About this Collection

This volume collects issues #19-24 of the acclaimed zombie survival series. The story follows Rick Grimes and the group as they settle into a seemingly safe prison, only to face new threats from within and without, including the introduction of the ruthless Governor. The volume explores themes of leadership, morality, and the fragile nature of civilization in a post-apocalyptic world.

In "The Heart's Desire," the fragile peace of the prison sanctuary shatters when Rick takes a brutal stand against Dexter, leading to a pivotal moment that fractures the group’s unity. The arrival of the enigmatic Michonne introduces new tensions, especially when her connection with Tyreese sparks a crisis that forces the survivors to reevaluate their leadership. Written by Robert Kirkman and illustrated by Charlie Adlard, with colors by Cliff Rathburn and letters by Rus Wooton, this issue’s cover by Tony Moore captures the growing unease.
