I understand that Dale's jealous of the time that Andrea and Tyreese have been spending together, but he needs to get over it. No one likes it when their partner is jealous and lets it take over everything.
Also, Rick didn't help matters by calling Dale an old man. I know he was trying to get Dale to understand that Andrea and Tyreese are just friends, but he went about it the wrong way.
Rick's the last one to be calling Carol's behavior erratic. His behavior's the most erratic of them all. He constantly switches between good trustworthy guy, into complete and utter psycho in the space of a minute.
I didn't like how Rick and Lori went from talking about Carol and her behavior one second, to Judith in the next. The transition from one conversation to the next was full of flaws.
Andrea calling Dale an old man so soon after Rick did, is hurting Dale's feelings. Add to that, that Dale thinks Andrea's cheating on him with Tyreese, and Dale has a right to be upset.
Glenn and Maggie's conversation about them starting a family was a much needed one. I agree with what Maggie said about them not waiting until they get to a safer place, that the prison might be as safe as they'll ever get.
I think they should go ahead and have kids. If they don't have them now, I doubt they ever will. There isn't ever going to be a right time to have kids, given the situation they're in.
While I like that Andrea and Alice were actually talking instead of ignoring each other, I found their conversation about clothes to be boring and useless and just waste of time.
I didn't like how Maggie spoke to her Dad when he asked her not to curse so much. Hershel didn't do anything wrong, and Maggie needs to stop acting like a bitch.
She can express her opinions without cursing like a sailor and offending her father or anyone else. Just needs to watch the things that come out of her mouth.
I didn't care much for the religious talk between Hershel and Maggie. It just bothers me that every time crappy stuff happens, the religious people see it as a sign that something good is about to happen. Just accept the situation you're in and deal with it.
Andrea's stupid for stopping Maggie from shooting that female zombie. Why the hell WOULDN'T Andrea want it dead? A zombie is a zombie and needs to be put down.
I'm with Rick. Alice is dumb to bring the damn zombie inside and then to put her back to it. I thought this woman was supposed to be smart? Seems like she doesn't possess a lick of sense.
Rick's a dumbass for letting Alice keep her pet zombie. Hope the damn thing bites her stupid ass. That would be what she would deserve for putting them all at risk with her stupid idea.
It was weird when Carol randomly asked Lori if she would take care of Sophia if something happened to her. It makes me think that Carol's going to go and do something stupid again.
Yeah, Carol walking off after asking Lori to take care of Sophia, definitely makes me think she's gonna go do some dangerous shit again. Maybe someone should just kill her already.
Really, Carol? You're feeling bad about yourself, so you go and throw yourself at some damn kid? I mean I know Billy's 19, but compared to you, he's still a kid. I find it gross.
Well, from the looks of the panel that showed Dale's face, we can tell that he's still jealous of Andrea and Tyreese spending time together. I think Dale's seeing things that aren't there.
Why the fuck is Carol standing right next to that zombie? She's way too close to it, and why the hell is she talking to the damn thing, anyway? Some bad shit's about to happen, I bet.
What the fuck?! Carol just fed herself to a zombie! The dumb bitch! What about Sophia for God sakes? You selfish little bitch, you should've thought about your child before acting so stupid.

Being a huge fan of the show, I wanted to see how the original writing started and how the show writers followed and deviated from the comics. My dislikes were that the comics are much more crude, crass, and unnecessarily violent. I did like the change in relationships and how people worked together differently, and the comics have a different creepiness feel than you get watching it on TV. Overall, I prefer the show, and probably will not finish out the comic book series.

This is a review of the entire series.
Rick Grimes is a strong-willed deputy who missed the end of the world because he was in a coma for a month after getting shot in the line of duty. Shaken, starving and confused, Rick escapes the horror of the abandoned hospital only to be met with something far more terrible. Not only has the world ended, but the dead have learned to walk and to kill without mercy. After learning that his wife and son have fled to Atlanta from a single survivor and his son, Rick goes on a journey to reunite with his family and search for more survivors.
Rick quickly has to come to terms with the fact that the world has ended and only a select few survived. The dead have risen from their graves and they prey on the living. In a world where every minute feels like hours, where there's no such thing as law and order, where finding a small meal is a tremendous task, the walking dead are quite possibly the least threatening thing for the survivors to have on their breaking minds. Humanity is pushed to the brink of destruction, forcing them to embrace their cruel and primal nature in order to survive. Sometimes you have to be more concerned about who you let into your community so they don't kill you in your sleep and steal everything you once cared about. Rick has no choice but to abandon the ways of law and order that he's upheld as an officer for so long in order to protect the few loved ones he has left. He has to become a monster to protect his crew or risk being devoured by those who became more monstrous than him and even the walking dead.
Despite zombies running the world and having the series named after them, what really sets this series apart from the average zombie apocalypse tale is the focus on realism and the daily struggles, flaws and depth of the characters. There's plenty of badass zombie killing action, but the action often takes a back seat to give the characters plenty of times to share their extremely tragic yet endearing stories, grow through mutual suffering and learn to adapt to a world that has left them to die. Even after the world has ended, many people still can't see eye to eye. They turn on each other and kill each other when they should come together. Others form alliances in spite of their differences and try to rebuild over the corpse of everything that was lost. The daily human drama and conflict is more intense than any monster apocalypse could hope to be.
We watch Rick struggle to balance his old moral code with the many necessary evils he has to commit in order to survive and make the world a better place for the ones he holds close. We watch people like Glen, Dale and Maggie attempt to find love in spite of having every reason to be filled with fear, hate and self-loathing. Characters like Michonne have to learn how to forgive themselves and convince themselves they deserve to be loved despite all the blood on their hands. We watch the weak like Carl and Andrea become strong and sometimes the strong become evil like The Governor. Even monsters like the wicked yet oddly lovable Negan are given the chance to find new ways of redeeming themselves by struggling alongside the other survivors that have all been changed by the horrors of the fallen world.
The pacing is extremely slow and I can understand why that may be a turnoff for a lot of people, but I eventually learned to enjoy watching the characters grow, overcome their trauma, find meaning in life and learn to love again. The characters are forced to do many terrible things to survive and it haunts them every waking moment. The ways they overcome these regrets is very realistic, human and hopeful. The slow pacing really gives the feeling that we're living beside these people. The way every tiny detail of their lives and who they are is explored makes them feel very real and believable.
When I first started reading the series, I wasn't expecting it to have such an uplifting ending. It seemed so bleak and nihilistic for a long time and things would go horribly wrong even when they seemed to be going so well, but the finale channels all the pain, suffering and betrayal of the previous volumes and tops it off with a very touching and inspiring finish. This was never a story about hopelessness. It's about learning to appreciate the little things, learning to forgive yourself and learning to move on even when it's hard. When everything seems lost there's always more to be found, even when we believe otherwise because we convince ourselves that we don't deserve to be happy ever again. Instead of dwelling on what was lost, strive to try and make things better than they were before.
I've never been a huge fan of zombie apocalypse stories, but The Walking Dead had enough heart and strong social commentary to make me stick by the characters until the end and I enjoyed every moment of their long trial.

Carol? Why? F*ckin crazy. Ugh. Poor Sofia.
September 9, 2016
Just when you thought it was falling into a rut, in steps the dramatic twist.
October 26, 2024
After the relative calm and emotional buildup of Issue #40, I felt like Issue #41 was going to bring the kind of storm that makes all that simmering tension explode. The stakes seemed ready to tip from personal struggles to something darker and more chaotic, and this issue didn't disappoint. It brings raw conflict, heartbreak, and decisions with permanent consequences—an emotional and psychological maelstrom that doesn’t hold back.
The issue opens with Dale struggling with jealousy over Andrea and Tyreese’s friendship, feeding his growing resentment and insecurity. His mood is darker and his self-worth is plummeting, largely influenced by his own sense of inadequacy and fear of losing Andrea. It’s a side of Dale that, while understandable given his injuries, paints a much more bitter picture of him than his TV portrayal. Rick’s encouragement, though a valiant effort, does little to shake Dale from his downward spiral. There’s a deep sadness in watching a character once full of wisdom and compassion become so consumed by bitterness and self-doubt.
We then see a rare, heartwarming moment with Carl. Lori and Rick observe how independent he’s becoming, with Lori commenting on his growth and resilience in this brutal world. It’s bittersweet to see the innocence of childhood slipping away, though Lori clings to Judith as a reminder of simpler times, symbolizing a tiny shred of normalcy in their fractured lives. There’s a fleeting calm here, which makes the rest of the issue’s events feel all the more shocking.
Switching to Maggie and Glenn, their discussion about starting a family throws up some moral and practical conflicts. Maggie’s optimism shines through; she feels that perhaps the prison is a safe enough haven to bring a child into the world. Glenn, ever cautious, disagrees. His hesitancy emphasizes how grim the world outside is. The contrast between Maggie’s desire to look forward and Glenn’s urge to remain cautious feels like a fundamental debate on what survival in their reality actually means: survival for today or a hope for a future?
Then, as the group goes outside to clear roamers near the prison, Andrea takes on a leadership role, instructing Maggie and the others on security protocols. Tensions arise when Maggie questions Andrea’s approach, revealing how everyone’s nerves are fraying. Hershel’s calm yet firm reminder about taking the mission seriously is much-needed, grounding Andrea in the task at hand. Hershel’s faith and optimism come through strongly here, which is heartwarming but also carries a sense of foreboding—faith alone won’t keep them safe.
A particularly intense moment comes as Alice and Rick discuss chaining up a zombie for observation. Alice hopes to understand the disease, believing they might eventually develop a cure, while Rick’s skepticism underscores his focus on immediate survival over idealistic pursuits. This conflict epitomizes the tension between survival instinct and the human drive to solve problems, even amidst overwhelming tragedy.
The issue’s biggest shock comes in Carol’s story. Her recent attempts to find acceptance and stability have been desperate, to the point of self-destruction. She discusses her abuse and insecurities with Lori, and, in a shocking decision, she propositions Billy—a much younger and impressionable member of the group. Her actions reveal a fractured psyche, one that’s struggling to cope with loneliness and trauma.
Finally, in a devastating scene, Carol approaches the chained zombie, expressing how alone she feels among the survivors. Her desperation is painfully raw, and then she does the unthinkable—she lets the zombie bite her neck, ending her own life in a shocking act of self-destruction. It’s horrifying and heartbreaking, encapsulating how some of these characters can’t cope with their inner turmoil in a world that no longer provides any emotional or psychological support.
This issue is a standout because it digs deep into the emotional wounds these characters carry. Dale’s bitterness, Maggie’s optimism about family, Carol’s broken psyche, and Rick’s survival-driven skepticism—all contribute to a nuanced, painful depiction of how complex and fractured people become in extreme situations.
Carol’s decline in particular resonated heavily; her actions seem erratic, but beneath them is a deep loneliness and loss of identity. Her death by zombie feels almost poetic—she chose the very thing that threatens them daily to end her suffering, which is a darkly fitting testament to her internalized despair. It’s hard not to feel anger, pity, and immense sadness all at once.
This issue didn’t bring the kind of physical confrontation I initially expected, but the emotional conflicts and internal battles are just as intense, if not more so. It’s a powerful reminder that the true horrors in The Walking Dead are often not the undead but the emotional toll and mental unraveling of the survivors themselves.

My least favorite out of this volume. I really didn't understand what was going on with Alice and Carol. Carol is so different from the one I love in the TV series. Not a bad issue to read, but not one of my favorites.
March 22, 2018
¡Joder, no entiendo porque Carol ha hecho eso! ¡Solo por ese final inesperado le doy la máxima nota! La cosa vuelve a subir de nivel, desde luego supera a la serie en muchos aspectos.
March 29, 2018
At the end of it it reminded me of Lizzy. Thank God Carol is different in the tv series. It's so weird. Everything is weird. Maybe I'm too used to the tv series instead of the comics.

Again an interlude issue, showing the relative safety of the group. But are they?
November 14, 2019
Ugh I hate comic Carol so glad they changed her for the show.
December 26, 2021
I was hooked the first couple pages, love the art and especially the zombies and the post apocalyptic setting 😻🤩🧟♂️🔥🔫
June 21, 2022
Carol seems to embrace well this situation.

The whole Carol thing is cool and interesting but I just never quite bought it.

The survivors in the penitentiary continue to try to find balance in a world full of zombies.
Previously. Dale was bitten by a zombie, but luckily there was time to sever his foot before the bite could kill him. Alice was able to clean and seal off the wound, ensuring Dale doesn't die of blood loss or infection. While healing from his wound, Dale noticed Andrea and Tyreese were growing close to each other. Too close.
The Weird. Carol has been acting distant and weird. Now with her being so forceful about making Lori promise her she would look after Sophia, then sleeping with Billy, and then going and "talking" with the walker, although still shocking, it was as though she was having a last go at tying up lose ends before she left.
The Best. Lori has taken responsibility for Sophia if anything happens to Carol. First, I am happy that Sophia will be looked after with how unstable Carol is being but lets face it, Lori isn't all that stable herself at times. She's not suicidal granted, but still, she blows up and tries to go against most of Rick's decisions. Plus, they already have Carl and now Judith to worry about, and with Rick being injured it just keeps adding up.
The Worst.
Dale taking to being called old man the worst of ways. Now after he is injured it seems to bother him more than ever. He sees the way Andrea and Tyreese are "getting along" together.
Andrea being on edge when taking the more experienced shooters for practice and then Maggie and Hershel getting into a debt about the bible and not having a potty mouth. I place this on worst mainly because although the conversations are fitting and Andrea being on edge suits the atmosphere, I think Hershel trying to rule over Maggie is a bit thick in the world as it is now. I know Hershel will always be Maggie's father, and he has every right to try and talk sense into her, or get onto her about her language when around him, but I also see that Maggie is a grown woman now. Not only is she married, but she also has lived! And it seems that everyone has to grow up in this new world whether they want to or not, and Hershel needs to let go of the previous notions of ruling over his daughter.
Alice brings in a walker. I understand the need that Alice has to understand the walkers and the disease, but has she not learned anything from Woodbury and even the strange mesh of people she is living around. Walkers are not to be messed with. Even when you think you have things under complete control, it only takes one close step, one forgetful watch, one incomplete locking of a chain or door. Everything about Rick allowing the walker into the courtyard is just wrong.
Tyreese and Andrea do seem to be getting closer and closer. However, I don't think it's anything more than friendship. First, Tyreese just went through some pretty hellish times with Carol and Michonne. Carol tries to kill herself because she can't cope with Tyreese cheating on her with Michonne. Michonne, after being raped and beaten by the Governor finally breaks down in Tyreese's arms and then ends up in his bed. I don't think Tyreese is wanting nor willing to start anything with another man's woman.
The Differences.
Carol never asks Lori to keep watch over Sophia. Sophia is long past dead at this point in the show.
Tyreese and Andrea are just friends, after having met at Woodbury and finding out from them that Rick and the group are in the prison.
Carol doesn't go off the deep end and let a walker bite her, nor is she suicidal, even after Sophia dies.
Dale ends up dying at the farm, so never has his leg cut off and is nothing more than a father figure to Andrea.
Those Remembered. Walkers, at shooting practice.
Recommend. To fans of the Walking Dead Universe, Robert Kirkman, Charlie Adlard, Cliff Rathburn, Rus Wooton, horror dramas, zombies, plagues, and apocalypse stories.

Issue#: 41
The survivors in the penitentiary continue to try to find balance in a world full of zombies.
Previously. Dale was bitten by a zombie, but luckily there was time to sever his foot before the bite could kill him. Alice was able to clean and seal off the wound, ensuring Dale doesn't die of blood loss or infection. While healing from his wound, Dale noticed Andrea and Tyreese were growing close to each other. Too close.
The Weird. Carol has been acting distant and weird. Now with her being so forceful about making Lori promise her she would look after Sophia, then sleeping with Billy, and then going and "talking" with the walker, although still shocking, it was as though she was having a last go at tying up lose ends before she left.
The Best. Lori has taken responsibility for Sophia if anything happens to Carol. First, I am happy that Sophia will be looked after with how unstable Carol is being but lets face it, Lori isn't all that stable herself at times. She's not suicidal granted, but still, she blows up and tries to go against most of Rick's decisions. Plus, they already have Carl and now Judith to worry about, and with Rick being injured it just keeps adding up.
The Worst.
Dale taking to being called old man the worst of ways. Now after he is injured it seems to bother him more than ever. He sees the way Andrea and Tyreese are "getting along" together.
Andrea being on edge when taking the more experienced shooters for practice and then Maggie and Hershel getting into a debt about the bible and not having a potty mouth. I place this on worst mainly because although the conversations are fitting and Andrea being on edge suits the atmosphere, I think Hershel trying to rule over Maggie is a bit thick in the world as it is now. I know Hershel will always be Maggie's father, and he has every right to try and talk sense into her, or get onto her about her language when around him, but I also see that Maggie is a grown woman now. Not only is she married, but she also has lived! And it seems that everyone has to grow up in this new world whether they want to or not, and Hershel needs to let go of the previous notions of ruling over his daughter.
Alice brings in a walker. I understand the need that Alice has to understand the walkers and the disease, but has she not learned anything from Woodbury and even the strange mesh of people she is living around. Walkers are not to be messed with. Even when you think you have things under complete control, it only takes one close step, one forgetful watch, one incomplete locking of a chain or door.

Last TWD comic I read was back in November so yeah, I'm a little rusty when it comes to what the hell happened in the last comic.
However I think I've got the gist of what's going on.
Dale be jealous. And Carol be crazy.
To be honest no one likes a jealous partner and I kind of hope Andrea gets with Tyreese because, well, not to be ageist but Dale's ancient, Andrea shouldn't waste her life with some 70 odd year fella. And Carol. Ah Carol. In the TV show you're a badass mother fugger but in the comics, you're some weird, creepy ass mother fugger. Well I wanted to like her, I hoped she'd develop into the badass we see on screen but I guess that'll never happen what with her trying to befriend a zombie only for that zombie to give her a love bite on her neck. Bye gurl, you probably were one of the most pointless characters in the comics.
I'm interested to see how this will effect the group with keeping a zombie around since Alice (who I'm pretty sure is Milton from the show at this point) wants to experiment/learn from it.

So, some of our intrepid characters attempt to be more proactive about their potential threats, while others attempt to act like life can be normal. Our bat ish crazy character manages to do something extremely bat ish crazy and well.... wow.

Me resulta inquietante que Rick diga que las cosas van a salir mal y al rato salen mal. Ya ha pasado varias veces.

Nothing there
I downloaded the comic, and every page is blank. Unfortunately the item will not delete so I can download once again.

Another great comic. I really enjoy seeing the differences between the comic and the show. I believe the comics are a must read for any fan of the show.

carol is probably the most badass character in the show and yet she dies here and goes down as the weirdest and most unnecessary character in the comic
