most heartbreaking endings. However, her fate in the book was much darker, making the TV series' death look like a walk in the park.
Not all of the characters on the AMC show have roots in the comics though. Daryl and Tara are among the series' original characters. Others, like Carol, are completely different from their comic-book counterparts.
Instead, she starts relationships with Morgan and King Ezekiel in the books. The TV version of Michonne has partially taken over the role of Andrea from the comic, who similarly starts up a relationship with Rick.
The Walking Dead now has fans across many mediums, whether it be television or comic books. Fans of Telltale's The Walking Dead adventure game, however, are unique in many regards. That's because The Walking Dead adventure games aren't an adaptation. They tell the story of Clementine, as well as those she meets as part of her adventures. Up until now, Clementine's been limited to just Telltale's The Walking Dead adventure games, but that's about to change. A new The Walking Dead original graphic novel has just been announced.
One further detail worth mentioning is that the full name of this new story is Clementine Book One. While not explicitly stated, the insinuation is clearly that Skybound plans to continue releasing Clementine books as part of a series. In fact, there are already plans for a prelude, too, with a Clementine story appearing in a special series of Skybound X comics. The first issue of Skybound X releases July 7.
The Walking Dead Weekly reprinted the first 52 issues of the comic book series. As the title suggests, these were released weekly in comic book stores throughout 2011. They do not have any special content in them, just the comic book story.
Hi Hanna, great question. The best place to start with The Walking Dead us from the very start. The comic has become very popular and as a result it has come out in different formats, each collect the same content but some collect more than others. For example the first volume collects the first 6 issues of the comic, while the compendium collects the first 48. Which one you decide to go for will depend how much you ultimately want to spend or if you want to have a good binge read. You can find the collections online at stores such Amazon/Barnes and Noble or other large retailers. Alternatively, any good comic book stores will stick them. You can find your closest at
I have a few questions, I have seen in previous comments that the compendiums seem to be the best root to go. I have never read comics before really but LOVE the walking dead. Do the compendiums come with original comic artwork? What is the difference between compendiums and the omnibus? Where can I buy hardcover or limited editions of the compendiums?
Following in the footsteps of the New York Times best-selling graphic novels and the record-breaking new television show, this debut novel in a trilogy of original Walking Dead books chronicles the back story of the comic book series' greatest villain, The Governor.
The Walking Dead original novel series, set in the universe of Robert Kirkman's iconic universe, continues with The Fall of the Governor. From co-authors Kirkman, creator of the Eisner Award-winning comic book and executive producer of AMC's blockbuster TV series, and Jay Bonansinga, Stoker Award-finalist and internationally acclaimed author, comes the gripping third novel in this richly woven, literary saga, which began with The Walking Dead: Rise of the Governor.
Rick Grimes was a Atlanta police officer. After being shot by criminals, he wakes from a coma in the hospital to see that his town is overrun with walking dead people.[5] He goes to Atlanta, Georgia to look for his wife and son. Rick finds them in a small camp near the city.[6] The group is being led by Shane. Shane was Rick's partner as a police officer. He helped Lori and Carl get to Atlanta.
IGN ranked Rick Grimes as the 26th Greatest Comic Book Hero of All Time in 2011. They said that Kirkman "has an endless supply of [wringers] to run Rick through."[44] IGN ranked Michonne as the 86th Greatest Comic Book Hero of All Time the same year.[45] It ranked the Governor as the 86th Greatest Comic Book Villain of All Time in 2009. They said that he was "a sadistic evil that The Road Warrior forgot."[46] Wizard magazine ranked The Governor as the 131st greatest comic book character of all time.[47]
All hardcovers have the contents of the comics with the covers. Some have extra material. They are larger than the paperbacks. Each hardcover has two story arcs from the series. Signed versions of the books are available, each limited to 310 pieces.
As it heads into its tenth season on AMC, The Walking Dead has more than established itself as a TV show independent of its comic book source material, to the point where the two mediums don't have nearly as much in common now as they did in the earlier years. From main character details to big death switch-ups to location introductions, AMC's The Walking Dead has always found ways to keep comic readers (and non-readers) on their toes. 2b1af7f3a8
