The Walking Dead (iPhone and iPad) – Get the free first issue of the comic series based on the popular AMC TV show. A global epidemic has caused the dead to rise and feed on the living, and… Well, who doesn’t know what life with zombies is like?

From the app description: “In a matter of months, society has crumbled: There is no government, no grocery stores, no mail delivery, no cable TV. Rick Grimes finds himself one of the few survivors in this terrifying future. A couple months ago he was a small town cop who had never fired a shot and only ever saw one dead body. Separated from his family, he must now sort through all the death and confusion to try and find his wife and son. In a world ruled by the dead, we are forced to finally begin living.”

Read the first issue of the comic series free, and if you like it, you can purchase more comics in the series via in-app purchase.
