Tony Moore - Walking Dead #19 cover

media type:pencil and ink, art type: cover, artists: Tony Moore

Here it is, one of the 2 most sought after covers of the series(along with #16) and arguably the best one of the two! Die hard Walking Dead fans know that the Tony Moore covers are the most sought after and difficult to acquire of the series. This is due in part to Moore having been the original artist on the series as well as due to Moore not having done very many. Even Charlie Adlard will tell you that although he excels in storytelling, Moore's sense of cover design is much better than his own.

Possibly the most important to make is that out of the small number of covers Moore created, very few contain zombies and only two of them contain zombies as part of the foreground. This is one of those. The reason I feel this cover is slightly more desirable than #16 is because the real heart of this book is its human characters, with Michonne perhaps being the coolest one of them all, and this cover offers you not only a main human character, but also a couple of full figured zombies to go along with her.
