I wouldn't read too deeply into that. AFAIK they are going to be shooting straight through from one season to the next. All signs are pointing to this being a huge hit for AMC, everyone involved thinks that highly of the work being done.

Bought these on the strength of the views on here and was not disappointed. Best books I have read for a while. Could be an expensive habit!

Surely this many moderators can't be wrong

I've treated myself to this:
The Walking Dead Compendium Volume 1: Amazon.co.uk: Charlie Adlard, Cliff Rathburn, Robert Kirkman: Books
and if anyone tells me that I've gone for the wrong version, it'll be headshots all round

Ermm... While there's no "wrong" versions, I tend to stay away from compendiums unless the series is complete and you know you can get all of them - otherwise you end up either having one compendium edition then a whole bunch of single-editions, or you're completely beholden to the publishers to print another one. With eight graphic novels to one compendium (in this case), and volume 13 only just being released recently, you may be in for a long wait for the volume 2 compendium edition...


(wow, how many times can you use the word compendium in one sentence without it getting really tedious typing the bloody word?!).

I agree with NewMan, but you do end up with the same thing at the end of the day, it just takes a little longer to get hold of it all, a lot of people prefer to get the compendiums - some people buy both to satisfy their needs.


In other news just over 2 weeks until the TV series

Cheers Newman - I'm not much of a collector, so once I've read this compendium, I'll probably switch to the normal volumes for my next fix and go from there.

However you read them, in whatever format, you won't be disappointed.

Just finished volume 11 and it's nice to see they've kept the quality up.

Newman is right - some of us are a bit fickle with how things are printed - and like the hardcover versions of Y The Last Man, I stayed away from them as they where lagging behind the normal softback versions.

If they released them at the same time, there would be no problem, but it seems that in graphic novel form there is no proper order like how books are released (Hardback, large trade, normal paperback) they can release it, then go back and make more expensive editions after the fact.
