So how many issues were made of #1? Does that mean that there were only 7,266 issues printed or just sold?

 

I was told there are less than 7500 copies of #1 printed

Wow. I wonder how much the price will increase for the first 3 issues over the next 10 years.

Really good read. Thought there might have been a few too many splash pages. Are they trying to get Adlard some more advertisement for his OA? But this issue was really good!

 

 

 

I just wonder what is next for Andrea. She has been through (arguably) the most trauma in the series. Rick and Carl will never be the same. The priest is going to have to "man up".

 

I was disappointed that The Hunters really didn't cause too much havoc in the series. I guess I was hoping for more from them. They really only took Dale with them. According to Kirkman's article where he was putting odds on people's deaths, I expected more bloodshed.

 

 

 

 

I completely forgot about that article where Kirkman put odds on people's deaths, but now that you mention it, I was expecting more of the main characters to be be offed in this arc based on that as well.

 

It will be very interesting to see where Krikman takes Andrea and the Priest from here. I agree completely with your points here....

 

(thumbs u

 

 

 

I thought the issue was alright, didnt really have any surprises or anything.

I thought that Rick letting someone come up from behind without confirming identity was really surprising... It coulda been a zombie!

I think the issue showed just how badass this group has gotten at surviving. Great book!

Great issue.

 

 

I thought the way they killed the hunters was WAAAYYY over the top and seemed too easy to do after everything that happened to them. Then, Dale's "Thanks" to Rick really helped bring humanity back into focus for him. Carl's truth bomb show's Rick just how far out of focus they went. Protecting themselves is one thing, but the line they tried to make at murder got blurred way back in the prison.

 

 

Me likey.
