If you haven't caught up on The Walking Dead comic book series lately, you really should. Robert Kirkman's "New Beginning" has introduced new survivors and a new type of enemy, and this is the most excited I've been for new issues in quite some time. For those that don't read the individual issues, Volume 23 is due out in April and we have an early look at the cover art, along with the cover for issue #140.
Due out on April 8th, it's "Life and Death" in The Walking Dead #140 and the cover teases that things aren't getting any better for Maggie at the Hilltop Colony.
