Fan Made “Walking Dead” Event Map Corey, June 17, 2010 AMC’S The Walking Dead, based off of Image Comic’s comic book with the same title, is in the middle of shooting its live action pilot. I’m a huge fan of The Walking Dead, and I’m completely excited for the show to premiere in October, so anything Walking Dead related is a blessing. A few days ago I came across a website completely devoted to both the comic and soon-to-be TV show. I came across what appears to be a map of the events in The Walking Dead as they happened in each issue. For anyone that hasn’t read the comics, the map (available in full here) very spoiler-heavy, so I suggest that you don’t look at it if you haven’t read the comic yet. What’s really cool, to me, is that the map is updated with each issue. Another cool thing about the map is how accurate it is to the comic, actually having real locations from the material in there. The Walking Dead is the story of Rick Grimes (played by Andrew Lincoln in the show) and other survivors in the group of human beings living in a world torn apart by zombies.
