Deciding another retelling staring Carly and Johny.. This time it's the comic version.. The comics are much more interesting than the show in my opinion.. They make you think.
To make things more interesting.. Pink Jones/Lancer, and sisters Dash & Sally Lucia, are brought with Johnny and Carly.. Like the Farcry stories, they came here on the intention of a vacation.. But didn't turn out that way.. Wrong place wrong time, and now things are more complicated..
This is the story of Rick Grimes. Just like the show.. But Rick is my favorite character in the comics, he's "okay" in the show.. I'm very mixed about Andrew Lincoln.
Anyway As you expect, it starts with Rick Grimes and Shane Walsh stuck in a gun fight, but only one criminal, and he seems to be unhinged, against only rick and shane.. Rick is shot into a coma like we know from the show, Shane shot in the hand two, but that's never brought up later.
Rick awakens in a hospital, with no idea he's in a zombie run world. Which speaking of which.. It's so refreshing they actually call them "zombies".
However, when exploring the hospital he cafeteria door blocked by a piece of wood. Rick removes the wood and opens the door only to find multiple zombies inside the room. Rick is horrified and a little confused, especially when one of the zombies lunges at Rick, which causes both of them to fall down a set of stairs where the zombie's head falls off. But in the heat of his understandable terror, Rick doesn't seem to notice.
Shaken and severely confused, Rick leaves the hospital and finds a bicycle. As Rick walks toward the bicycle he sees a zombie that has deteriorated to nothing more than bones. At this sight, Rick is again, understandably horrified.
Shortly after, Rick uses the bike to return to his home and finds that his house has been looted and that his wife and son (Lori and Carl) are both gone. Upon exiting his home, Rick is knocked unconscious by a boy (Duane Jones) with a shovel. The boy's father (Morgan Jones) quickly tells "this man is alive Duane", and they bring him inside.
