Quote:I've wondered about this, as I don't want any spoilers. For example, I enjoyed the suspense of this season's premiere so much, due to having no real idea who was going to get Lucilled. My friend, who has read the graphic novels, traveled to the studio sets in Atlanta and is all about TWD social media discussion groups, wrote her prediction on a piece of paper I refused to read, and she nailed it. That would have ruined it for me.

 

Have you, or any others, read any of the graphic novels on a Kindle? They are black and white, so the color shouldn't be an issue, I'm wondering if it's presented pane by pane or 4 to a page. Some fonts can get too small for comfortable reading, but if you zoom in I'm worried you may not get the full impact of the graphics.

 

I haven't read on Kindle, but let me talk about spoilers a bit.

 

Personally, I was not spoiled by the comic.  In fact, I was so engrossed in it I couldn't stop when I caught up with events in the show.  I had to continue.

 

It was not to my detriment.  Reading ahead didn't spoil things for me.  In some ways, it's enhanced by TV experience.

 

Example... in the comic only Glenn got the sledge o matic.  The season opener wasn't spoiled at all.  It was still outstanding and over the top to me.  Judging with the things I've "known" and how they've developed them into the show, I believe they build this into the production.  They are keenly aware of the comic fans and pay a lot of attention to "get right" the things they are anticipating and know will happen.  IMO they've done a great job in thinking out "how" they do it to satisfy both those who have and have not read the source material.
