by Robert Kirkman (comics), Frank Darabont (TV), Telltale Games
The dead rose and civilization fell, but the walkers were never the real threat — the living were. Spanning eleven seasons of AMC's landmark television series and four seasons of Telltale's award-winning games, The Walking Dead follows survivors who discover that every community is one bad decision from becoming the monsters outside the walls. Rick Grimes wakes from a coma into the apocalypse and becomes a leader forged by impossible choices. Clementine grows from a terrified eight-year-old into one of the most capable survivors in the franchise. Both stories ask the same question: how much of your humanity can you sacrifice before there's nothing left worth saving?
