The Walking Dead comic’s 20th Anniversary box set images sneak peek
By Renee Hansen
This October, Image Comics and Skybound Entertainment celebrate the 20th Anniversary of The Walking Dead comics with unique boxed sets. These limited-edition sets contain the story created by Robert Kirkman, who also created Invincible, Firepower, Outcast, and Oblivion Song.
The new first-look images showcase the sets volumes and iconic Walking Dead artistry of the Eisner Award-winning comic book series.
The four sets are broken down into affordable packages and contain the original black & white paperback volumes.
- Box set #1 features volumes 1-8 with art by Tony Moore and Charlie Adlard.
- Box set #2 features volumes 9-16 with art by Charlie Adlard.
- Box set #3 features volumes 17-24 with art by Charlie Adlard.
- Box set #4 features volumes 25-32 with art by Charlie Adlard.
"“It’s staggering to me that after 20 years, this series is still in demand and still expanding into different formats,” said Kirkman. “It’s humbling to be hearing stories of this series now being passed down to the next generation of fans, and maybe those fans need a sturdy box for their books to live in.”"
