The Walking Dead #45 Review

THE WALKING DEAD #45
Written by Robert Kirkman

I didn't even see this book in the Diamond listings earlier this week, so it was a pleasant surprise seeing it waiting for me when I made it to the shop this week. If you're not reading this book, there's not much else I can say to get you to give it a shot. I've given it Must Read ratings multiple times and plug it every chance I can get.

This month's issue deals with the aftermath of the Woodbury attack on the prison. Rick was shot and doubled over at the end of last issue, as did Andrea. Andrea was just grazed, but Rick survived only through the luck of a O- blood donor in the group.

While Rick was under, Tyrese and Michonne went chasing after the Woodbury army to pick off stragglers and put some fear into them so they never come back. Their little assault went bad and the cliffhanger ending was another shocker with Michonne supposedly killed while Tyrese is taken captive. For even more bad news, Andrea, their best marksmen who single handedly repelled the Woodbury army, has left the prison with Dale, Glen, Maggie and the kids, leaving the injured, one armed Rick and a couple others to defend the prison. Like Kirkman said, no one is safe in this book and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Verdict - Must Read.
