Narrative Supposing Books The Walking Dead, Vol. 4: The Heart's Desire (The Walking Dead (Collected Editions) #4)
This comic reads like it's been written by a 15 year old boy with a constant erection. The Walking Dead is a great premise poorly executed. The characters are insipid, with no defining qualities to empathise with. The plot rapidly and repeatedly flits between killing and sex, with little meaning or worthwhile emotion given to either. This volume is particularly bad, portraying every character as sex-crazed. Almost every adult character has had sex, often with different partners, as if in a world of only 20 people everyone would just naturally and happily pair off. Carol has now had sex with Tyrese, kissed Lori and kissed Rick. It has the plot of a Jilly Cooper novel, with everyone wildly having sex with everyone at the drop of a hat, and talking in the most clichéd way possible about their sexual desire and exploits. I don't deny the importance of characters having sex, and appreciate it's an animal instinct that could offer some rare enjoyment in an apocalyptic world, but the frequency and tactlessness is ridiculous. Their friends are dying all around them, and yet they still have wild sexual urges. I'm pretty sure that's not how grief works. The female characters are so paper-thin and sex hungry that it feels like the writers have never actually met a woman in real life. When they do attempt philosophy or feelings, it's written in the most formulaic clichéd way, it makes my skin crawl. The action moves so quickly from one death to the next, that often characters aren't even around long enough to learn their name, let alone get remotely invested in them, and therefore as a reader you simply don't care when they die.Particularize Appertaining To Books The Walking Dead, Vol. 4: The Heart's Desire (The Walking Dead (Collected Editions) #4)

Okay so this is easily my least favorite volume out of the four I've read so far. I was really excited when I saw Michonne finally get introduced, as she's one of my favorite character in the show, but her character is a total bitch in the comics and I hate that. I hate how all of the women are portrayed in these comics, but specifically in this volume, it's really bad. SPOILERS BELOWThis particular volume is full of nothing but drama. And not even the good kind of drama, but the stupid loveWell. That was brutal. And grim. The times... they are a-changin'! Still so great though. I am really loving this series, especially the artwork. There were panels in this volume that show Tyreese in such detail, and I love how intricate the drawings are. The fact that you can see the way his right ear folds down just a tiny bit at the top is so impressive to me. Or how you can tell so much about how Lori is feeling just by her facial expressions - she doesn't have to say a word. I love that
A cage is a cage not matter what. This is the fourth volume of the softcover editions of "The Walking Dead", collecting the comic book issues from #19 to #24.Creative Team:Writer: Robert KirkmanIllustrators: Charlie Adlard Additional gray tones to inking: Cliff Rathburn Chapter Four THE HEARTS DESIRE Cry me a river. Enter: Michonne,......mysterious Afro-American woman with a samurai sword. Nuff said!Ricks group has troubles in all fronts. Menaces outside and inside of the prison.Rick finally
There are a LOT of gifs ahead.Oh my. Oh my.Oh. my.You said it, Glenn. It really, really is.Guys...I can't do this without spoilers so you've been warned.SPOILERS AHEADWhere the hell do I even begin?? And why has it taken me four volumes to realize how freaking fucking sexist this series is? Ok, ok. There have been hints of it in every issue, but nowhere near as blatantly stupid as this.Have any of these writers ever met a woman before? Because, I really, really wonder. Let's just go ahead and
"WE ARE THE WALKING DEAD". Another great volume of TWD comics. This volume focuses on morality and how the group are going to have to adapt if they want to survive. What's right? What's wrong? You can stay "humane" and get munched on or you can kill and survive. I really liked it. Everyone is fighting and it's great. I'm so obsessed with this story! I might start watching the TV show even though I know they're different and I also know lots of spoilers for the show! The shit hits the fan
Yessss! Finally some Michonne! My girlllll!!!
I don't like this stuff for the zombies and all the different ways to kill them. What keeps me reading and occasionally watching is the human aspect of it. When everything changes so dramatically, what is right and wrong? Is killing someone wrong if it's justified? Who's in charge of making the decisions? Who makes the law? What are the consequences for breaking the law?A lot of those questions are out there and the group is trying to find answers, but many of them are becoming unhinged. There
