The Walking Dead (comic book)
The Walking Dead is a black-and-white comic book series created by writer Robert Kirkman with art by Tony Moore. It focuses on Rick Grimes, a Kentucky deputy who is shot in the line of duty and awakens from a coma in a zombie apocalypse that has resulted in a state-wide quarantine. After joining with other ones, he gradually takes on the role of leader of a community as it struggles to survive the zombie apocalypse.
Outcast by Kirkman and Azaceta
"Outcast" was officially announced on October 2013 at New York Comic Con, after two years of development. Kirkman said it was the first time that he already had a clear ending in mind when he began to write the comic book. He described "Outcast" as an epic horror story, hoping to give real scares to readers, unlike "The Walking Dead" style. Kirkman said that orders for the first issue were higher than for the most recent issue of "The Walking Dead".Cinemax picked up the rights to produce a show based on the comic in 2013. Ten episodes were announced to be produced with Patrick Fugit (Kyle Barnes) and Philip Glenister (Reverend Anderson) as the leading roles for the television series, which premiered in June 2016.
