Have you had a chance to read The Walking Dead #127? Robert Kirkman wasn't kidding when he called the story arc "A New Beginning" and, if All Out War didn't get you excited, this new direction certainly should. With the issue having just been released yesterday, we're going to avoid major spoilers for now, but we do have a look at the cover art for The Walking Dead #130, which appears to feature more brand new characters.

For those that missed our previous coverage, we've included an early look at the cover art for issues #128 and #129. However, they are using the outdated trade dress and should have a logo look very similar to what you see on the cover for #130. This cover art is thanks to our friends at TheWalkingDead.com! In case you missed our earlier coverage, see what Robert Kirkman had to say about the future of The Walking Dead by reading our following special features:
