...You just wanna keep him all to yourself, don'tcha?
So Lori was originally Carol? It's interesting to see Rick and Carl(by name only) were in the initial pitch. I'm glad Kirkman went the way he did, having Rick wake up to a world already engulfed in the "zombie apocalypse", though the pitch scenario's pretty funny... "War of the Worlds", I'd probably be leery at first, too...
Thanks, Scott!

The good news is zombeaver upkeep is surprisingly easy... just lock'em away in a dogcrate and keep stuffing old MILENNIUM and NEW GUARDIANS books in there.
They're surprisingly content.

Say-- It works with LADY DEATH and EVIL ERNIE titles, too! Cleans up unwanted comics AND it's nutritious! ...For zombeavers in captivity, of course.
I'm afraid to try all those early Image titles, though... Maybe it's some zombeaver antivirus...

Just don't feed him any Liefeld issues. I don't know if it will "kill" him or mutate him further. Most likely the latter.

There's some serious buzz about the upcoming arc, and I won't be reading it til it's over and they've moved on. (I'm a trade reader.) I may finally convice a trio of friends to start buying the monthlies.

Okay, a minor peeve... but it's difficult reading the second HC and being able to tell where the individual issues stop and start. I wish they'd put the covers between "episodes" instead of all collected in the back.
Of course, I'm only b!tc#in' because I ended up reading what -was- labeled as Chapter Three: Safety Behind Bars all in one sitting... I didn't know where to stop 'til I reached the next chapter... what was that, six issues' worth...?
(Thanks to Scooter for filling in the issues I was missing electronically so I could finally -start- reading Vol.2, btw...

Last night I re-read all my TWD issues in one sitting (the first 2 trades, and issues 35-42), and began to have no trouble identifying characters. Even my gap in issues wasn't too jarring and I was able to identify (or figure out) everyone. It just needed a re-read.
And I am now more than ever ready to fill in the gaps. Gotta get the third trade next Friday!
Carol's death in 41-42 was particularly horrifying. A new way to commit suicide. Poor Sophia.
But if there's one thing we learned from the barn in the second trade, it's NEVER a good idea to keep ANY of the zombies around.

Man! The trades and HC's for Walking Dead are RED-HOT on eBay! I've recently been prospecting for TPBs there based on Scott's (and friends!) word of mouth. They've got plenty of multiple-TPB lots there, but I'm not finding the bargains I like to get. Just lost a lot for the first 4 TPBs (used) that went for $31 (including shipping). Not exactly sky-high, but I'm a little squeamish about going too high for something I've never even sampled before.
I'll keep plugging though, and possibly going higher in future auctions, but I'll need some spoiler-free reinforcement about how great the product is, okay?
BTW, what do the trades retail for? They're all six issues per? And what do the hardcovers retail for?
