The Walking Dead comic book is approaching its 15th year of publication, and things aren’t slowing down, with the six-part “New World Order” arc set to start in January 2018. “New World Order” starts with The Walking Dead #175 by Robert Kirkman and Charlie Adlard, and is billed by Image Comics and Skybound Entertainment as featuring “all new friends, all new enemies, all new threats.” Kirkman talked to CBR about the arc last week at New York Comic Con, and what’s in store from the “real game changer” of a storyline.

Welcome to Comic Book Legends Revealed! This is the six hundred and fiftieth week where we examine comic book legends and whether they are true or false. Yes, we’ve seriously done 650 of these bad boys. Yikes. As we’ve been doing it for some time now, one legend today, one tomorrow and one Sunday. Let’s begin! COMIC LEGEND: The Walking Dead was originally set on another planet, hence it being called Dead Planet. STATUS: Partially False, but Mostly True This week had a bonus CBLR edition as I did one on Wednesday about Robert Kirkman’s The Walking Dead #75, which paid off on an old joke Kirkman had involving aliens and The Walking Dead. However, reader Matt O. wrote in to tell me how aliens actually played much more of a role in the origins of The Walking Dead (and my pal Jamie later noted to me on Facebook, as well, after I had already decided to make this week’s legends be all about the origins of The Walking Dead). Anyhow, the key to this all is that

SPOILER WARNING: This article contains major spoilers for tonight’s episode of AMC’s The Walking Dead, “Worth,” which as of publication has not yet aired on the west coast. Tonight’s episode of The Walking Dead saw one of the Saviors’ most upsetting lieutenants finally get put down. Simon’s plans to stage a coup on Savior leadership were neatly foiled by Negan, but instead of just bashing his old friend’s head in with Lucille, Negan offers Simon the opportunity to save his own life and become the Savior leader by engaging in some hand-to-hand combat to the death. Predictably, despite the fact that he’s unburdened by anything resembling a heart and/or soul, Simon loses and Negan strangles him to death while screaming about how it’s Simon’s fault that Negan’s only option to end the war is to kill every last enemy. Like Rick, he also doesn’t give a f**k about Carl’s dying wishes. First off, let&rsq

The world of Robert Kirkman may still be ruled by the zombies of The Walking Dead. But the main writer behind Skybound Entertainment came into Comic-Con International with new projects on tap and new ideas to share. That was where the Robert Kirkman Spotlight panel started Thursday afternoon in San Diego, and the conversation stayed focused on his creative life. “When I haven’t come up with a new idea or worked on a new book in a while, I get kind of itchy,” he said. “But when I work on something like Die! Die! Die! then come back to The Walking Dead, I’m able to see it with fresher eyes.” RELATED: Die!Die!Die! is a Surprise Attack on the Senses from Kirkman & Burnham The Walking Dead did come into the spotlight as Kirkman spoke about Maggie’s long-running pregnancy, joking, “The farm Maggie is from is on the site of a crashed alien spaceship…and the side effect is that the women from the v

Lead The Walking Dead character Rick Grimes has thus far survived in both AMC’s television series and the comic series it’s based on, but he’s going to have to meet his maker at some point. At New York Comic Con on Thursday, franchise creator Robert Kirkman warned that when Rick’s time comes, don’t necessarily expect his demise on the show to have much in common with that in the comic. “I know exactly how Rick Grimes dies in the comic book and it’s possible there will be some difference there,” said Kirkman. “[In the comics] it could happen next issue or it could happen 10 years from now, I could change my mind. I can’t say anything else.” RELATED: Rick Grimes May Have Just Become The Walking Dead Comic’s Main Villain The fates of many of the characters have differed from those shown in the comic since the premiere of the television series.
