Yes, I'm reading Walking Dead. It's pretty good overall but really violent and dark. I was actually quite surprised that a basic cable channel (AMC) picked it up for a short series. In my mind, it's more appropriate fare for R-rated HBO or Showtime. From my understanding, though, the TV episodes will only cover the first 12 or so issues of the comic, before it starts getting really grim and brutal. The comic definitely takes a cynical, pessimistic view of human nature. It's kind of like The Road, in that respect.
