The Walking Dead gets an air date

Very unoriginally, the series will premiere on 31st October (Halloween) in the US, according to Total Sci-Fi. There's no word on when it will get here, if at all, but I remain hopeful.

BTW, I'm REALLY excited about this show. Just recently began reading the graphic novels, and plowed through them in a month. Up through vol. 11, I'm still waiting for 12 which is on order at the library.

I haven't really seen the graphic novels around here much but I am sorely tempted to give them a go too.

DO IT! I think it's the most engrossing graphic novel series I've ever read, not that I've read a lot of them. But it's so shocking. It goes to these really dark places where I'm like, "Oh no, they're not gonna go there...Oh wait, yes they are!" And it blows my mind.

I also like how it explores the darkness inside each one of us. Like what we would do in that situation, and how far would we go to survive? And at one point I realized there are humans in the story that are worse monsters than the zombies.

Now that sounds very interesting - I've just noticed that the newsletter from my nearest comic book store has a whole pile of new Walking Dead TPB's so I may have to invest in a few.

Keep me updated on what you think of them if you do.

Will do - I might also look in the local library to see if there are any TPB's there.

Library is where to go. That's how I got caught up so fast. :)

The library here is pretty good - and the very first TPB they put on the shelves was Fray, so they have good taste too!
