Update: Mr. Blahg and I have now split off of The Walking Dead 'Cast to release Under the Comic Covers as our own podcast. We will record weekly, and in addition to The Walking Dead, we will cover several other of our favorite indie comic series, such as Saga, Revival, Chew, Sex Criminals, and more. We will still join Jason and Karen on their show for the Comic Talk segment.

Awesome! 45mins of Walking Dead comic talk!

Cool episode. I liked the comparisons to the faction leaders to real-world politicians and what the people expect from them.

Idk, I liked the Knight guards at the Kingdom and I liked Shiva too. Even though Walking Dead is a comic we don't often get many "comic-ie" moments like that. Things like the Knight guards and Shiva keep things a little light hearted with all the other heavy stuff going on. I think that is why I like Dwight so much. He just comes off as awesome comic book villain because of ironed face. I love it.

Thanks, SPRATT. I know Shiva won a lot of people over - I'm just stubborn. I don't think I could ever come to like the knights and the kingdom speak, though. I'd take Shiva any day over that stuff. I was so glad when they dropped it. I've totally done a 180 on Ezekiel, for sure. I didn't care for him at all when he was first introduced.

Imagine a group of a hundred motorcycles driving down a freeway. Eventually, they hit a junction. One road goes northwest and the other goes northeast. So one guy, we'll call him S, says, "Let's go northwest!" A mile past the intersection, a semi careens into the group and kills ninety of them. Ten are wounded, but they survive and keep going. Eventually, they hit 10,000 miles. S suddenly has his consciousness thrown into his past body right before the junction. Now, he says, "Let's go northeast!" All 100 bikers survive. Happily ever after, right? But what about the ten, no nine, who went northwest and survived? What happens to the reality they were living? Does it just disappear now that S has changed the past? It's not like only bad things happened on that 10,000 mile journey. Maybe one of them fell in love with a gas station attendant and got her pregnant or maybe one adopted a homeless kid that joined the adventure. That 10,000 mile journey would be full of stories. Romances, farewells, friendships...the loss of those ninety lives is horrible and unfortunate, but what would rewriting their history mean? The nine who survived lived full lives and did the best they could with the hand they were dealt. How could it be right to just erase all that? Isn't that worth something? Is there a point to a world where everything is happy? Are people who struggle for a better life just idiots? Being human is about fighting even when it seems hopeless and finding happiness in a world that hates it. Are you saying that's worthless?

Thanks for taking the time to write in, Monroe. We really, really appreciate it. :)

I encourage other people to write in, as well. If not now, then after #119 is released.

Thanks again!

Oooooooh, i like what you are insinuating.

But still...let me guess. Next podcast is gonna be ALL about the Koibito and his contributions to the fandom, isnt it?

If it is, I'am ready for my closeup.

Heh. :P We recorded on Thurs night.

Unfortunately, I don't think it's going to be posted until Wed. Jason is releasing an episode today or tomorrow and wants to space out the episodes a bit, I think.

I'm hoping the other episodes can be released soon after the issue is released, though.
