The Walking Dead TV Series season 1
The Walking Dead comic book, when I read the first issue, did not grab me. “It’s 28 Days Later, in black & white, without even the benefit of Cillian Murphy’s winkie – what’s the point in that?” Similarly, the unique selling point of actor Andrew Lincoln, in vehicles like This Life and Teachers, was his cheerful inability to retain much in the way of clothing – his thespian abilities didn’t make much of an impression. But I was pleasantly surprised, in both cases, to have underestimated the parties in question.
