The Walking Dead won the 2010 Eisner Award for best continuing series so I decided to give it a chance starting with book one and see how it goes. The first thing I noticed is how uninspired the black and white artwork is. If this series excels it's clearly going to have to be through the writing because the art won't be winning any awards. The artist changes halfway through but the improvement is only slight. In case it isn't obvious from the title this is a zombie comic. After five weeks in a coma, Officer Rick Grimes wakes to find the hospital he was staying in empty save for a room full of rotting undead who proceed to attack him. From there the story continues in a rather predictable fashion. What I really wanted to see was something new in a genre that's been done to death (no pun intended). The Walking Dead's advantage is that as an ongoing series it has the luxury to explore life in a Zombie infested world in far more detail than a movieBook one collects the first twelve issues of the series that started way back in 2003 so the series has likely gone through changes since its humble beginnings. At least I would assume since there is nothing here that would come close to meriting a prestigious Eisner award and 2010 is the first year it's won anything as far I can see. The dialogue is clunky, the plot is bland and derivative and the characters are totally forgettable. At one point all the characters are sitting around a campfire telling about their lives prior to the zombies and it turns out that they are the most boring people on gods green earth. The author couldn't even come up with unique boring characters as two of the characters introduced in this book were used car salesmen. There wasn't any tension in the story because I never really cared about the safety of any characters. Actually I kind of wished they would die so the story could perhaps move on to a more interesting group. In fact I think the first twelve issues could have benefited greatly by making it a series of shorter stories in the zombie world so we wouldn't have to be trapped with these same tedious characters. Of course that assumes that Robert Kirkman is capable of coming up with interesting characters. There was one character named Glenn who was mildly interesting but of course he left the group before the end of the book.None of the characters ever question WHY the dead are attacking the living so there's no mystery or intrigue. I don't care about the characters so there's no suspense and it's all so benign that there isn't the least bit of fright. So what's left? Dialogue. Lots and lots of mind numbing, soap opera level dialogue. In one section I counted 43 pages in a row dense with dialogue and not hide nor hair of a zombie. It wouldn't be so bad if the dialogue was compelling but it isn't. I never realized until I read this book that it was possible for a comic character to overact.So now I'm faced with a big dilemma. Do I cut my losses at one book or do I continue on under the assumption that the series will improve to the point of being an award winner. I really do want to love this one or at least like it. Perhaps the series does improve significantly - the jury is out on that one. What I can say is that THIS book is vastly overrated and in no way deserves the four and a half stars it currently holds on Amazon. Despite the nice hardcover I cannot possibly recommend paying thirty dollars for this book. The ONLY way I could justify it is if the series gets way better and after reading an Amazon review of book two it sounds like the series stays the same or possibly gets worse. I've made my choice and I'm bailing. It would take at least seven hardcover volumes to get to the issues that won the Eisner and I'm just not willing to spend the time, money and storage space necessary to take the risk that it's a deserving Eisner winner.
I got the kindle version and it was hard to read the larger panels on my small phone screen. It was perfectly fine on a larger tablet.If you are a fan of the show and haven't read this, I will warn you that there are substantial differences. It is as if a drunk person explained the plot of the comic books to the screenwriter in a loud bar, and them the screenwriter wrote the show from memory a month later. This is to say that the 'highlights' from the comics made it to the show, but it is still a different story.People are on here trying to review this with deep literary analysis techniques, as if this were Shakespear or Proust or something. This is a comic about zombies. There are many like it, but this is the best one.If you like the show, you will like the comics. I promise. They complement each other, but are different enough to warrant spending time on both.
I bought this after watching the first 7 seasons of the TV show (and being severely disappointed with it from about season 4 onward), and it’s GREAT. I’m so grateful that the TV show inspired me to check out the comic, because the comic is better in many ways—but also, it’s different enough from the TV show that it’s engaging even from the pure plot and character development perspective, since people and events diverge so frequently from what I expect from watching the series.I’ve ordered (but not yet received) the next two volumes of the compendia [shifts glasses up nose], based on how good this volume is. Already, there are so many things that are different from the series, that I’m on the edge of my seat just wondering how things can possibly turn out here.HUGE SPOILERS for those who don’t care about surprises but want to get a sense of how different the comic is from the series: So there’s no Daryl, Merle, or Beth; Sophia, Lori, and Dale live but Carol dies; Carol is a needy sex freak; Rick loses his right hand early on; Michonne shacks up with Tyreese, Andrea shacks up with Dale; they never use the term “walkers†but DO discuss terminology periodically; Glenn isn’t a virgin at the beginning.
I've purchased all volumes up to 22 and the TV show has just about caught up to wear I am in the novels. These books are friggen awesome. I don't read much and my buddy lent me VOL 1 after he knew I liked the show. Well, I burned through the first one and then just went on a tear buying 4 volumes at a time...the price is pretty good for what you get out of these. $9-$15 is the range I've paid per novel, I'm not sure why they aren't the same but anyways, I keep buying them none the less. The story was written before the TV Show and the show follows the story but there is some differences. The written story is more violent and graphic then the tv show but the tv show does a decent job of sticking with main ideas. I've noticed that certain plot things that happen in the book also happen in the show but there is a unique twist like a different character it happens to or something like that. Which makes reading these volumes great cuz I have some idea of where the story is going (after having watched all tv episodes) but there are still surprises. If you like the TV show and haven't read these, give it a try and you will get a whole new experience of the Walking Dead story. I'm putting this same review under every volume I've purchased (1-22) so people can see it. go buy these!
