Introducing the first eight volumes of the fan-favorite, New York Times
Best Seller series collected into one massive paperback collection! Collects The
Walking Dead #1-48. This is the perfect collection for any fan of the Emmy
Award-winning television series on AMC: over one thousand pages chronicling the
beginning of Robert Kirkman's Eisner Award-winning continuing story of survival
horror- from Rick Grimes' waking up alone in a hospital, to him and his family
seeking solace on Hershel's farm, and the controversial introduction of Woodbury
despot: The Governor. In a world ruled by the dead, we are finally forced to
finally start living.
"Originally published in single magazine format as The walking dead #1-48 and Image Holiday Special 2005."
The Walking Dead is all about the living, the people who struggle to retain
their humanity in the face of the unspeakable. So what does that mean? What good
is being human when you're no longer the dominant species on the planet? And
what's really left to hold on to? The Walking Dead is an examination of all
those questions and more. -- John Hogan, The Graphic Novel Reporter
