The Walking Dead (season 1)
"The Walking Dead" was included on the cover of the December 2010 edition of "Entertainment Weekly", which featured Rick Grimes pointing a gun at a horde of walkers. According to the journalist of the magazine, it "examines the past, present, and future" of the television franchise; "from the comic book's humble beginnings, to unlikely path to the small screen, to even more unlikely path as a bona fide hit." Kirkman was ecstatic upon hearing of the news. "I've got to say—not to kiss your magazine's a– or anything—but when they called me and said Frank [Darabont] wanted to do the show, I was like, 'Yeah, I'll believe it when I see it.' And then when AMC was like, 'We're picking up the show,' I was like, 'Yeah, alright, whatever.' When they actually started shooting the pilot I was like, 'Well, this is kind of real, this is neat.' But when they called me and said, 'Your show's on the cover of "Entertainment Weekly",' I think that was the first time I was like, 'Oh my god, I can't believe this is happening to me!'"
The first season of "The Walking Dead" received mostly positive reviews from critics. On Metacritic, the season holds a score of 82 out of 100, indicating "universal acclaim", based on 25 critics. On Rotten Tomatoes, the season holds an 89% with an average rating of 7.49 out of 10, based on 24 reviews, and an average episode score of 87%. The site's critical consensus reads: "Blood-spattered, emotionally resonant, and white-knuckle intense, "The Walking Dead" puts an intelligent spin on the overcrowded zombie subgenre." Following the pilot episode's debut, "TV Guide"s Matt Roush called the show "a stark and harrowing survival parable ... visually stunning ... and daring in its artful use of silence." Following the second episode, Simon Abrams from "Slant Magazine" awarded the show three and a half stars out of a possible four; "To say that Darabont has kicked his series off with a bang would be a serious understatement ... [he] has fashioned a fully realized alternate reality and it's a thrilling thing to experience."

"The Walking Dead" comic creator Robert Kirkman feels "absolutely blessed Reedus has honored the show with his presence, and the way he has come in and taken over that role and defined Daryl Dixon. A lot of Reedus's portrayal of the character in the first season inspired all the writers to do what we did with him in the second season. We love writing him and end up doing cool stuff with him." The drama has evolved into the highest-rated in cable history, smashing all previous records. Reedus was nominated for a Saturn Award for Best Supporting Actor for his performance.

In 2011, Telltale Games announced that it had acquired licenses to develop video games based on two comic book series, "The Walking Dead" by Robert Kirkman, and "Fables" by Bill Willingham. This announcement came around the same time that the television series "The Walking Dead" became critically successful, leading to Telltale to put much of their initial focus on developing "The Walking Dead" property through 2011 and 2012. This game was released by April 2012, and was a critical success for Telltale. With "The Walking Dead" shipping, the company then started working on their "Fables" title, but according to Telltale's Job Stauffer, they struggled with the narrative of the title over a year and a half. Stauffer said at one point, they found the game to be more of a comedy, but without much humorous substance and in an un-shippable state. Stauffer said that their team rallied together to refocus the game, delaying it from an early 2012 release to late 2012, and ultimately to October 2013 when it finally shipped. This did allow for Telltale to incorporate mechanics that had proven successful in "The Walking Dead" into their "Fables" game.
Robert Kirkman
Shortly after the launch of "Invincible", Kirkman and Moore began "The Walking Dead" (2003). Kirkman said in 2012 that Image had balked at publishing a comics series featuring what it felt was simply another zombie story, prompting him to say the zombies were part of an alien plot—a notion he had no intention of using except as a means of selling the project. Artist Charlie Adlard replaced Tony Moore with issue #7. Moore continued to draw covers until issue 24 as well as the first four volumes of the trade paperbacks for the series.
Kirkman was first hired by Marvel Comics to pen a revival of the 1990s "Sleepwalker" series, but it was canceled before being published; the contents of its first issue were included in "Epic Anthology" No. 1 (2004). He soon became a mainstay at Marvel, writing the "Avengers Disassembled" issues of "Captain America" vol. 4, 2004's "Marvel Knights 2099" one-shots event, "Jubilee" #1–6 and "Fantastic Four: Foes" #1–6, a two-year run on "Ultimate X-Men" and the entire "Marvel Team-Up" vol. 3 and the "Irredeemable Ant-Man" miniseries.
Campo Santo (company)
Sean Vanaman and Jake Rodkin were both at Telltale Games as co-writers (and with Vanaman as co-leader) on "The Walking Dead" video game, released in 2012, which, for Telltale, was considered its first turn into a more narrative type of episodic adventure game. "The Walking Dead" was a critical success, and while other projects came along, Vanaman started to become too comfortable with his role at Telltale, and felt that he would be more motivated if there was more discomfort or risk in his duties. After talking about the idea with Rodkin, the two left Telltale and co-founded Campo Santo, joined by "Mark of the Ninja" designer Nels Anderson and graphic artist Olly Moss in San Francisco on September 18, 2013. Soon after, they announced Panic would back their debut video game.

Similarly, Dwight, played by Austin Amelio, is slated to join "Fear the Walking Dead" for its fifth season in 2019.
The Walking Dead (TV series)
The television series generally tends to follow Kirkman's comic series across major characters and plots; for instance, events of the premiere episode of the seventh season correlate to events in issue #100 of the comics. The show does not attempt to go step-by-step with the comics, and has leeway in the narrative. In particular, the show's writers, along with Kirkman, often "transfer" how a character has died in the comics to a different character in the show. For example, in the fourth season, where Hershel Greene is beheaded by The Governor in the standoff with Rick's group at the prison; in the comic, Tyreese is the one who receives this fate. Some of the television characters, like Carol, have far outlived their comic counterpart, while others that have already been killed off, like Sophia and Andrea, remained alive for some time in the ongoing comic series. In addition, the writers have included characters wholly novel to the series such as Daryl Dixon, which producer Gale Anne Hurd says helps to create a new dynamic for the show, and keeps the audience guessing from what had already been established in the comic series.

Robert Kirkman himself has mentioned that the series will follow much closer to the comic series with Gimple's run.

List of Doctor Who comic stories
The comic-strip adventures of the Doctor appeared almost from the beginning of the television series, first in the 1960s publication "TV Comic" and then during the 1970s in the mainly Gerry Anderson-related comic "Countdown", later renamed "TV Action".

The character first appeared in the first issue of the comic book series in October 2003, but was expanded upon greatly in the television show adapted from the comics in 2010. As a result, Shane lives much longer in the chronology of the story in the show than he does in the comics. Kirkman described the comic book version of Shane's character as a short and quick "wham, bam, thank you ma'am" arc compared to that of his counterpart in the television series. Kirkman said he preferred the show's version of Shane and that the differences between the two versions of the character illustrate the ability to explore and evolve elements from the comic book in different ways on the show.

Clementine (The Walking Dead)
Clementine first appeared in the 2012 episode video game "The Walking Dead". According to the game's creative lead Sean Vanaman, Clementine was "literally the first idea" for developing the game, with her emotional climax at the finale of the fifth episode being established before any of the game's other dialogue was written. The development team had considered the including of a child in a dark storyline was similar to previous story elements from Robert Kirkman's "The Walking Dead" comic, but still had a difficult time of selling the concept originally. They then set to use Clementine as the "moral compass" for the main player character, establishing her as a "smart, honest, and capable girl" that would reflect on choices made by the player. Telltale had considered other backgrounds for Clementine, such as being from a single-parent family, or being the younger sister of the player character, but found that the pre-established emotional bond between the characters did not fit well, and instead opted to make Lee Everett her father-figure. This led to changing Clementine's race to give her the appearance of possibly being Lee's daughter to other characters.

The Walking Dead (season 4)
In an interview with showrunner Scott Gimple, he shares: "The ultimate inspiration for "The Walking Dead" is the comic book. Sometimes, we can go far away from the comic book story, but often we ultimately serve the comic book story. And even when we go far away from it, we're inspired by it - and the novels as well. And then beyond that, all of the great stuff that we have consumed along the way, from zombie movies to "Star Wars" to other comics to really highbrow movies like "The Grand Illusion" to "Jaws". And also really, world history. The plague storyline was inspired by both Camus' "The Plague" and other stories about the plague I heard in Edinburgh. But really, it starts with the comic book."
The Walking Dead (comic book)
When the television series premiered in October 2010, Image Comics announced "The Walking Dead Weekly". The first 52 issues of the series began to be reprinted on January 5, 2011, with one issue per week for a year.

Revival (comics)
Previews of the first issue were included in "The Walking Dead" #99 and alongside five other upcoming comics in Image's 2012 Free Comic Book Day sampler before the first issue was released on July 11, 2012. It had an initial print run of about 18,000 copies and was available with two covers: the standard version by Frison and a 1-in-10 alternate cover by Craig Thompson. As an added incentive to retailers who normally order on a non-returnable basis, unsold copies of qualifying orders could be returned to Image in exchange for a credit to their account. It quickly sold out at the distributor level and went through at least four printings by December 2012, including one as part of the "Image Firsts" line of $1 reprints in November. By the end of the year, the first issue had sold an estimated 29,100 copies.
Subsequent issues also performed well, requiring additional printings to satisfy demand. The series took a planned one-month hiatus after the fifth issue, which also needed a reprint, to release the first paperback collection. During the break, Image offered an extra 10% discount to retailers who increased their orders by 125% in an effort to bring orders in line with demand and eliminate the costs associated with additional printings. In January 2013, the Phantom group, retailers who commission exclusive covers to provide further attention to series they believe deserve more support, selected "Revival" to be part of the project. Under the Phantom label, the first ten issues were reprinted with new interlocking cover art by Frison. They were only available at stores operated by the retail group. When asked about the book's success in a January 2014 interview, Seeley said "We live and die by word-of-mouth, and so far, the readers and the comic press have been great about spreading the word about our very unusual and unique comic book."
