Um, thanks to HBO, it now belongs to anyone who likes grime and tits, often in combination.

I really enjoyed the first couple of arcs of Fear Agent. I didn't even realize it was the same artist, but of course the second you mentioned it, the penny dropped. I agree his art style is more suitable to that kind of colorful setting, where he has more room both to be cartoony and to get as detailed as he wants.

That… sounds pretty awful. Do a bunch of people get killed as a result? In the comic, they get out entirely accidentally, and some of Herschel's disposable, personality-free kids die.

Sales of #100 and the steadily rising TV ratings suggest it's still peaking. Eventually it'll decline, like everything does, but it's a little premature to predict that.

How are the barn zombies discovered in the show? In the book, it's just casual conversation, where Rick mentions the barn and Herschel says "Oh yeah, don't go in there, it's full of zombies," essentially. I'm with Noah — he makes it clear he doesn't think of them as a threat. And when a zombie turns up on his land and…

More violence and a lot more swearing. I don't remember the grasshoppers in "Bug's Life" saying "Give us your shit, then make more shit." Or talking about "pee pee pants city."

Actually, thinking about it, it makes sense to me that all this conversation HAS happened before, organically, at more length, for everyone else, and the campfire scene is just them catching him up to where they all are. Which gives them every reason to be clipped and to the point about what they say — they probably…

At this point, the books blur together for me. Did you get far enough into the series to reach the point where

@Miller The Books Of Magic trades are out of print and some of them are hard to find, so it isn't something we'd do here. (Also, frustratingly, they don't go up to the end of the series. I sold off my issue collection because I thought they were all going to come out in book form eventually, like other Vertigo series…

Since I haven't seen the show… is he still around at the end of the second season? Do you think keeping him around past the point where he's dead in the books is just to try to increase the drama between him and Lori and Rick? I admit I'm a bit surprised Kirkman shut down that plotline so early, but I'm betting he…
