The Concept: 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: There is 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: After the ordeal Rick has endured last issue, he sets out to find safer shelter. More is learned about the zombies that now out-number us 5000 to 1... but when it comes to some things... it's better not to know. Rick begins to wonder if there is a light at the end of this tunnel his life has become, and even if there is... how can he expect to ever make it there?
