Synopsis from Goodreads:

Introducing the first eight volumes of the fan-favorite, New York Times Best Seller series collected into one massive paperback collection.

In a world ruled by the dead, we are forced to finally start living. With The Walking Dead #1-48, this compendium features more than one thousand pages chronicling the start of Robert Kirkman's Eisner Award-winning story of zombie horror, from Rick Grimes waking up alone in a hospital, his band of survivors seeking refuge on an isolated farm and the controversial introduction of Woodbury despot, The Governor.

Why it's perfect for October:

I have read the first half of this massive comic collection and it's the perfect read for fans of the show! While the comic and show are similar, there are some key differences that I noticed while reading so it isn't a total repeat of the story you may already know. The pacing is a bit on the slower side but there are plenty of zombies and adventure to be explored.
