Walking Dead Raises the Bar

From IGN:

THE WALKING DEAD #33 is an instant sell out! The most controversial issue of Robert Kirkman's end-days epic to date has sold out at Diamond in less than 24 hours, and to respond to the overwhelming demand, Image Comics is going back to press.

In a world filled with flesh-eating zombies, humanity must become savage to survive. This issue features ex-lawyer Michonne turning the tables on her sadistic captor the Governor - who Wizard Magazine named "Villain of the Year." Fans everywhere are talking about the latest haunting installment of the fan-favorite zombie saga.

"A 24 hour sell-out is an incredible achievement," said Image's Executive Director Eric Stephenson. "Robert Kirkman and Charlie Adlard really pushed the envelope with this issue. It's terrifying, it's challenging, and what's so great about THE WALKING DEAD is you never know what's going to happen next. From brutal action to desperate romance to powerful commentary on the human condition, anything can happen in THE WALKING DEAD. This horrifying issue is a great example of why this series is such a hit."

The zombie tale that never ends just got a whole lot darker. THE WALKING DEAD #33 will be back in stores in early January.
