The new AMC show that everyone is talking about, The Walking Dead, is set in a post-apocalyptic world with zombies running amok. A bunch of survivors fights to fight shelter from the ever-present danger which slinks around each corner. The group is controlled by Rick Grimes, a police offer before the breakdown of the Earth as they knew it. Andrew Lincoln is set to star as Rick Grimes on the show and Andrew Lincoln will be playing Jon Bernthal. Laurie Holden from "The Shield" will play the personality of Andrea, one of the survivors who join the group of males and females looking for safety in world collapsing. Season 2 of the Walking Dead is bound to be a triumph and keep perspectives on the fringe of their seats.
Steven Yeun will play Glen, the expert zombie-hunter and survivalist in the show. The part of Rick's other half Lori will be played by Sarah Wayne Callies from "Prison Break". This show will start the production phase in June. It'll be filmed in Atlanta and there will be six one-hour-long episodes for the 1st season. The series is predicted to premier on AMC in October of 2010, during "Fearfest", a marathon of horror and thriller films shown back to back on the network channel. Development of the show was initially articulated in 2009 by AMC. The pilot episode was first debated and declared to the general public this Jan.
Robert Kirkman is a comic book writer who is most famous for his work on "The Walking Dead" and "Invincible" as well as "Marvel Living dead" and "Ultimate X-men". Kirkman's very first work was a ridicule superhero called "Battle Pope", which he made together with fellow writer Tony Moore. In 2002 he made a transitive series called "Tech Jacket" with E.J Su. 2003 was the year that "Invincible" was made by Kirkman, a comic series about the adolescent son of the most powerful superhero in the world.
Solely to show how infatuated with comics Kirman is, he named his child Peter Parker Kirkman after the main personality in the Spiderman series. In the past he has cooperated with Todd McFarlane on "Haunt", a comic series which is about a superhero that's a mix of 2 siblings, one a Catholic clergyman and the other a dead previous secret agent. Ever since Kirkman broke into the comic book world in 2000, he was been offered countless projects with both Image and Wonder comics.
Perhaps the first comic zombie was created by Carl Barks, which was called "Bombie the Zombie", a cartoon spoof of an undead man. Before it turned into a full blown comic, this character appeared in "Voodoo Hoodoo" in 1949. The character was brought back to life by a strong African magician who specialized in Voodoo, sent on a mission to kill Scrooge McDuck by way of poisoning.
Robert Kirkman has played his own role in the zombie genus, writing "The Walking Dead" and working for Wonder comics to make a zombie version of the X-Men. In response to this creation, DC comics came out with its own comic, titled "The Black Lantern Corps", and featured many prior DC characters as revived undead come back from the grave. Although zombies have seen kind of a cultural evolution from the early 1900s, the idiom itself hasn't changed that much. Living dead of all types continue to be prominently featured in several movies, cartoon books, and even songs. One of the most recent examples of zombies in popular culture is the impending "Walking Dead" show that will be appearing on AMC in October. The show relies on the self-published comic by Robert Kirkman and is highly expected by zombie fans everywhere.
