Walking Dead #2: A: Main
a cover of issue #2 of Walking Dead by Image Comics
How many hours are in a day when you don't spend half of them watching television? When is that last time any of us REALLY worked to get something that we wanted? How long has it been since any of us really NEEDED something that we WANTED? The world we knew is gone. The world of commerce and frivolous necessity has been replaced by a world of survival and responsibility. An epidemic of apocalyptic proportions has swept the globe, causing the dead to rise and feed on the living. In a matter of months society has crumbled, no government, no grocery stores, no mail delivery, no cable TV. In a world ruled by the dead, we are forced to finally begin living.
This issue: Rick Grime's horrific adventure continues. Everything he knew is gone, and the search for his family begins. Rick sets out for Atlanta, the last known location of his wife and son. It's only a five-hour drive, but this is not the case when all the gas stations are closed and your car is out of gas. On top of that, there are new rules in this world. One of the most important... don't go into the city, any city... EVER. Rick doesn't know this rule... but he'll learn. From the guys behind BATTLE POPE and BRIT comes something COMPLETELY different.
