The Walking Dead was first, a graphic
novel, written by Robert Kirkman and Illustrated by Tony Moore. It
follows Rick Grimes and his family as they survive a zombie
apocalypse.
In 2010, The Walking Dead
received the 2010 Eisner
Award for Best Continuing Series at San
Diego Comic-Con International. It was also adapted into a TV
series, loosely based on the comic book series.
The Walking Dead TV series has become
highly successful, with 5.35 million viewers on it's very first
episode to 17 million viewers tuning in for the premiere of season 5.
...But wait! There's more!
There are also Webisodes which are a
series of short videos which tell the back story of some of the
characters seen on the TV series, including the back story of Hannah,
the half torso Zombie Rick stumbles upon in season 1.
...And if you thought that was all,
then you're in for a treat because there's still more!
Coming in 2015 is “Fear of the
Walking Dead”. Set in Los Angeles we follow a divorced teacher,
Sean Cabrera (Cliff Curtis) and a guidance counselor who is a single
mum of 2 and is said to be the girl next door with an edge Nancy
Tomkins (Kim Dickens) along with others in a kind-of prequel set just
as the zombie apocalypse began. We'll see how humanity handled the
epidemic and perhaps discover how it started. Get ready for it's release in July this year!
Secure your doors and barricade your windows! The Walking Dead are taking over... well, maybe just the entertainment industry.
Sweet Dreams
