Anyone else hate the primary cover art for the deluxe release?
Can't really put into word what bothers me about it. Maybe its the colors, or the gigachad look for Rick that doesn't even look like him. It's really distracting seeing that art, and opening the book and seeing how Rick actually looks. Not only that, but its annoying that the primary covers always spoil what happens in the issue. Its been a while since I read the series so I always know whats about to happen in the particular issue I'm reading just by looking at the cover. Unfortunately I bought the first 30 issues or so without knowing there were other cover variants. My favorites are usually the realistic, bleak art by Julian Tedesco. One of my favorites have to be 51, 58, 2, 49 to name a few. Whenever a new issue comes out, I usually go for either the Tedesco art or the original art by Charlie Adlard.
Thoughts? Am I wrong? Do you agree or prefer a different artist?

Reading the entire Walking Dead series in October
Hello,
On my YT channel, I recently read the entire Walking Dead series in one month. It was such an interesting experience as I had watched the show for quite a while without reading the comics. While I had some major issue with the series, I still think it is a good series overall and really captured the essence of how humans are often our own worst enemy.
If you want to give it a watch, here it is: https://youtu.be/k7UxCo_RhAU?si=eChD6FF_K12Hts7I

How to start?
Now that I’m pretty sure the series is complete. Is there a way to get the entire series in just a few books?

Axel is so lazy, that he even faked his death, so he can take a nap. Smh, so irresponsible even for him😮💨

Issue 100 afterthought
Everyone who was there when Glenn was killed were absolutely shattered… except Michonne.
Michonne is tough and probably desensitized enough explaining why she never showed her emotions to anyone.
I understand she didn’t have any emotional connections to Glenn, but she never mentioned him ever again after witnessing him being bludgeoned in front of her especially. It’s a bit disappointing that after the two survived through so much turmoil, it gives off an interpretation that she didn’t care about him. Thoughts?

I saw this commission that Tony Moore did Years ago.
This just goes to show how different the rest of the series would have looked if he stayed.

The Walking Dead Deluxe #100 Iconic Scene (SPOILERS!!!)
The super iconic Negan introduction scene is officially out in full color! I love it, the issue was great. The coloring job on this one is outstanding! This is by far my favorite issue in the deluxe edition so far and I doubt that anything will top it because it's just such an iconic scene and I have actually waited 4 god damn years to finally see Negan's introduction and Glenn's horrifying death in full color.

Issue 100 Deluxe release date confusion
On Issue #99 in the Deluxe Edition, it says "Issue 100 Available November 19, 2024!" But everywhere else it says November 6th which is in 5 days. League of comic geeks is what I have used and I know for a fact that it has been correct every time so no doubt Issue 100 comes out November 6th, but why does it say differently on Issue 99?
