I'm interested in reading them. Have any of you? If so where do I start? I looked them up on Amazon but there are so many I'm not sure what the order is. Lol

I downloaded them on my phone last week. Issue 1-112. As of last week, I've read up to issue #78 and I must say, they're amazing. Since I've watched the show before I read the comics, I figured that I'd say the comics suck and the show is better, but man was I wrong. The comics have something special to them and highly suggest reading them.

There's a few different formatys that they come in. Trade paper, hardcovers and the omnibus. It really depends on which you want. If you go with the Trade papers, there are 18, with 19 coming out in November. The hardcovers, I think there are 9. There are also the 2 omnibus'. Except for #1, the trades have 6-8 issues in them. I can't remember what the hardcovers have, but it's more than the trades. The omnibus' have 40 something issues in them, I think.
If I remember right, the trades come out twice a year, the hardcovers once a year and the omnibus once every couple of years.
Whichever you go with, obviously start with #1.

He's a different ind of sick in the comics and some of the things he does, there's no way they could put it on tv. It's cool to see some people live longer and die sooner between the two as well. Kirkman has said had wondered how things would have been if he let certain people live longer and the show gives him that chance to make it happen.

The compendiums are my favorite way to go. Cheapest, too.

Best comic/graphic novel series ever.
Unless you are referring to the actual books such as "Rise of the Governor" none of which I have read.

I have the Hardcovers, I like the black and white covers on my shelf. I only have three so far but need to pick up more when my budget allows, I need to catch up.
