The Walking Dead

The Walking Dead
Adult Graphic Novels-Main level - WAL

This graphic novel is about police officer Rick Grimes who gets shot during a traffic stop. He awakens to find himself in an empty hospital and a world full of zombies. The plot follows his journey to find his family, help other survivors, and simply stay alive. The black and white illustrations add to the creepy feeling of the book and left me thinking of the classic movie “Night of the Living Dead.”

Like many good zombie stories, this one is just as much about how people react during time of crisis as it is about the reanimated corpses. The drama among the living is powerful and can be just as scary as the zombies. I greatly enjoyed the AMC television version that aired during the fall and finally got around to reading the graphic novel. It did not disappoint. Both the graphic novels and the TV series are highly recommended! However, due to graphic content I would recommend this graphic novel for mature readers.
