Re: The Walking Dead - TV Series on AMC

the hardcovers are expensive as hell. I just bought the 1st compendium that has 1-48 for $33 shipped

How many hardcovers are there?

6 of them I believe.

There's 2 Oversized Hardcovers (Omnibus). They are the balls. The third is out at the end of this month.

There's 6 Deluxe Hardcovers.

And a bunch of softcovers, including the aforementioned Compendium, which I believe has all the issues of Omnibus 1.

The dust jackets for the Omnibuses are super dope, but they have spoilers, and I can't post images inside spoiler links, soooo you'll just have to trust me.

I'm not disagreeing, I loved his art, and the switch was jarring for a while, but when I go back and look at the first 6 issues now, it looks too cartoony.

I know Kirkman even mentioned that Moore's art was great, but it wasn't a good fit for the series.

He definitely has a stylized (ie cartooney look) but I liked how clean it all was.....but I digress: wasnt meant to be. I am on trade 2 and still getting used to the ongoing artist. Some of his panels looks sharp;others a but sloppy.....but all in all, loving the series...gonna buy the next two trades tomorrow.

I guess I can start sharing pics now. This iPhone pic is from within the playback tent on the set during one of the days I was there helping with PR. Here, we were watching the filming of the scene where Rick is sitting on the steps, spots a zombie on the street and then gets hit in the face with the shovel (look top left of pic, you can see the kid holding the shovel and Andrew Lincoln sitting on the ground. That's Darabont standing behind them setting up the blocking of the shot):

So I went to go price the hardcover omnibuses and to my dismay https://www.amazon.com/Walking-Dead...=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1288803737&sr=8-3

Is volume 1 really that rare?

I think 1 is more around $300 on eBay, but maybe that will change if the show catches on.

It would make sense for them to start a new production run once this gets rolling. I'm sure they have a hard time moving the other two volumes when it's impossible to get the first one.

Hell yeah! Let's get another printing out there.

But...but...but then everyone who paid $600 for theirs will be maaaad.

Hey guys, just get the volume books https://www.amazon.com/Walking-Dead...=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1288807239&sr=1-2

They collect 12 issues each and are really nice hardcovers..

I just picked up the Compendium the other day. Such a great collection.

That's the way those Omnibus collections work. Hell, I'd love for Marvel to make another run of the New X-Men Omnibus, I need one myself. . . but I'd be pissed if there was another run of TWD Omnibus. They just go out of print, and people still want them. And if you still want them, you can go buy the trade, the Deluxe Hardcover, or the Compendium.

It's still a collectible. It's the same reason Sideshow doesn't make another run of the Captain America or Doom PF.

Second edition is a good way to get around that.

I heard they're going to be doing a series of novels. I don't think they're out yet though. Someone else on here probably knows more about it than I do.

Re: The Walking Dead - TV Series on AMC

I posted a link a while back about it. I think it is going to be a set of Novels that goes on with the TV show.
