Walking Away from The Walking Dead

It’s over. The time has come once again to rebury our dead and take stock. Or you could celebrate; I suppose it all depends on how you view certain characters. But we all know that AMC’s The Walking Dead has shambled on down the road and won’t be coming back until October. But the question remains, how are you going to be spending the zombie off-season?

Myself? I’ve taken comfort in Telltale Games’s AMAZING five-chapter, choose-your-own-adventure style game, The Walking Dead. I’d do anything for Clementine you hear me?! Ahem. There’s also plenty of zombie literature out there for those so inclined. But what about you? Everyone here at Criminal Element wants to know: what you are going to be doing? Answer in the comments and you’ll be entered for a chance to win a copy of Juggernaut by Adam Baker … you know, just to get you started.*

    Books!!!!

  2. Rosemary Harris

    I will probably hang with the Mad Men of the late 60s and The Borgias until World War Z this summer. Bookwise, maybe see if there’s a sequel to Jonathan Maberry’s very good Patient Zero.
    Will not miss Andrea but sorry to see Merle go. I guess he had to..I didn’t see him taking orders from Rick.

  3. Betty Breier

    I’m going to read Warm Bodies by Isaac Marion, see WW Z when it comes out, and watch Season 2 of Longmire, which has nothing to do with zombies, of course, but is a great program anyway. Oh yeah, I’ll also catch up with those other undead folks on True Blood.

  4. James P. Pope

    looks cool

  5. L L

    watch re-runs

  6. Natalie Miller

    I DVRed the marathon and plan to watch it all again. Mostly because the whole first season is a blur. I think I might have been drunk.

    Book-wise, some Scalzi, Patient Zero, The Long Earth, a John Dies at the End reread, Hull Zero Three, and others, I’m sure, as I come across them!

  7. Pam Howell

    Mad Men. Although the season opener was a bit of a disappointment to me.

  8. Lori Myers

  9. Judith Barnes

    i have many zombie books to read, including World War Z, which i need to read before the movie comes out, except i think i’m too late for that. i also need to organize my library and my dvds, and rehome my vhs tapes, so time will fly until Walking Dead comes back.

  32. theresa norris

    I’ll have to read about zombies. I really hate it when the zombie season is over on TV over.

    I’ll be watching ‘face off’ from SyFy so I can improve my zombie look. It’s so frustrating to not know what’s going to trend next season. I’m just not sure about the hemlines.

  39. Anne Marie

    I’m working my way through Roberta Frater’s books. Zombies in a real world setting. Also looking at a couple of anthologys to find new authors. Waiting to get Jonathan Mayberry’s Extinction Machine from the library.
