    Newsarama - Justin Partridge Jul 5, 2019

    Honestly, that should be the lasting legacy for The Walking Dead - consistency. Consistent shocks, consistent stakes, and consistent surprises. It was only fitting that their last one be the finale. And wouldn’t you know it, even that is a rock-solid experience, paying loving tribute to the universe it created and its characters. They say part of the journey is the end, and Robert Kirkman, Charlie Adlard, and Cliff Rathburn made both worthwhile. Putting a heartfelt capstone on an incomparable achievement in creator-owned comic books, The Walking Dead has more than earned its time to rest in peace. Read Full Review

    Nerdly - Dean Fuller Jul 10, 2019

    This was a delight from start to finish. Kirkman and Adlard delivered perfect script and art, as consistent nearly two decades later as when it all began. This was a perfect love letter to the world Robert Kirkman created and like all love affairs, it hurts to leave. But leave we must. When you leave with both a smile and a tear, it's been the perfect journey. Read Full Review

    Graphic Policy - Brett Jul 3, 2019

    Fans of The Walking Dead might be both sad and happy with how things have wrapped. We're not totally without future stories. From television shows to books, there's much more life into this world yet to come and experience. And we can go into that with the knowledge that there's hope for a future that's a little better. A series whose message is that through trials and tribulations we can all make a better future. For a world built off of a bleak premise, its gift is one of a brighter future we can all make together. Read Full Review

    They could have easily milked it for another five or even ten years. But they opted not to ruin their legacy and go out with a bang. Kudos. Read Full Review

    Is any of this curtain call good? To paraphrase another negatively-received finale in 2019, ask us again in ten years. Or rather, don't. Read Full Review
