On February 9, 2012, we posted that Tony Moore, the original artist of the hit comic book series The Walking Dead had sued long-time [former?] friend, Robert Kirkman. Kirkman, creator of The Walking Dead, claiming that he [Moore} was in truth the co-creator of the series.

A few days later Kirkman’s response was in the news.

At the time I had hope that Moore and Kirkman would be able to come to a mutually satisfactory solution soon.  Unfortunately, that wasn’t to be.  CBR.com has posted the complaint that Moore has now filed in federal court to be named co-author of The Walking Dead; Brit and Battle Pope.

I hate the reality of this situation.

The fine folks at Shock Till You Drop recently caught up with Robert Kirkman and executive producer David Alpert to find out what we should expect in the new season of The Walking Dead.  Here’s a tidbit:

“The biggest thing I have to say is that, as the storytelling picked up at the end of season two, and the speed of events happening — well, we’re increasing it. Season three is going to be non-stop, in your face, intense. This is the point in the show that I’ve been excited about giving the audience since season one.”

This Walking Dead trailer for season three does it right.  The trailer has it all – zombies, the prison, Michonne, the Governor,  Rick and the survivors taking on the living and the dead and … wait. for. it. a special surprise at the end of the trailer.

October 14th cannot get her fast enough.

You’re looking at the cover for the first issue of a new quarterly magazine, officially sanctioned and dedicated to all things Walking Dead.  Walking Dead: The Official Magazine will premiere on October 23rd and feature articles, interviews and behind-the-scenes looks at the comic and television series.

Robert Kirkman, the creator of The Walking Dead had this to say:

“This magazine will be your one stop destination for all the news pertaining to the comic, TV show, video game, toys, games, and whatever else exists in the ever-expanding Walking Dead universe! If it’s happening, you’ll find out all about it right here!”

Thanks and a tip o’ Carl’s hat to CBR.com for their full report.

Keeping with our zombie theme of the last few days, here’s Entertainment Weekly’s first look at Michonne from The Walking Dead.

Here’s a behind-the-scenes teaser for The Walking Dead Season 3 that promises to top everything that’s gone before. 

Man, the second half of the season of The Walking Dead has kicked it up a notch.  Robert Kirkman says that’s always been the plan.  Kirkman also talks about my favorite character in the tv series, Shane.
