how many walking dead comic seasons are there
The Walking Dead (comic book) The fifth season premiered on October 12, 2014, with Scott M. Gimple as the show's third showrunner. Gimple has said that he would stay closer in line to the comic book series events "as much as possible", but ultimately remix stories with certain characters, referencing original characters introduced to the show and deceased characters alive in the comic book as a reason for this.[22] Robert Kirkman himself has mentioned that the series will follow much closer to the comic series with Gimple's run.[23]
