God damn, a lot of shit went down in this volume. A lot of graphic, gory shit. Rick is quickly losing his trust in humanity and I totally see why. I can feel Lori and Rick's relationship slowly getting worse and worse. I really loved most of this volume but there is one thing that kind of disappointed me and I can't really talk about that without giving spoilers. But damn, I am obsessed with these comics now. I'm hooked and I probably won't stop reading them until I'm caught up.SPOILERS BELOWSo....

Bloody hell, I am not even sure what to say to that. Intense, incredibly violent and way too graphic. I could not put it down and at the same time I wanted to run screaming. Unreal.More like welcome to hell! I considered to stop reading, because it was just too much. Disturbing is a good word for it. Still, I continued and read the whole thing in one sitting. If you think that volume 5 was gruesome, hold on to your hat.

This volume was really good and alittle bit crazy xD but i loved it - Michonne took her revenge " revenge is a dish best served cold " she was sadist but he deserve it anyway and it teach us never make a girl with a sword mad or u probably will regret it xD :) - Rick start to lose his humanity and feels like a savage but well thats the kind of world he live into now - Glenn that was my fav part even with this shit crazy stuff happening we can see romance that makes us believe that life should go...

BRUUUUTAL :') Moral of the story: do not piss off a woman who knows how to wield a sword haha.

There is a redress going on in modern popular culture with which I am fascinated. Rape tales, tales of torturing women, tales of violence against women have been told for years with graphic detail. Many of these tales have been saying (either explicitly or implicitly) that these brands of violence are wrong or even evil, but many of them still offer up the vision of this violence to illustrate the wrongs and evils.Now a redress has come, and we have Lisbeth Salander avenging herself on her torme...

Woodbury is all around us! This is the fifth volume of the softcover editions of "The Walking Dead", collecting the comic book issues from #31 to #36.Creative Team:Writer: Robert KirkmanIllustrators: Charlie Adlard Additional gray tones to inking: Cliff RathburnChapter Six THIS SORROWFUL LIFE Don’t you know what people is capable of?! Rick, Michonne and Glenn are trapped in Woodbury.And each one of them......they never would be the same anymore!Woodbury will leave scars too deep to heal,

Another trigger warning volume, this time for the meting out of serious payback in the form of brutal revenge torture. I'm actually kind of missing all that angsty pining and manufactured emotional drama of earlier days.Rick realises how far gone he is, and Michonne...well maybe she was already out there, but it seems recent events have pushed her to the limit of her humanity. This is a turning point in the story. Both characters are disturbed at what they have become. The question is where will...

HUGE turning point in the story here, from volume 5 to volume 6 so much happens to change the groups dynamic at the prison.Glenn, Rick, and Michonne were locked up at Woodbury when they find a few sympathizers who don't like "The Governor" and his crazy ways either. So they decide when everybody is distracted to get outta Dodge and escape. Without giving too much away they make it back to their prison safehouse only to find things vastly different from how they left AND that one of them isn't wh...

Wow, what a volume! Things got really crazy in these episodes! I loved it. I love how we are finally learning more about the characters as we're actually getting a great insight into them now. I've tried to not get too attached to anyone because I'm pretty sure Robert Kirkman will kill whoever he wants to but I can't help it! (view spoiler)[ HASHTAG DR. STEVENS OMG! (hide spoiler)]I still have my concerns with this comic and it's representation of women but I hope Alice will be sane and that wi...

This volume was full of action and suspense. We got to see a whole different side to Michonne, someone new joined the group, and of course, there's some death. Honestly I think my favorite parts in these last few volumes (especially this one) is the lack of Rick wife's. She's makes a few appearances, but it's minimal, and I am ever so grateful. Considering this one wrapped up a story arc to begin a new one, I am curious what the next volume will bring.

WHAT A COME BACK.The last two issues have not been my cup of tea.. but this one slapped me across the face.Remember The Governor? And how he believes that he is the biggest bad in the world and things only go his way because he is boss man and he is god? Well, let's just say, he hasn't seen the goddess of war and destruction before. And she will make him rue the day ..and that isn't even the worst of it.THIS ISSUE HAS THE MOST GORE AND TORTURE SO FAR, so please of please do not read it if you ha...

this one seemed shorter then the rest.

Every time a write a review for one of these comics, I seem to mention that another level has been breached. And that’s because it’s completely true. This one descended even further into depravity. In the past we’ve had lots of violence, mutilation, torture and even rape. These have become almost casual things, trademarks of everyday life. In this crazy world this stuff happens every day. I hesitate to say that it’s normal, it’s not normal, but in a zombie apocalypse anything goes. There are no

First Read: February 28th 2016 Re-read: May 29th 2019 so violent! i love the comics but jesus this issue was the most violent one yet but i can just imagine it will get worse from here on.But this comic i can finally see a nice rhythm going on, i'm starting to learn more about each character individually and these characters are starting to mean something to me it feels like they're new friends. the pace of the comics is going very well, this volume seemed shorter than the other ones

"we just need to be sure that when they get here. We're ready for them." Okay I'm liking this one, some scenes were gruesome but most were cool. I'm excited to see what will happen on the next TWD volume.

I’m starting to realize that Walking Dead is one of those series that boasts a large number of fans that are oblivious to or are willing to look past its flaws. I’m not saying that’s a bad thing, but it is what it is. The universal acclaim that these books get seems to be at odds with some of the problems it has, especially by this point in the series. This volume, simply put, isn’t put together very well, and isn’t much fun to read. Spoilers ahead.The issues in this collection continue to chron...

A continuation of the prison vs. Woodbury. At this point, the fight is still in its earliest chapters. I'm keeping running notes on the differences between the books and AMC's show. Don't read on if you don't want spoilers. Stop reading. Now. Seriously. • Michonne fights in Woodbury's arena. • Rick, Glenn, and Michonne escape with the help of an ex-gym teacher named Martinez. • A doctor and his apprentice try to escape with them. The doctor is killed immediately. Enter Alice: a new character to

Rick, Glenn and Michonne remain the captives of the sadistic Governor, the leader of a small enclosed community. But help is on hand as one of the Governor’s guards helps them escape and head back home to the prison. Will they all make it back – or die trying? I really, really enjoyed this one! I flew through it in one sitting, and it’s a cliché but the pages couldn’t turn fast enough. Everything from the lead-up to the breakout, the escape through the forest, the drive back to the prison, and f...

Heh... Every time I see or hear the phrase "or die trying" (such as the one in the description for this volume) I can't help but think of The Boondocks and how the show makes fun of 50 Cent. Observe: "Mumble mumble something. ...Or die tryin'." Not that that really has anything to do with this volume. It's just early, I haven't had coffee yet, and reading the description of this book to refresh my memory as to what happened (from sooooooooooooooo long ago - aka: last night), and it made me think...

If you're like me, one of your deeply-held beliefs is that the only problem with zombie movies is that they come to an end. With that in mind, Robert Kirkman has given us "The Walking Dead", a series which tells the ongoing story of an eclectic group of people trying to live in a world now ruled by the dead. Kirkman's introduction says it best: "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 wan...
