Book Overview

The Walking Dead #081 is a 27-page comic book issue, first published in February 2011 by Image Comics. It belongs to the long-running The Walking Dead series and continues the story of a group of survivors living inside a walled community under siege by roamers.

After the death of Bruce, Abraham has returned, and Rick is working to keep the citizens calm. At the same time, Glenn worries about Andrea, who is stationed alone in a tower without enough supplies. Jessie has come to Rick for protection, and their relationship is becoming part of the strain between the survivors.

This issue focuses on the practical dangers of the undead, the emotional weight of those who remain, and the difficult decisions needed to keep everyone alive.

What You’ll Discover Inside

• Rick and Jessie’s tense private conversation after the kiss and Pete’s death.
