Issue #3 is all about the importance of 'family' in a zombie-infested world, from Rick's dedication to his son, Carl, in the comic book to the more fractious relationship between rival siblings Darryl and Merle Dixon (Norman Reedus and Michael Rooker, both of whom are interviewed in this issue) in the TV series. Also, Robert Kirkman will answer more readers' questions; letterer Rus Wooton reveals all about working on the comic book; we prick up our ears to the music of Bear McCreary; we find out the latest news on the forthcoming Activision videogame; and we visit the set to learn what it takes to be transformed into a flesh-hungry zombie.
