If you're not heading to the San Diego Comic-Con this week and still want to take part in The Walking Dead #100 celebration, there will be a number of midnight release parties taking place tonight at various comic book shops across North America. Skybound has posted an updated list of participating locations and we have it for you to check out.

If your local comic book store is not on the list, we suggest contacting them to see if they are getting involved. As part of our celebration, we've given away The Walking Dead #100 prize pack and tickets to The Walking Dead Escape: San Diego. We'll also have exclusive coverage and maybe a contest or two from the San Diego Comic-Con later this week.

The Walking Dead #100 will be released with multiple variant covers, featuring artwork from Charlie Adlard, Marc Silvestri, Frank Quitely, Todd McFarlane, Sean Phillips, Bryan Hitch and Ryan Ottley. To view all of the cover art, check out our recent feature at: http://dailydead.com/all-12-variant-covers-for-the-walking-dead-100/

“This extra-sized chapter contains one of the darkest moments in Rick Grimes’ life, and one of the most violent and brutal things to happen within the pages of this series. 100 issues later, this series remains just as relentless as the debut issue. Do not miss the monumental 100th issue of THE WALKING DEAD!”
