Koz's Comic Review: There is a new sheriff in town!!
This is Review #78 out 78 as I am continuing to review every issue of the Walking Dead as my tribute to such a great book and to hopefully to get new readers to the series. Also to get everyone hyped for the new show on AMC. I will continue reviewing past issues after I complete the current one.
Plot:
In issue #78 we see a gang that is coming up with a plan to get into the community are willing to do anything to get inside. Next we get to witness the the whole town coming together to see what has happened. Rick being the leader that he is. He calms everyone down and explains that it is a police matter and tells everyone to head back home. Also Rick takes the liberity to go to Jessie's house to console her about Pete's death. Later Rick goes to Douglus about a funeral for Scott, Regena, and Pete. Douglus has no choice but to agree. As the funeral proceeds the town hears a gunshot. Rick makes his way to the gate of the community and find the leader of the gang waiting for him. After some threats, Rick tells the leader of the gang to take a hike. A sniper from the gang flashes a red dot at Rick and pulls the trigger.
OUTCOME:
The cover to this issue is very misleading it has notthing to do with Andrea hooking up. However this issue does prove that Rick is once again a born leader, as he has played a major role in the community. He manages to find the good in everyone and has made the community a better and safer place. I am ready for some real zombie action as I am looking forward to issue # 80 the Know way out story arc. You do get a little hit of that on page 18 and 19 as it is a two page spread of zombies heading in a certain direction. I loved the art work on those pages as you get that dark and creepy feeling which Penciler and Inker Charlie Adlard delievers to the book. This is a great issue I give it a 4.5 out 5. This is not the best continuing series for nothing. Enjoy!!
