The Walking Dead is really kind of "meh".

[SuperBird]

really. I read them all. And I just don't get the hubbub. Is it just me?

yes

[Cimm]

Yes. It is the best post-Zombie apocalypse story ever!

2nd!

 

Read the rules you can not insult bash or dislike or the walking dead in the modern section

It has been slow for these since 48-50 but I thought it was superb up to that point. Some intriguing concepts have been thrown out since those issues but it is mostly just resting on its laurels now. The latest image gives me hope though.

It's probably a side affect of being ripped through space and time from the 1920's, which is the last time the word "hubbub" would have been acceptable parlance.

...but we still say "hubbub" up here too.

Ayuh, had a great crop this year. Had some Sunday.

Based on all the hype here, I bought the first trade and found the storytelling to be rather choppy. It got better in trades 2 and 3. I'm also annoyed that we apparently will never know what caused the zombie invasion in the first place. (Unless Kirkman has changed his mind on that. I'm a bit out of the loop.)

 

Overall, I enjoy what I've read but I'm not gaga about it.

But that is the best part. There is no need to know. The only thing that counts is survival and that has proven difficult.

 

It is always a top of pile book for me.

I can understand why some might not like it. It is very character driven. I have read most of the trades and I dig it. The antagonists in the series are pretty intense and I think that's what keeps me interested.

[comicalgems]

DUDUUUUDE!

 

How Cool Are These!?!

[comix4fun]

I'm not gaga

 

 

 

That's not what you said when you performed at my Bar Mitzvah after-party.

WHAAAA??

 

This is almost as good as Tiger Vs. Shark!!!!

 

almost.....

I'm borderline giving some WD books away in the sales thread section and only one nibble, I'm starting to think the OP might be onto something.

I read the first two trades ( they were given to me) - I found the storytelling to be above average, but I didn't get hooked - and I found the art to be merely adequate. I haven't had an interest in reading more - and enjoyed The Zombies that Ate the World by Guy Davis and Jerry Frissen more.

I can see how it would make an excellent TV series though, especially with AMC behind it.

I find The Walking Dead to be very "meh" as well. I'm also trying to figure out what all the "hubbub" is about puppies, sex, pizza, women, ice cream and beer as well.

 

I'm sticking with my non "meh" super hero books like Batman and Green Lantern and Deadpool and Wolverine. I like to read them all night long with my 15 cats curled up next to me. Those books are totally awesome and make me cool to read them! They deserve the "hubbub" from other 20-70 year old men like me!

 

Anyone want to meet up and play some Warhammer dressed up like japanimals?
