The Walking Dead, 1

How many hours a day do you spend watching television? When was the last time any of us actually did something to get what we wanted? How long has it been since any of us needed something we wanted? The world we knew is gone. The world of commerce and superfluous needs has been replaced by a world of survival and responsibility. An epidemic of apocalyptic proportions has swept the Earth, causing the dead to rise and feed on the living. In a matter of months, society has crumbled—no government, no supermarkets, no mail, no cable TV. In a world ruled by the dead, we are finally forced to start living.
