Aren't you afraid the price might go up? Like, the low price is an incentive to get people to pre-order it and thus ensuring early sales on the book.

Not really, I'm counting on the Dutch webshop to have a low price. That, and I want to wait a month with it (money!).

I love this series. I prefer the individual volumes, though.

lol, no.
We're going to repeat our questions, aren't we?!?
No, you can ask a general question since you are trades and I'll ask a more up-to-date one. Eh?

we should also heap a lot of praise on the artist/inker/ etc...or pick the book apart.
Might give us the best shot of getting noticed.

that is not a zombie kitten.
it is weird that the animals aren't 'infected' with TWD 'disease' in the book. dead animals just kinda die.

Kirkman is being a man-bitch ignoring our query. He should answer your question based on the sheer number of people who you've gotten to pick up his work. And that's just on this board.

It's weird that once you're dead, even if it's from natural causes, you still re-animate.
This, to me, suggests, that the virus is airborne and most people have already been infected and all that's needed is a catalyst to start the process to turn into a zombie. This catalyst of course being a bite.

I'm not gonna brownose Kirkman just to get noticed. I'm already shelling out cash for his product, do I have to stroke his ego as well? Insecure fuckin' writer
Incidentally, I began talking zombie films with a few of my co-workers and we all decided that in event of a zombie outbreak, we should designate people who we'd want to kill us if we ever got infected.

That is such as odd combination of things to have. A bicycle and two sharpened swords.
I now have a mental image of D biking down the street chopping the heads off zombies

I ran into the Fathom Compendium yesterday, which is normal comic format. It's not a strange guess to think TWD will be the same.
