300?!? That's another 20-plus years(if he actually managed to get it out monthly, LOL). I guess I should get thos first 8 issues I'm missing now then. If the series actually did go on that long, they actually could be worth quite a bit, esp. considering the low print run on the first few.

Yeah I just re-read it and he says that he has a roadmap to get to issue 300 so who knows how much the first 10 issues will be worth if it ever goes that far.

I just reread #51...

One thing, what a cop out by Kirkman. I can't believe I just over looked it the first time...but Them being handed a car, loaded with supplies AND extra gas..just because some guy decided to get out and walk around and then get attacked by zombies, and then by chance they happen upon it, is just dumb.

That's really really lazy writing.

This book has been dragging for a while. I miss it's glory days...

I totally agreed, I really enjoied only the first 15-20 issues....I just read issues 30-36 and I was bored. Right now this book is not my top five

I just started reading this series and I started off by picking up the newest issue, #52 i believe... I haven't read it yet but I had gone on to the official site and red the full Issue #1 In hopes to get me started. Now Im wondering if I should go back and read all the others before #52 or is it ok to start with 52. :hmmmm:

If you choose to make #52 your starting point, you'd be doing yourself a gigantic disservice.  Trust me, it's worth it to grab the trades and catch-up as quickly as possible.

Plus, the newer stuff just doesn't do the Older stuff when it comes to Walking dead any Justice. The book has fallen off a bit. I don't think Kirkman would draw as many readers to the book with where he's at right now with the writing in the book...compared to how good it was when it first started.

Just finished 52 and I was hoping that they would start fresh from the old characters but they brought back a few of them, although it does seem that some new meat will be showing up next issue.

This is still a staple and a must read.  I have recommended this to so many new readers and they eat it up (no pun intended)....I for one am looking forward to seeing where this goes.
