The Walking Dead Book 13 ( Comic Book )




         One of my favorite TV shows is The Walking Dead, but before it was a hit TV show on Sunday nights for AMC it was a comic book. In matter of fact it's still an on going comic book series written by Robert Kirkman and artist Tony Moore. with the first issue being released back in 2003 by image comics. The story follows the life of officer Rick Grimes who get's shot in the line of duty and falls in to a coma only to awake in the middle of a zombie apocalypse. Now i didn't discover The Walking Dead series until 2008 so I was already 5 years behind in back issues that i had to catch up on, then two years later AMC released the Walking Dead TV show and The Walking Dead became super popular. Now back issues were getting more expensive and a little harder to find, most people didn't really get in to the series until late after the TV show came out and discovered it was based off a comic book. So the rush was on to read the comic books and get some back story on the whole series and maybe a jump on the TV series, now I knew of people going to the library and checking out back issues but soon people stopped returning them. And going out and buying all the back issues would be expensive, trust me i know first hand lol. I soon discovered on Amazon these cool hard cover books containing all The Walking Dead issues broken in to 12 volumes, now instead of going out and buying all the back issues you could just buy the volume series and have the whole story of Rick Grimes and his fight for survival in the zombie apocalypse. Each volume contains about 12-15 of the comic book issues in one awesome hard cover book, there are 12 volumes so far with book 13 about to be released on October 11, 2016 . I was able to pick up books 1-12 for about $11.99 - $25.99 on amazon buying some used and the most current ones new, so if your a big Walking Dead fan like I am then these books are a must add for your Walking Dead collection. Heads up before you run out and buy these books, the books tell a similar story as the TV show does, but there are some major difference in the characters mainly on the TV show. You'll know most of the main characters in the comic book series but mite be asking yourself where are some of the characters from the TV show, well the TV was based on the comic book but with some changes to the story line and characters added to the show. But still these books are a great read for any Walking Dead fan, I have included the link where to find these book on Amazon they are also available at most major book retailers. If you do pickup a few of these books to read you won't be disappointed, Happy Readings :-)!!!!
