FIRST TIME'S A CHARM

Image Comics reprints IMAGE FIRSTS: THE WALKING DEAD in time for debut of AMC series

The Image Firsts program has been an unparalleled success, introducing comics fans to classic Image titles for only $1.00. IMAGE FIRSTS: THE WALKING DEAD was a sellout at the distribution level, despite an extremely large overprint, and Image Comics is delighted to announce that the book is going back to press!

With Image Firsts, Image Comics is re-presenting first issues as an introduction to our most acclaimed titles, with each acting as the perfect primer to their ongoing series and collected editions!
