The fall of humanity leads to power struggles, ruthless leadership, and warring communities. This is a world that tests the limits of human endurance and morality.

Reception


The universe of the walking dead


Set in a world ravaged by a zombie apocalypse, The Walking Dead follows the struggles of survivors as they navigate this hostile environment. The universe revolves around ordinary individuals who must use their deepest instincts and abilities to survive. In this stark new reality, civilization has ceased to exist, and the basic norms that humans once held dear have been replaced by a primordial law: survival of the fittest. Zombies, also known as "walkers", are a constant threat, but as the series progresses, it becomes clear that the real danger may be the living survivors themselves, who will do anything to survive. It's a powerful reflection of the human condition, reflecting what people are capable of when pushed to their limits.


Notes

The Walking Dead Universe is a creepy, post-apocalyptic world based on Robert Kirkman's comic series in which people try to survive in a world inhabited by zombies, colloquially known as "walkers". The story begins when sheriff's deputy Rick Grimes wakes up from a coma to find that the world is being taken over by these undead creatures. It's not just walkers that pose a threat, but human nature itself as different factions fight for power and control. The series features a diverse cast of characters, each with their own storyline, and explores themes of community, survival, morality, and the will to sustain humanity in the face of horror and adversity. Since then, the universe has expanded with spin-offs such as Fear the Walking Dead and The Walking Dead: World Beyond, adding new complexity and depth to this fascinating world.
