The new AMC show that everyone is talking about, The Walking Dead, is set in a post-apocalyptic world with living dead running amok. A grouping of survivors struggles to fight shelter from the ever-present danger which lurks around every corner. The group is led by Rick Grimes, a police offer before the collapse of the world as they knew it. Andrew Lincoln is about to star as Rick Grimes on the program and Andrew Lincoln will be playing Jon Bernthal. Laurie Holden from "The Shield" will play the character of Andrea, one of the survivors who join the group of men and women attempting to find safety in world falling apart. Season 2 of the Walking Dead is certain to be a hit and keep views on the edge of their places.
Steven Yeun will play Glen, the expert zombie-hunter and survivalist in the show. The part of Rick's spouse Lori will be played by Sarah Wayne Callies from "Prison Break". This show will start the production phase in June. It is going to be filmed in Atlanta and there'll be 6 one-hour-long episodes for the first season. The series is anticipated 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 originally declared in 2009 by AMC. The pilot episode was first discussed and pronounced to the public this January.
Robert Kirkman is a comic writer who is most renowned for his work on "The Walking Dead" and "Invincible" as well as "Marvel Zombies" and "Ultimate X-men". Kirkman's first work was a mock superhero called "Battle Pope", which he created along with fellow writer Tony Moore. In 2002 he created a short-lived series called "Tech Jacket" with E.J Su. 2003 was the year that "Invincible" was created by Kirkman, a comic series about the teen child of the strongest superhero on the planet.
Simply to show how infatuated with comics Kirman is, he named his boy Peter Parker Kirkman after the key character in the Spiderman series. During the past he has collaborated with Todd McFarlane on "Haunt", a comic book series which is about a superhero that may be a mixture of two bros, one a Catholic priest and the other a deceased former secret agent. Ever since Kirkman broke into the comic world in 2000, he was been offered numerous projects with both Image and Marvel 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 genre, writing "The Walking Dead" and working for Wonder comics to create a zombie version of the X-Men. Replying to this creation, DC comics came out with its own comic, titled "The Black Lantern Corps", and featured many prior DC characters as revived zombies come back from the grave. Although living dead have seen somewhat of a cultural evolution from the early 1900s, the genus itself hasn't changed that much. Undead of all kinds continue being prominently featured in many pictures, comic books, and even songs. One of the most recent examples of undead in popular culture is the imminent "Walking Dead" show that will be appearing on AMC in October. The show is based on the self-published comic by Robert Kirkman and is very anticipated by zombie fans everywhere.
