While readers in the US were excited to hear that Skybound was excepting applications from Stateside comic book shops for The Walking Dead #115 midnight release parties, our readers in other areas of the world were a bit worried. However, we expected this would be similar to The Walking Dead #100 release and it turns out that comic book stores around the world will be participating.

Skybound has literally announced hundreds of locations and, while many are in the US, there are also midnight release parties taking place in Canada, the UK, Australia, Belgium, Germany, Mexico, and the Philippines. We've included more information on The Walking Dead #115 below. To check out the full list of participating locations, visit:
