Product Description
At long last, the survivors of Robert Kirkman and Charlie Adlard's acclaimed post-apocalyptic survival adventure find the hope they've longed look for. Can a town not yet ravaged by the horrors unleashed on Earth possibly be all it's hoped for? Is there a far more sinister secret behind their newfound safe haven? Even worse, can people forever changed by the worst in humanity ever hope to get back to their old selves? The next chapter of The Walking Dead is primed to change everything! Reprint Edition

The Walking Dead is up to volume 12 (#67-72 of the comic) & while most writers would be struggling for new ideas by now, Robert Kirkman proves he's still able to pull the rug out from under his readers' feet, as yet again, this series unexpectedly changes direction. Rick & his band of survivors are running low on food as they travel through zombie-infested America towards Washington, in the vain hope that society has not entirely collapsed. They've spent 14 months being tortured, hunted by cannibals & seeing loved ones end up as the living dead & zombie snacks, so the last thing they are expecting to come across is a normal, suburban town full of normal, suburban people!
Walled off from the outside world, kids play & women gossip & bake while the walking dead shamble around outside. Their leader certainly seems a lot more friendly than the Governor (although that's not saying much!) but how can they trust him after everything they've been through? And how will they fit in with 'normal' people after everything they've seen & done - particularly in volume 11?!
I may be an adult but when my copy arrived from Amazon today, I immediately read it from cover to cover like a kid at Christmas. That's because The Walking Dead still surprises & intrigues, still has great characters, great ideas, excellent art & zombies by the shedload. And in this case, it has a last page that left me desperate to get hold of volume 13! If only they could publish them faster...

I mentioned in reviews for the past couple of volumes how I wasn't as impressed with the series and worried it had lost its footing but with this volume it looks like the series is back on track. The volume starts with abruptly ending a subplot that I really didn't enjoy and then has them encounter a roaming guy who invotes them back to a safe haven. Given previous events in the series it's understandable how the gang are wary and suspicious of this new community and it's interesting to see how they try and fit into this new environment. As a reader I too was skeptical of the new characters and spent most of the volume looking for reasons to dislike them but on the whole they appear fairly genuine. If anything this story-arc may be going more in the direction of the main cast turning out to be the "villains" in this arc.
The reintroduction to a "normal" life makes for some excellent character scenes where many of the cast are seen in a new light. I'm not sure how long this arc will last or what the outcome will be but it's just nice to have the series back on form and hopefully the last couple of volumes were merely a blip.

After reading comics for about 15 years I stopped for a while. Eventually getting back a bit through the walking dead.
The Walking dead is hands down the best comic story I've ever read and this volume just continues what is in my opinion the most solid run on a comic book ever.
A must have.
