This is the complete 52-issue run of Walking Dead Weekly, the 2011 Image Comics weekly reprint series that republished the entire original Walking Dead run in individual single issues at a faster pace than the original monthly. Published throughout 2011, the series gave collectors a chance to own every chapter of Kirkman's landmark zombie saga in affordable single-issue format, spanning the very first meeting with Rick Grimes right through to the brutal prison arc and beyond. Critically this set contains reprints of the first appearances of Rick Grimes, Shane Walsh, Tyreese, Michonne, and The Governor — among the most sought-after keys in modern horror comics.
Robert Kirkman created Walking Dead in 2003 as a black-and-white ongoing series that redefined horror comics and went on to become one of the best-selling comic runs in Image Comics history. Artists Tony Moore (issues 1-6) and Charlie Adlard (issue 7 onwards) defined the visual language of the zombie apocalypse for a generation. The AMC television adaptation ran for 11 seasons and spawned multiple spinoffs, driving massive collector demand for key issues and complete sets from the original comic run.
