5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Collection, January 22, 2009

I just received my copy of this new omnibus collection of The Walking Dead and I am in love! This collection, a long with volume one omnibus and to a lesser but still top notch degree the four smaller hardcovers are how this comic should be read. It's nice to see the great art work in a bigger format than the regular trages or the comics themselves and the story just flows nicely with so many of the issues collected (24-48.) The dust jacket art work is an amazing bit of art and I would be tempted to have it hanging on my wall if the book itself wasn't so expensive, but when I preordered the book in December the price was reduced to a lovely 63 dollars which was a lot easier to swallow than the 100 dollar price tag. However, with the extras you get in the collection a long with the larger format makes the price seem not as steep. Overall, it's just the perfect collection for TWD fans.

This review is from: The Walking Dead Omnibus Volume 2 (v. 2) (Hardcover)

This book 2 of The Walking Dead Series is just getting better and better. The story line realy unfolds in this next installment of 4 chapters in the lives of the few left alive after the world has been turned into flesh eating zombie's. The Walking Dead series is the BEST take on the troubles of rebuilding your society and your shattered families after the zombie virus/infestation has gone on for weeks, months, years.... I highly suggest getting Book 1 first to read the story from the beginning and you will not be able to put them down. Highly recommended for any horror film lover and especially any zombie film nerd.
