I came away from Robert Kirkman’s first book with mixed feelings. While I was intrigued by the sections in which the TV show and the comics differ, it was clear that the show improved on the parallels in every way. Written years before the group of survivors found the farm, Vol. 2: Miles Behind Us tracks their journey to and from Hershel’s property. Unlike the show, the group makes a short-lived stop at an abandoned gated community.
