    Walking Dead to be a weekly (re-release)

    Stephen SchleicherBy Stephen SchleicherOctober 26, 20101 Comment3 Mins Read

    Image Comics has announced it will be re-releasing the entire run of The Walking Dead as a weekly series beginning in January 2011. You can try and find the original issues in the bins, pick up the trades, the compendiums, the omnibus editions, purchase and download all the digital editions, or now the weeklies.

    “Keeping a series like this going year after year is all about creating good jumping-on-points for new readers,” says series creator and writer Robert Kirkman. “And what better way to jump on than with the very first issue? Making this series available in single issue form will make it easier for new fans to jump on board and for old fans to fill in any gaps in their collection.”

    It makes sense – this weekend kicks off the six episode Walking Dead series on AMC, and if it brings back interest in zombies, Image is prepping itself to make another killing with the series.  I wonder if Robert Kirkman and George Lucas have been chatting with one another recently?

    More info, after the jump.

    From the press release

    January will see the release of the following issues:

    THE WALKING DEAD WEEKLY #1
    January 5
    Starting in this issue, Rick Grimes awakens to a world he’s not prepared for. This small town cop must now fight the forces of the undead while he searches for his missing wife and son. This is the issue that started it all!

    THE WALKING DEAD WEEKLY #2
    January 12
    Rick Grime’s horrific adventure continues. Everything he knew is gone, and the search for his family begins. Rick sets out for Atlanta, the last known location of his wife and son.

    THE WALKING DEAD WEEKLY #3
    January 19
    Now reunited with his family, Rick Grime’s focus shifts from survival to protection. It’s one thing to know that you have to watch your back every second of every day. It’s another thing entirely to have to worry about losing your family in the blink of an eye.

    THE WALKING DEAD WEEKLY #4
    January 26
    It is decided that in order to survive… every person at the camp should have guns. As it is, they don’t have enough to go around and the only place to get more guns is the city, but it means certain death to go into the city. Is Rick crazy enough to risk his life for the good of the camp?

    You will also be able to pick up THE WALKING DEAD OMNIBUS, VOL. 3 in January 2011. Collecting issues #49-72, the OMNIBUS is a deluxe oversized and slipcased hardcover. It’s perfect for long time fans, new readers and anyone needing a heavy object with which to fend off the walking dead. The omnibus is strictly limited to a print run of 3000.

    THE WALKING DEAD WEEKLIES (#1: NOV100410; #2: NOV100411; #3: NOV100412; #4: NOV100413), each a 32-page black-and-white comic book for $2.99, will be in stores each Wednesday of January 2011. THE WALKING DEAD OMNIBUS, VOL. 3 (regular edition: NOV100442, $100; signed and numbered edition: NOV100443, $150), a 560-page oversized slipcased hardcover, will be in stores January 5, 2011.

      I hope this doesn’t oversaturate the need for the Walking Dead. The trades are good and plenty. I never felt WD was a good monthly or weekly comic, it was best read in the collected format.
