Book Reviews of The Walking Dead, Vol. 10: What We BecomeBook Review: Remembering Faces Not unlike Our Own Summary: 5 Stars
Rick has come a long way, and the tribulations he's found along the way go well beyond what one man can endure. The talks on the telephone to the voices he can't let go of, the fatherly drive to protect going above and beyond the place where it once was, and the memories - all of the weights that came from the stand at the jail still haven't left his mind. And now he and the new group, partly leftover from the massacre and partly pieced together from the men with that still breathe that precious word called "hope," tie to venture on. along the way they find that is a mirror of himself in a worse way, a need for new weapons and the need for other assortments, and the question of what happens when a person tries to ride a tide. Nothing gets easier, that's for sure.
In the 10th installment of the Walking Dead series, we still have all the things that I feared might fall off the map. We still have the dead and the places they own, we still have the group and the connectivity they have, and we still have no idea who might become the next victim of the necropolis popping up all around. If I had to pick one thing that I love about this series, I would have to say that the writing lends itself to an addictive type of telling. Instead of loose pieces fluttering here and there, this reader still finds himself caught in the beautiful crossfire of a world gone mad. I have no idea where the next bite or bullet might come from, and I have no idea where they might end up lodged. I learned that lesson as the jail fell apart, and I learned it a few more times as I've seen Rick become more and more like the things he still runs from..That, along with the art, keeps me coming back. This series has really been a bargain considering how well it weaves its tale.
For people who have not checked out The Walking Dead, you have really missed out on something. There are survivors in a world of the undead simply trying to live, and the living isn't that easy to do. The storyline is something that might really happen if you saw something like this, too, with main people weaving their way into your mind and then seeing them abruptly pass. The artwork should be praised, too, because it has a feel that captures the way a dying world must be. It is cold, unforgiving, and yet you can see the emotion in the characters as well. One word of advise - if you want this series, don't skip around. It comes highly recommended, going into territories that other books like Crossed (another excellent series) are beginning to touch on. In this type of story, it is new.
