The Walking Dead, Vol. 1: Days Gone Bye by Robert KirkmanMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
This was an eBook I received as a perk for being a platinum IHG Rewards member.
This inspired me to start watching the AMC show, which I thoroughly enjoyed. This is the only volume of the comics I will probably read, but the differences between the comics and the show even in the first volume are pretty significant. As I remember it, the ending of the comic has quite a punch, which didn't exist in the TV show. I don't know if I think this is a good decision or not on the part of the TV show writers.
As with the majority of comics, it is a very quick read and a lot happens. I am generally a fan of the genre and enjoyed it, but I wasn't blown away. I'm sure if I kept reading, I would be happy I did, but in this case, I'm also happy to just let the TV show be the primary way I consume this franchise.
Speaking of franchise, I am very interested in playing The Walking Dead pinball table again now that I've seen the show (I played it perhaps in 2017 in Portland), and to play the Telltale Games based on The Walking Dead as well.
