The Walking Dead
To start this off I am a big fan of The Walking Dead show. I have followed it since AMC first started playing the first season. I have never read any of the comics though. It is definitely a lot different watching the show and then reading the comics. Since I already know what is going to happen and the images of every character. I like this series because there's also that side drama going on. Besides the zombies trying to kill every one, they also have conflicts with each other. For instance Shane told Lori Rick was dead and they end up hooking up only to see Rick come back to their camp site. Now Lori has the guilt that she cheated on her husband with his best friend. I love how this comic shows the progression/regression of each character. As Rick shows as a leader, you have Shane who used to be a good leader start to go crazy because he's crazy about Lori. Then you have the drama of the loved ones getting killed. Jim saw his whole family get swept away from him as he escaped. In the comic you can tell how it messsed him up mentaly. When they were at the camp site that Shane said was so safe, they end up getting bombarded by a flock of zombies. Andrea loses her sister that she was extremely close to. But she also saw it happen which comes in to play later in this series. She never gets over losing her sister. I really like Rick as a character. He shows great leadership skills but he's got that bump in the log which is holding him back. That would be Shane. Since they're best friends I think Rick doesn't have the heart to tell him no and just always goes with what Shane agrees on. If they would have moved when Rick said they needed to, Andrea might still have her sister. My favorite character is Glenn. He's always down to go out and get supplies to save his group. He went with Rick to go get guns since they decided to stay at the camp site outside of town. He never turns down a mission.
