The Walking Dead is a media franchise created by Robert Kirkman and Tony Moore including a comic book series, two television series, six novels, video games, and various other media such as audio books and sound tracks.
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.
