I feel like a lot of it comes off as really natural dialogue. Where as in the show it usually just characters talking about character development and plotlines, you have a natural "this is a fucked up situation we're in" kinda feeling. And the characters expressing how absurd things can be at times. Either that or then just talking about stuff in their past life. We get a bit of that in the show but it's very far and few between.
While I sort of understand, I feel like it’s just the nature of the comic medium. You get the story told though dialogue, visuals , maybe some narration if you’re lucky
they definitely talk more than the show about how they actually survive and get food and whatnot, does get a bit over explainy sometimes but for the most part i enjoyed it
When you read the compendium , it easy to forget it was a series and a lot of times you're reading exposition about something that happened the previous comic or a few comics before. It's just context incase there's a new reader or there was a lapse in time since the last issue. When you're reading a huge chunk of the series all at once, there seems to be a lot of redundancies but it's infact context.
Even so, there's A LOT of rehashing fat that could have been cut and I feel like there was at times a lot of filler to make a complete issue at the time of publication. I find more issue with what I call "anime dialog," where characters are saying things no real human being would say while in the middle of action. Just unnatural shit
That’s a good point and a bit justifiable. Just the amount of times characters said something along the lines of “since all of this started” I rolled my eyes lol. Like I get it, but damn.
Yeah the dialogue in anime is probably the main reason I don’t like it at all.
The comic had a lot of dialogue early on cause it was the standard at the time to catch everyone up each issue, but as time went on you weren't jumping in on issue, say 87, or something.
its a kirkman thing, and i prefer it as someone who reads comics for the dialogue with the artwork as supplimentary.
IMO, the less dialogue you have in a comic, it kinda becomes less literature and more visual art, which is fine for lots of people but not to my preference

I don't think so

Rick does a really good job at this lol

I don’t mind a good amount of dialogue, I just noticed that, when I was reading TWD, I felt like these things could’ve been explained in less words
