Walking Dead has gone from "That should be ...Yep... Walking Dead has gone from "That should be interesting to read one day..." to MUST BUY. I don't know if I'm going to be able to resist buying the single issues, despite agreeing with you 100% about this story working so much better in trade paperback form. <br /><br />After reading the first four trades of Walking Dead, I was set to proclaim it the best comic currently on the market (excepting Astro City that is? isn't? on the market at this current time). However, the fifth trade paperback stumbled a WEE bit in my estimation. This volume moved the story away from a very realistic portrayal of a group of people trying to hold on to their lives and their sanity while at the same time forming a new society, and introduced a defacto supervillain that for me was just a bit too over the top (for a post-apocalyptic zombie comic, that's saying something). The new villain was just one notch too stylized for the realism this comic has thus far achieved.<br /><br />That said, it's still on the top of my list.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07812513629277933304noreply@blogger.com
