Just flipped Omnibus #1 again. Thank God for Eric Stephenson. If Kirkman would've stuck with the original pitch and the story planned, it would've flopped.

 

Anyone know why? (shrug)

 

This is the original pitch for Walking Dead ("Dead Planet")

By the way, I would pay a nice finder's fee if anyone can help me locate a copy of this :wishluck:

Directly from Kirkman:

 

"There were only ever about 10 of these made. And it's just photocopies in one of those book report sleeve things--it's not bound or anything.

 

This was never printed elsewhere, all that exists is a cover and five lettered pages.

 

-Robert"

Yes, but it was a long time ago.

 

I think Kirkman mentioned it in the letters page too. I think he said there was a small mistake but didn't say what the mistake actually was.

 

It's very neat. (thumbs u

 

EDIT: It's from issue 71. That's why I remembered his comment.
