Now the group has mastered the art of boating, the possibility is endless. Yes, the main idea is food source (fishes!), but I would really like to see what other countries are dealing with the zombie situations. No, I'm not talking about cutaways with brand new characters, but our survivors physically visiting those locations.

Storytelling issues aside, The Walking Dead #139 is still a worthwhile read. Fans of Michonne will be thoroughly engrossed as she divulges in her past.

If you've been waiting for Michonne and Ezekiel then you finally have what you wanted. However, if you like some plot movement or even some resolution to plots that have been the focus for six months then you will be disappointed. I'm not thrilled that Kirkman has shifted focus without closing some of the other plots out but we'll see where this is headed. This is an average Walking Dead comic book but a comic book worth buying nonetheless. Read Full Review

Things stall a bit here. It's not horrible. You get some character growth but not enough to make this issue anymore than a dull bump on the Walking Dead radar.
