the writers ain't shyt. Where can I read the comic?

Each arc is collected into a volume. So volume 1 ("Days gone bye") consist of the first 6 issues for example.
So the 147 issues released so far make up a little over 23 volumes... all available here:

The Walking Dead Comics Collection "Robert Kirkman" ~ Free The Walking Dead Comics

The tv show is currently covering stuff from volume 14 ("No Way Out") so you can read the first 80 issues and still not pass where the show is at, if you are concerned with spoiling anything.
But the comics and tv show are two entirely different worlds, so there are not really any spoilers because things unfold differently.

Enjoy.

Very interesting to Re-Watch this extended trailer having seen the first two episodes...

Pause at 1:13. Who's that being eaten?

He just means they are watered down and stripped of all their awesome moments that make them special or developed.
It would be more tolerable if they were new characters on a new intellectual property, but you gotta understand that these are established characters.

So, imagine they took the X-men comic and made a TV show... but instead of having Storm as the secondary team leader they made Gambit the secondary team leader after Cyclops. And on the show Storm didn't have lightning powers, but now for some reason Beast also has lightning powers in addition to his regular powers... and then later they introduce Bishop, but he isn't a time traveller and doesn't have a big ass gun... he is jyst there to babysit Cyclop's two year old daughter Judith (who isn't even in the comics) and later that season Wolverine gets a big ass gun and they they reveal that Rogue is really from the future.

You would start to see a patern developing, and as a black person that bought and supported the comics and the brand in general who enjoyed the diverse portrayals, it would start to make you feel betrayed and disrespected. Frankly, it would probably piss you off.
So thats why the comic readers are always irritated.

They gave all of Tyrese's roles away to Shane/Daryl etc...
Shane is only in 7 episodes in the comics, he is an extremely minor character and Daryl doesnt even exist. Tyrese is Rick's right hand for 1/3 of the series (he is in over 40 issues to compared to Shane's 7) and they neutered him by making him a babysitter to Rick's kid, making him hesitant and needing of reassurance from a stronger black female (Sasha) who doesn't even exist in the comics at all. On the show Tyrese is just a big black dude. In the comics he is a retired Atlanta Falcon linebacker. Michone was a lawyer in the comics (they gave that backstory to Andrea in the show). She establishes intimate relationships with Tyrese, and Morgan which they make sure to never let the black chars do on the show... except for Sasha and Bob the black alchoholic. In the comics the alcoholic character is white. Again, thats that bullshyt. The Governer is supposed to be mexican, they made him white. So now he's bossing around his right thats why his right hand dude (Martinez) and it just comes off uncomfortable. In the comic the priest (who is black like on the show) is not such a whiny lil bytch.

So far they haven't messed up Heath ...not gonna talk about the dread wig
But I got a feeling they are gonna omit one of his story-lines cause just like the coli brehs he loves his pawgs.

And they made sure not to give Tyrese noooooo p*ssy. Even though Tyrese was supposed to be running through Carol on the regular til Chonne showed up. The entire Tyrese/Carol relationship they made into Daryl/Carol then made Tyrese hold a baby the whole time.

So please excuse us when we get upset, its just hard not to.

Yea I've been "one of those" comic readers since day 1. I remember telling my fam like 10 years ago that they should read the comic and I hope it comes to HBO...lol.

Anyway, what you said was on point. I like how the show went in a different direction with other characters like Shane and the creation of Daryl. But they are completely screwing up the black characters like wtf. It's like they've gone out of their way to completely destroy or reverse how the black characters are in the comic...which for the most part are strong and very human. They basically exchanged Tyrese for Shane which was complete bullshyt for me but ok. Shane was highly entertaining so I didn't mind. But what they did to the Tyrese character after that is what pissed me off.

The same wit Michonne, T-Dog "wtf again", Morgan, Bob (black dudes don't call themselves Bob smh), the hospital dude, Black chick from Season 1 lol. Sasha is the only character, at this point, that is somewhat good and well-written. But you can't help but feel its like we're back in the movies and they are just adding diversity just because.

Seriously, can we get some real characters like Lee and Clementine from the damn game!

Looks like Maggie but could just be a generic white chick.

Re watched today. You know you always catch some new little shyt

OG Carol wasn't crying at the end about killing them demons or even the lady smoker

She looked over and saw that little boy that she keeps being mean to had put his little stamp on her porch
I believe she felt guilty then

When did he do that? I was wondering what that A meant. I thought the wolves put it there somehow.

so why he put them in the car and blow the horn for zombies to come?

I took it as him testing to see if any walkers were nearby and he would take them out before he left. Only watched it once though so I could be wrong.

nah i just watched it 2 weeks ago... i completely watch a series, before any new season, to catch up and catch on to things


he tried the, i'll give you everything, just let me live thing.... then they tried to kill him.... he beat them down... then he put them in the car and beeped for walkers to come


he had every intention of killing them both... i think it's harder to kill humans cause that stick would break... where a decomposed body, it was go through the skull easy (not real science i know, but how else is sticks, knives, and everything else getting through a skull)


but now he's on some, don't even attempt to kill at all, no matter what shyt..... but maybe we'll get his back story soon.... sounds like martial arts logic... only use when necessary type shyt

 

[Francis White]

I have a theory, Morgan is still crazy has a death wish , that's why he fighting with a stick instead of a blade or gun. I am thinking he never recovered from Clear. Let's be real, him fighting that guy and tying him lost more lives than were saved. At least 3 or 4 people got savagely killed while he doing that stupid shyt. Also again was he going to look the guy in the eye and give him a strong talking too? That would change his life and all would be forgiven and the townspeople would say it's cool, you just hacked one our own too pieces. Just stupid and crazy.
Now the wolves are minor league too say the least. The have no guns are obviously pawns for the real enemy. They are guys the Governor would use and abuse from the start. The wolf guy saying he didn't have a choice tells me they are pieces to the Saviors group. All the guns out there and these guys don't have any ? Something not right with that.

 

[Llcoolbay]

you mean with the gov?

Yessir

Black Women would definitely not been happy about that especially if they havent read the comic

Thanks for posting that, forgot about the zombie at the end. For me, that's why I believe he wasn't leaving them as walker bait. He could've easily led that walker to them and then took off and let the zombie feast on them without the extra effort of dragging 2 people into a car

 

[Fury616]

I read the comic but I also know that you can't (and shouldn't) adapt everything literally. My beef with the show's depiction of black people is more how they made EVERY black dude an over-sensitive/emotional "turn the other cheek" simp. Tyrese, Bob, T-Dog, Gabriel, Morgan, Noah...all of them have been weak in some form or fashion. Don't need them to be Carol, but at least should have had one of them understand the world they're in...

Case in point, Morgan lets KNOWN enemies live another day, right after they killed innocents... Just like Tyrese let a KNOWN enemy live another day, right after the enemy threatened to murder a baby and eat his friends. Even T-Dog was weak when it came to Merle, a racist dude who made his life hell before Rick showed up. Its just interesting that the writers either kill the black men off the show or they neuter them altogether.

This x100000. I should have seen this before I posted since I basically mirrored everything you said. Perfect post wit the perfect avi.

Nah, Morgan was saving them...Lennie James said on The Talking Dead after that episode that Morgan blew the horn to make sure there were no Zombies around. If they had come out he would have killed them.

 

[Jimmy ValenTime]

lee should been his own mini series ..

Also, this:

He blows the horn, checking to make sure there are no walkers nearby so the men are left in a safe area.

Maggie hasn't done shyt since they got to Alexandria. I guess they pushed her to the side to give screen time to more important characters such as the guy with the giant forehead who tried to kill Glen and will be dead and forgotten about within the next few episodes.
