100% in agreement with you on this.  We should keep things as is, only adding to the original set when something like Negan Lives comes along with original story content (or variants of original story content, etc.).  For making a set with 'everything' that's what the Custom sets are for.  There's nothing stopping anyone from making a 'Walking Dead: LITERALLY EVERYTHING' Custom set which could include foreign additions, graded trade paperbacks, those random other Image titles where Negan invaded the covers, original printings, etc.  When CGC introduced the Custom sets, this is what their purpose serves...

Ryan, sounds like you're SHOOK! ;)

The problem with this is: where do we set the line to what should be included? Should books from different regions, such as Peruvian or Serbian, be included? Should we include the hardcovers as well? What about compendiums and its variant covers?

If the answer is no, it wouldn't be complete and it wouldn't make sense to include the weeklys and deluxe as well.

If the answer is yes, then it would be impossible and crazy to complete. But it makes more sense.

In my opinion original TWD should have a separate set, same for Deluxe and weeklys.

I am 100% with @ZombieDealer 

Let's add two new sets - Walking Dead Delux with Variants (2020) and Walking Dead Delux (2020). As @Sensei Ryan has said elsewhere, I think any book eligible for the a slot in the first set should be acceptable for its corresponding slot in the second set.

are they reprinting EVERY issue?  

Apparently yes. And there will be variant covers too. I have just seen that issue one has FIVE variants (1A, 1B, 1C, 1D and 1E). I suspect there will be another 600+ by the time we get back to 193 in seven or eight years time....

I would be if I was Ryan with the winning census WD set 2 years in a row.  The Deluxe is a new daunting task ahead of him to get in 9.8-10 grades.  Although I am looking forward to the Deluxe myself so I can collect from issue #1, which I didn't do originally.  This time if the series cancels after issue #1, we know it will be my fault. lol

Now the real question is, #foilfever? :)

Hey Stephen!

I think just 1 set (or 2 sets like you suggested) would be fine, either way.  I'll go with what the consensus says as I think both options would work.  If it's a 100% for sure thing that there will be a variant cover (or more) for every issue, then I could see the rationale for two sets.  If the variants only happen for key or early issues, though, I think one set would be sufficient.  Either way, I'll go with the flow... :ph34r:

Skybound mystery box received, #1 of 2, and happily surprised.  While no Negan Foil.  I did end up with SDCC #193 SS 9.8 with Kirkman sig.

Hey everyone!

I'm working on a project involving extending the border art and I was hoping I could get another WD's eyes on this. This is from the issue 106 cover b variant. It was Adlards commemorative issue celebrating his 100th issue.

WD106B.thumb.jpg.1804787793f2a96572db823bcded1629.jpg

 

The background is composed of interior pages from issue 7-105. I can make out every single page, except for one, and it's the one I need..

At the top left there is a page in between the group arriving at Alexandria the first time and carl being shot. It's partially behind the Skybound box and the word "Image"

Any ideas what this page could be? Thanks in advance for any help!

This is a fun challenge, a TWD scavenger hunt!  I thought about finding OA for this but I’m sure all these older pages were added digitally.  Is this the one you are looking for?  Perhaps @bigclutch could help?

And now we have a BRONZE foil of this comic to find...

That makes SIX variant covers - First Printing, Bronze Foil, Silver Foil, Gold Foil, Red Foil, and the Second Printing.
