The Walking Dead, Book One by Robert Kirkman

You would think that if humanity was on the brink of extinction, we'd all band together like extras in a Coca Cola commercial, right? The surviving humans are far more monstrous than any of the rotting corpses. The point is ( there really is a point this time!), the real monsters in The Walking Dead aren't the zombies. Me + Snazzy Shorts = Escaping Like A Boss! I firmly believe that if the Zombie Apocalypse happens, and these are what I'm faced with, I could speed-walk my way to safety. All that's required of these characters to survive is to avoid dark alleys, creepy basements, thickly wooded areas, and nutters who keep pet zombies in their barns hoarder-style. You have to be totally surprised by one of these suckers in order for it to get it's undead jaws on you. Now, I've mentioned this before, but I simply LOVE that the zombies in this series are of the shuffle-shuffle variety, and not the zoom-zoom class. Unfortunately, I still can't Twit, and I have no idea how to Tumble. Whatever, I can now LOL at things just like the kids! I mean, I have an obnoxious laugh, so I just assumed others did as well. I've only recently mastered the art of LOL ing properly!įor years, I thought it was some odd sound people made when they laughed. It's Tumblr?! So they spelled it wrong on purpose? Whyyyyyyyy?! Why do you people wanna screw with me like this? You know, the ones who don't get pop culture references, and still need help figuring out the difference between Twitter and Tumbler. Planet Anne! I like the sound of that! It can be a safe haven for all the sad little geriatric aliens in the multiverse. Since I'm somewhat late to The Walking Dead phenomenon ( Kelly has theorized that I'm some sort of ALIEN goddess from the stars), I'm going to try not to spoil anything for the other people from my planet. *In other words, I skimmed the first few pages, realized I'd forgotten all of the plot details, and started reading in earnest immediately.

Book One is apparently volumes 1 & 2, but even though I've already read and reviewed the first one, I still ended up reading most* of it again as a refresher.
