    <body><![CDATA[Kirkman still uses quite a bit of exposition, and tends to repeat words in the same dialog bubbles.  Also, I don't like that you don't know where issues start or end.

It's the best vol...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/17190892">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[this is a great continuation of the series.  a couple of the characters encounter an over-the-top villain in a set-up that would seem somewhat improbable.  except.  it's the zombie apocalypse.  it further makes me love michonne and fear for those who fuck with her.  plus, this volume has a nice litt...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/16491736">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[For such a simple story premise, this book just doesn't lose steam.  In spite of the fact that Kirkman is writing other books at this point (Marvel Zombies, for one), he's still able to deliver a continually developing tale and maintain high drama and intrigue (even if his actual writing, particular...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/27065263">more...</a>]]></body>
