The Walking Dead Issue #105 Review

     Just a quick post today, it's been a hectic week for me with Christmas, work and other family issues going on, but I am back! And this time I come bearing gifts! A review for TWD Issue #105! So lets dive right in...

     Ok, so I am going to try my best to avoid spoilers but this issue blew my mind a little, and could be one of the best in recent months. With Carl having stowed away in the Savior's truck and blowing many of them away at the end of #104 we were left with a cliffhanger as we often are, what will Negan do? Well we are given a partial answer as the entire issue revolves around the interaction with Carl and Negan. We learn more about the way Negan and his "town" lives and see the way this new society of his works, for better or worse.
     I need to note that this issue seems to be setting up some big events. I have read the end letters after each issue trying to gobble up any info I can, and it seems that issue #106 will be the true landmark issue. At least that's the rumor anyway. While #100 was great, I felt more could have been in the works, will #106 finally deliever? It seems we have to wait to January to find out.
     As a whole this issue is fantastic with plenty of character development and even some good ole' gore to make us happy. If you haven't been reading the issues monthly, then you definitely need to jump on board now and catch up as some BIG things are in the works over in the world of The Walking Dead. This could be the biggest story arc since the Prison arc, and it has the possibility of even rising above the fan favorite era of TWD. Negan is just as sick and twisted as the Governor, if not more so, and Rick is now in an even more harsh position. Character deaths have also trailed off in recent months which makes me think Kirkman has big things planned for the next few issues.
     Issue #105 seems to be a precursor to bigger events and it is just making the wait to next month, the first issue of the new year, THAT much harder to wait for.

Verdict: MUST BUY
