The Walking Dead: Days Gone Bye

138398Goodreads Synopsis:    How many hours are in a day when you don't spend half of them watching television?
When is the last time any of us REALLY worked to get something 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The world of commerce and frivolous necessity has been replaced by a world of survival and responsibility.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 start living.
My Thoughts:
-    I was really hooked by the introduction. This series is really long! Is there in end in sight?
-    There is crazy action and excitement from the start! Whoa!
-    The illustrations are SO vivid, and I like how they made this series black and white. It adds to the scary.
-    There is a lot language, so beware.
-    The poor horse! You have to have a strong stomach to read this.
-    Even though I don't know much about Rick yet, I still sympathize with him big time.
-    Glenn reminds me of Short Round from Indiana Jones.
-    If I had to sum this graphic novel up in one word, it would be CRAZY! The story is really messed up, and the ending is SO crazy! This whole book was just one big crazy mess! Wow! It was thrilling and disturbing all at the same time.
-    If there was a rated R book out there, this is it!

  1. I've never got in to this whole Walking Dead thing. Everyone raves about it. Maybe I should get into it.

  2. Now, you need to watch the show! If you're worried about language, there are no F-words or anything like that in the show. It's mostly the violence.
