Number 46 - The walking Dead Volume 11 - Fear the Hunters

The last volume ended with the group running away from the farm as it was overrun by a horde of zombies.  This one picks up on the action a few days down the road. 

It all seems to start happily with the discovery of a working van complete with bedding and blankets which will make the journey to Washington so much easier. 

However, the tragic actions of one of the twin boys leads to a moral dilemma.  When that is ended suddenly and violently, the group is stalked and hunted by a group of humans.

This volume was the loose basis of the Terminus storyline in the tv show, and one or two scenes were repeated very faithfully (although with different characters in the victim position)

The usual mix and match of who's alive and who's dead from the tv series to the comics continues - Andrea (on the cover here) died very early in the tv show, but is still here in season 5 events.  I get the feeling that Carol (who is no longer with us in the comics) has been given the Andrea storylines for the TV. 

The artwork seemed sub-par in places in this volume but the story is as gripping as ever. 

These continue to be the best cheat reads I've found to date.
