The Walking Dead Comics 15th Anniversary NYCC Comic Con 2018 Exclusive Promo Pin 1". This is a collectible pin commemorating the 15th anniversary of The Walking Dead comic series, spanning from 2003 to 2018. This specific badge was released as part of the 2018 New York Comic Con (NYCC) celebrations. The pin features the Walking Dead logo in orange over a black background, surrounded by the text "FIFTEEN YEARS" and the years "2003-2018". It was distributed to celebrate the anniversary alongside other special comic releases, such as blind bag variants of issue #1. The Walking Dead is an award-winning monthly comic book series created by writer Robert Kirkman and artist Tony Moore. Published by Image Comics and Skybound Entertainment, it debuted in October 2003 and concluded in July 2019 after 193 issues. Unlike traditional superhero comics, the series famously ran entirely in stark black-and-white to enhance its gritty, cinematic atmosphere. Core Creative TeamRobert Kirkman (Writer/Creator): Wrote the entire 193-issue narrative arc. Tony Moore (Artist): Drew the first 6 issues and remained the cover artist through issue #24. Charlie Adlard (Primary Artist): Took over penciling and inking from issue #7 until the series finale. Format and Collections The series spans 32 volumes (with each volume gathering a 6-issue story arc). For fans looking to read the entire series, it is widely collected into massive The Walking Dead Compendiums on retail platforms like Target, containing roughly 48 issues per book. Major Differences From the TV ShowWhile the AMC show is a global phenomenon, the original comic features completely different character fates, tones, and plot points: Rick Grimes: Lives a drastically different path and remains the central anchor right up until his definitive comic book death in issue #192. Andrea: Instead of dying early like her TV counterpart, Andrea survives nearly the entire comic run, becoming Rick's primary romantic partner and a hardened sniper. Carol & Judith: Carol succumbs to mental instability early on at the prison. Infant Judith does not survive the initial governor siege, radically altering Carl's character progression. Daryl Dixon: Daryl is a completely original creation for the television show and never appears anywhere in the comic books. The Walking Dead follows small-town deputy Rick Grimes as he wakes from a coma to find the world overrun by flesh-eating zombies. After reuniting with his family, Rick leads a revolving band of survivors across a devastated American landscape.While the undead pose a constant threat, the true horror comes from the living, as human groups compete for dwindling resources and power. Over 15 years of narrative time, Rick and his community transition from simple survival to rebuilding civilization, discovering that the ultimate cost of safety is often their own humanity.
