Man, I thought Lori was annoying on the show but she's even worse in these. More detailed review to come.

I don't know what it is about this series. I don't find it to be exceptional in any way and yet I keep buying the next volume because I feel like a zombie read and I figure I'm following these characters already....They aren't bad reads, but there's just very little 'new' in them and there seems to be a cycle forming with these volumes that leads to less character growth.I'm not sure if it is the art, the writing, or a combination of both, but I find it hard to tell many of the secondary charact...

Finally, the group have reached the prison. Safe haven, or just another nightmare waiting to happen? As usual with this series, this draws you in with complex characters only to rip your heart out on the next page. Fast paced, deadly, and with a hint of mystery. You never quite know who’s going to survive - whether that be from zombie attack or each other. The fighting and the struggle never let up, and remains fast paced throughout. As the group gets wise to zombie fighting, we also see more in...

5/5The Skinny:The same crew…sort of…is back. They believe that they have found the perfect place to live; space for everyone, food, and best of all, no zombies! But, as is almost always the case with The Walking Dead, nothing ever goes quite as planned.My Thoughts:I will just cut to the chase – Safety Behind Bars has been my favorite. I’m kind of surprised that after three zombie-filled volumes, that these graphic novels still deliver big. I found this installment to be bloodier, more shocking,

This was the best volume so far!

So in this volume, they found a prison, with some prisoners that were left behind still living there. Needless to say this leads to chaos, because everyone has their own thoughts on the matter, and no one wants to trust the convicts. Here's where they inevitably start to turn on each other, with Rick barely holding them together. The zombies are dealt with for the meantime, but death is still all around them. One of the prisoners isn't being truthful, and bodies start piling up; not even the kid...

The bloody, putrid, rotting corpse of soap opera goodness that is The Walking Dead graphic novels is in its full balls out glory in the third collection Safety Behind Bars.Lori is pregnant with Shane's baby -- And in case you don't know, Shane is the former best friend of Rick, Lori's husband. Not only that, though, Lori and Rick's son Carl shot Shane dead. Not only that, though, Shane was buried after his death, and Rick realizes over the course of the story that Shane is probably zombified (mo...

***3 stars***Thoughts about this volume:1. Even in the comics, I HATE Laurie 🤦‍♀️😂 maybe even more than TV Laurie. 2. I am not a fan of Andrea and Dale together. Her promising to spend the rest of her life with him is just a tad too yucky for me.3. I'm used to people dying on The Walking Dead, but so many characters died such stupid deaths here, I didn't like it..4. It's still hard for me to get used to everyone, new or known characters, because they're so drastically different from the TV show...

YOU KILL. YOU DIE. These are simple words, though they’re my favourite phrase so far. Every society needs rules, and it shows how desperate this one is to create such a brutally necessary one. If you want to live under Rick’s protection, that’s the pact you take. If you kill another group member, if you kill a friend, you, too, will die. Seems fair enough in this world, but nothing is that simple. As soon as this line was delivered I knew the rule would soon be broken…. At least they tried thou

I really enjoyed this volume. I can't remember how close it was to the show, but found the story amazing.

Unpopular opinion; I’m not a fan of the tv show. The comics are growing on me though especially being a fan of his other series

So I am reading the first compendium again so I can read the second and the third. This time, I will rate them by the volume that they are.WrensReads Review:The third volume is my favorite so far. Rick and the gang are cleaning out the prison to make it into a home. Rick swallow his pride and tells Hershel and his family to come live in the prison with them because it is safer there.Or is it?You see, there are prisoners there that don't know what has been going on in the outside world. They have...

Fatigue strikes on volume 3. This isn’t the grovels fault but my own for trying to read this whilst watching the show simultaneously. The show is just a shower of shit now and that has tarnished any opinion of anything related right now. I’ll take a break before hitting up the next one.

YOU KILL , YOU DIE So simple rulethose are the rules now xD , it was the best volume so far <3

Prisons are ideal places in this reality! This is the third volume of the softcover editions of "The Walking Dead", collecting the comic book issues from #13 to #18.Creative Team:Writer: Robert KirkmanIllustrators: Charlie Adlard Additional gray tones to inking: Cliff Rathburn Chapter Three SAFETY BEHIND BARS I ain’t gonna bury you again you son of a bitch. In our society, you never would want to go prison, but in an apocalyptical dystopia plagued with zombies, a prison would look like

Volume 3 of The Walking Dead might be the bleakest, bloodiest and most miserable in the series so far - and the first two volumes were pretty damn miserable! This is a book where the dead are dug out of their graves just to be shot in the head, and that’s not even counting the butchered children or the suicide pacts! So the group have made it to a prison which is infested with zombies but, once cleared, could be a safe haven for them. Inside are a handful of remaining inmates - but can these con...

This one felt a little slower until the end, and it definitely feels like some scenes are added in for pure shock value. Looks like their journey is going to continue so I'll be along for the ride to see where they end up next. They should probably get rid of some people, too. Travel light, less characters taking up space. People are freaking out and having these crazy mood swings all the time. You would think the zombie apocalypse happened our something. Hopefully it's not this bad when the rea...

Love this series so much

Things are really getting crazy now! This series is so good! I LOVE the covers by Tony Moore, they are brilliant. I still wish the comic was in colour (yes I know I've said it before) but I feel like it could have brought a lot more to the comics. I mean the covers are in colour and they're spectacular. I have a thing for pretty colours that work together. Anyway, I also love the story. You think things can't get any worse for the group but Robert Kirkman just keeps throwing stuff at them! I'm i...

Ohhhhh snippity snap! That was intense! There were some serious curve-balls thrown in this volume, and some huge reveals that have enormous consequences. I dunno if that facial protection I mentioned in my status update would really make a difference after all, if you know what I'm saying. I actually think that this has been my favorite volume so far. The characters are familiar enough to me that I can identify with them so much better, and the situations that they are in are... intense. And shi...
