• The world we knew is gone. The world of commerce and frivolous necessity has been replaced by a world of survival and responsibility. An epidemic of apocalyptic proportions has swept the globe, causing the dead to rise and feed on the living. In a matter of months society has crumbled: no government, no grocery stores, no mail delivery, no cable TV. In a world ruled by the dead, the survivors are forced to finally start living.
• The survivors of Robert Kirkman and Charlie Adlard's Eisner Award-winning post-apocalyptic survival adventure have found relative safety in the confines of the community's walls-or have they? As conflicts continue within, the undead approach from the outside. Everyone is forced to make hard decisions, and this chapter of New York Times Best-Seller The Walking Dead proves again- no one is safe.
