Wait, this actually makes it look like they might do the comic justice. Has there been a well-made tv show based on a non-superhero comic to date?

This looks great; not being at all familiar with the comic series I have to ask (to anyone who might know) if there is any connection here between this and 28 Days Later? Between 1:30 and 2:30 it looks very, very similar. (not that it's a bad thing!)

The beginning of both stories: the "waking up in the hospital" idea, is an homage to "Day of the Triffids", the 1951 John Wyndham novel and 1962 film of the same title.

Make sure to say it just like that when one of your friends says, "I couldn't watch the show because from the very start they ripped off '28 Days Later'." And be sure to "make quote marks", "in the air", "with your hands". That will really make them feel like a "dumb, asshole".

And of course, you can compare to the comic (and upvote) here: http://videosift.com/video/The-Walking-Dead-Motion-Comic
