The Zombie. A notable monster in literature and film for decades. Zombie stories are full of gore and violence, tapping into civilization's deepest fear of what comes after death: the inability to rest at the end of one's life. Zombies have also served as symbols for societal topics such as capitalism, colonialism, and, above all, racism. American writers have largely adopted this formula, creating scared white protagonists who must fight for their lives against a mystifying foe. With his comic book zombie epic, The Walking Dead, writer and creator Robert Kirkman breaks from the typical zombie narrative formula. Kirkman, with artists Charlie Adlard and Tony Moore, illustrates a world where the monsters are not the walking dead but your fellow survivors. Kirkman replaces the danger of the mindless zombie or the racial Other, with that of a human who has lost all sense of purpose and forces his reader to question the ethical implications of justifying irrational violence.
