Robert Kirkman's The Walking Dead is an independent comic book smash hit that has never met a comic book industry rule that it hasn't broken or convention that it hasn't defied. And after its record breaking debut on AMC, The Walking Dead series is set to do the same in television. Along with artists Tony Moore and Charlie Adlard, writer Robert Kirkman has a bonafide comic book phenomena in The Walking Dead. How did it happen? Why does it resonate with so many people? What is it that makes it such a great comic book? And perhaps the most important question of all: Why is it the one book that comic book that just about everyone in the industry -- from creators to media to fans -- has agreed not to spoil? The premiere episode of The Walking Dead was not only helmed by Frank Darabont but it broke every ratings record that AMC had. How was the translation from page to screen and are the iFanboys excited for the future of the Walking Dead TV series? NOTE: We try to keep as spoiler-free as possible in this episode. Spoilers in the comments section will be removed. Less
