Okay, I'm a trade reader, so a little behind.

I read trade #8, collecting issues 43-48. It came out today and it's always my first read.

I just received and read the latest TWD trade (Vol. 8) today, and...wow! I lost one character who was one of my absolute favorites halfway thru and saw two others die in one of the most gut-wrenching scenes ever published. Devastating stuff!

While waiting nearly two weeks for this trade to reach me, I decided to pick up 49 & 50 at my local CBS (I have one now!!!). I decided, during that wait, that I will now buy each issue as they come out, as the wait between Vols. 7 & 8 was just TOO LONG! I read 49 & 50 immediately after reading the trade.

Thanks guys, for making me part of the Army!

And just when, exactly, is it okay to talk about plot developments here?!?!?!

Yay! A monthly TWD buddy at last! I should be getting 50 this weekend and will post after I read it!

I'm a monthly reader too. Started with issue #40 and TWD always goes to the top of my read list. I don't have any of the trades or the time to read them. Do they include the letters pages? The monthlies are worth picking up for the letters alone.

50 was another great issue, btw. I won't spoil much, but will say that Carl is portrayed as realisitically as any child ever has been in comics.

I have not gotten 50 yet, but I am now reading the monthlies. Beats waiting 6-7 months to catch up.

Number 51 is out. Wow, just wow. This guy can write. Anyone who isn't getting TWD and is tired of the crossover events, mixed up pacing, and substance over style of the big two needs to get on board.

# 51 SPOILER discussion follows! DON'T read this post further if you don't wanna know!
.

OMG. The whole phone-calls and the ultimate reveal that followed is possibly the single creepiest comics moment this year. Yes, creepier than even suicide-by-zombie.

Rick's gone off his rocker, it appears. It might very well be time for him to join the ranks of the dearly departed and focus now on his son.

Well, his son and.... Michonne, if the cover solicit is to be trusted.

I've loved her since she first appeared with her de-armed de-teethed zombie pals in tow. Yes, she needs to be the new focus...

Creepy and heartbreaking all at the same time. I don't know if I feel more sorry for Rick or Carl.

As I have been blocked from Legion World at work, I've had to peruse other MBs, and found a post that displayed TWD covers 52-56 (On the Wizard MB,iirc).....

COVER-BASED SPOILER SPECULATION as well as descriptions of TWD covers 52-56 follow this disclaimer!!

Right
.
.
.
.
.

NOW...


Okay, so those who have read 51 have already seen what is most likely Michonne on the cover of 52. She's back! Yay!

Apparently, 3 more new castmembers are going to debut... don't recognize them from the Mayor's town but they COULD be... one's a heavyset olderish guy, one is a 'macho-man' gun-toter and one appears to be a hot young lady of perhaps (eastern) Indian descent... can't tell for sure, but she's a hottie.

MAJOR SPOILER NEXT!!!!

.
.
.
.


Dale, Andrea (YAY,she ain't dead!!), Sophia, the twins, Glenn and Maggie are coming back.

And the cover to TWD 56 may be the best yet... an obvious homage to Kevin Maguire's Justice League # 1 featuring the new cast assembled in a group shot, staring up at the 'camera' looking all badass. So we have Rick, Carl, Michonne, Dale, Andrea, the twins, Sophia, Maggie, Glenn and the 3 newbies on that cover.

I'm really excited!!

I actually thought Rick going back into the house was the creepiest moment of the issue and maybe even the whole series thusfar.

I am glad to see some of the other castmembers returning, but am a little disappointed by the spoilers on that cover. This is one book that usually surprises the hell out of me, and seeing everyone on the cover kinda ruins that. Not that I'll enjoy the issue any less...but I think you can understand what I mean.

Okay, I need to make a decision. I'm a terrible trade buying fan. I haven't bought a WD trade in months and that trend will likely continue. Should I start buying the monthly and try to catch up when I can? Buy 'em but don't read 'em yet?

Your opinions matter to me Legion World--you tell me!

If catching up is the issue, Cobester, I'd stick with the trades for now. How far have you gotten? In any case, unless the pattern changes (six issues per trade), there's just one more issue to be published before the next edition. If you really want to start getting individual issues, start with 55. That should be the first issue after the forthcoming Vol. 9 trade. It'll be a good time to do so because Kirkman has promised to ship all his comics on time starting in January.

(Volume 8 will kick your ASS! laugh )

In-stock trades is a great website for great discounts on TPBs unless your CBS offers comparable discounts.

I'm only up to volume 3. But I like your plan. I'm a monthly kind of guy--I'll pick up #55 and get it monthly from there and then fill in trades 4-8 ASAP. Christmas is on the horizon and my parents usually get me TPBs--unless of course I decide I can't wait until then.

I got issues 52-53...

I'm glad Rick seems to be getting his head back together. I'll take back my previous call to ditch him. His chat with Michonne also seemed to clear up her mental status as well, and gave them something else to bond about. However, despite Rick's rational explanation of her words and actions, I feel something's gone a little off with li't Sophia.

Looks like gun-toting macho dude will be a good new ally to have around if he isn't all psycho or something. And scientists dude's last-page cliffhanger in issue 53 has me reaLLLLLy excited about next issue.

Looks like a trek might be happening. That's good. Staying put at the farm might make good sense in a real zombie apocalypse, but it won't necessarily make for thrilling reading every month.

TWD rocks.

I liked how #56 turned our expectations around from 55's ending. Also, it looks like we've got a real time bomb waiting to go off...

WHOA. # 57 was one intense issue. I won't spoil anything here.

But the cover for # 58 has me frightened, as does the "The Unthinkable" tagline...

Does Carl get kidnapped... could the villains from # 57 have allies? I don't think Carl's zombiefied and I hope I'm wrong about the allies thing. I'm actually worried and stressed out about this.
