The Walking Dead, Volume 9
Title: The Walking Dead, Volume 9 : Here We Remain
Author: Robert Kirkman
Rating: 4
This has been a quite interesting and thought provoking series. On the face it appears to be "just another zombie series" but the story delves into much deeper territory. You should give it a try.
