About this ebook

How many hours are in a day when you don't spend half of them watching television? When is that last time any of us REALLY worked to get something that we wanted? How long has it been since any of us really NEEDED something that we WANTED? The world we knew is gone. The world of commerce and frivolous necessity has been replaced by a world of survival and responsibility. An epidemic of apocalyptic proportions has swept the globe, causing the dead to rise and feed on the living. In a matter of months society has crumbled, no government, no grocery stores, no mail delivery, no cable TV. In a world ruled by the dead, we are forced to finally begin living.

Ratings and reviews

Well done series and it has become successful that it spawned a tel tale game series and a show! This comic series is awesome and a must read for horror and survival fans, in short a zombie comic or survival story done right.

Great reading. Story-telling and character's spot on. Like the way the world is illustrated and drawn.Draw's you in more.

Wow, I really like the tv series and then I started reading the comics. I have a newfound appreciation for comics, especially the walking dead. This is absolutely awesome fine work, both story telling and art.
