THE WALKING DEAD gehört zu den meistgelobten und erfolgreichsten US-Independent-Serien der letzten Jahre! Als der Cop Rick Grimes aus dem Koma erwacht, ist nichts mehr wie es war. Zombies bevölkern Nordamerika, vielleicht sogar die ganze Welt. Ursache: unbekannt. Das komplette wirtschaftliche und soziale Netz ist zusammengebrochen. Wer nicht zum lebenden Toten mutiert ist, befindet sich auf der Flucht. Die Großstädte sind völlig in der Hand der schleichenden, hungrigen Untoten. Nur auf dem Land ist es noch einigermaßen sicher. THE WALKING DEAD schildert die Odyssee Grimes durch ein völlig verändertes Amerika. Im ersten Band macht er sich auf die Suche nach Überlebenden – und findet etwas, das er nicht zu hoffen wagte. Mehr als nur Horror! „In THE WALKING DEAD“; so Autor Robert Kirkman, „möchte ich untersuchen, wie Menschen mit extremen Situationen umgehen und wie solche Ereignisse sie verändern.“ Rick Grimes’ Odyssee durch ein untotes Amerika ist eine Reise zur Erkenntnis, was Leben wirklich bedeutet. Aufgrund der einfühlsamen Erzählweise und der markanten schwarz-weiß-Zeichnungen von Terry Moore und später Charlie Adlard wurde diese Serie zu einem der meistgelobten US-Independent-Titel der letzten Jahre. Robert Kirkman zählt inzwischen zu einem der bekanntesten Comicautoren der USA und arbeitet u.a. für Marvel (Marvel Zombies, Ultimate X-Men) und Image (OUTCAST). THE WALKING DEAD erhielt 2010 den Eisner Award für die beste Comicserie. Am 12. Oktober startet bereits die sechste Staffel der gleichnamigen TV-Serie bei Fox. Mittlerweile gibt es sogar eine Spin-off-TV-Serie: „Fear the Walking Dead“; die ab August 2015 in den USA zu sehen sein wird und die Vorgeschichte des Comics erzählt. Auch der düstere und nervenaufreibende Comic OUTCAST mit dem Thema Exorzismus (ebenfalls bei Cross Cult erschienen) erhält eine eigene TV-Serie, die 2016 ausgestrahlt werden soll.
