Yeah the CDC was never in the comics.

Yes but the only reason it was doing so was because it was running out of power and therefore couldn't sustain the security. So if it had an unlimited supply of energy (Solar) it could remain functional indefinitely right?

That would imply that the government was smart enough to install something like that. Instead, they were spending money on $20 hammers to bash zombies with ;)

The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman has revealed that more characters from the comic will appear in AMC's TV adaptation.

The writer told USA Today that the character of Michonne - a mysterious ex-lawyer who fights off the undead with a samurai sword - is likely to appear in a future episode.

"[showrunner] Frank [Darabont] has already hinted at the fact we'll be seeing Michonne as early as season two," he said.

However, he claimed that sinister villain The Governor is unlikely to feature in the next run of thirteen episodes.

"The Governor is probably a little ways off from season two," he admitted. "Maybe season three or beyond."

Kirkman also confirmed that he is keen to introduce the original character of Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus) into the comic series. He previously admitted that writing scenes for the character in the show's fourth episode "was great".

The Walking Dead will return to AMC later this year.

Watched the entire of Season 1 last night. Really enjoyed it. I liked the fact it was realistic as possible (although camping in an open area - not so good), also liked the fact they didn't go down the route of "oh I have unlimited ammo".

I think having 6 episodes is a good idea. Forces the story to move on somewhat quicker, and ensures the episode has some action at least. But I hear that Season 2 will have more episodes, around 13 at least.

Well the reason for that is most likely that AMC never expected the show to be such a massive hit. I am certain that they regret only ordering 6 episodes but in their defense, they did not have the luxury of hindsight l when they initially placed the order for the show.

The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman has joked that he would happy to have troubled actor Charlie Sheen join the cast of the AMC adaptation of his comic series.

Kirkman, who is serving as executive producer on the show's upcoming second season, said that he thinks that Sheen is "awesome" and could have any part he wanted.

"Charlie call us, we will totally make that happen," Kirkman told The Hollywood Reporter. "We'll do whatever you want."

The comic writer even went as far as to joke that he would recast the show's lead role of Rick Grimes, currently played by British actor Andrew Lincoln.

"We'll recast you as Rick," Kirkman added. "Andrew Lincoln will find something else to do."

The second season of The Walking Dead is expected to launch this October.

IGN reports that Laurie Holden, who plays Andrea on AMC's The Walking Dead dropped some cool news on the audience attending C2E2 today. She said horror author Stephen King is in talks to pen an episode of The Walking Dead season 2.

Frank Darabont already has a close and creative relationship with the author. Darabont adapted The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile and The Mist, all from the mind of King

It was also revealed at C2E2 that Darabont will probably not direct the first episode of season 2, but he will helm an episode later in the year.

      And here goes the "Won't someone think of the children" brigade. Get stuffed mate. This has NOTHING to do with making the internet safe. It's about tracking adults, spying on your online activity, and sending the boys around when they don't like something you post. Also, again, parliament have voted TWICE against this, and Starmer is going ahead anyway. THAT is anti-democratic bullsh**. They will use this law to track you, they will use this law to control you, and they will use this law to punish you if they don't like what you do, even if it's legal. And your data? Say bye bye to that. It'll be on the darkweb in weeks. I'm not some rando online. I've been an IT professional for 40 years, many of it in security. I know exactly what this means and what will happen to your data. I do not consent and I will not comply.

      "...but it may not be Microsoft's fault" seems like a reasonable way to tease what is going on without leaving the user with a false impression that an update is the problem. A title isn't a summery, it is meant to entice the user to read the article. It should not contain a misleading premise; which this title does not. You could maybe complain that the first paragraph should have included that detail. The writing style popularized over 100 years ago in newspapers will cover the most important information as soon as possible with details and nuance added later; the idea being that with each new paragraph you have less of the reader's focus.
    • Samsung Galaxy XR arrives in the UK with new AI and enterprise features

      By Fiza Ali · Posted

      Samsung Galaxy XR arrives in the UK with new AI and enterprise features by Fiza Ali Samsung is bringing its Galaxy XR headset to the UK several months after the device made its debut as the first headset built on Google's Android XR platform. The headset was first teased in late 2024 alongside Google's introduction of Android XR before making its commercial debut in 2025. Developed in collaboration with Google and Qualcomm, Galaxy XR combines mixed reality experiences with Gemini-powered AI features, allowing users to interact with digital content using voice, gestures, and visual inputs. While the hardware itself remains largely unchanged from the version Samsung unveiled last year, the company is using the UK launch to spotlight several software enhancements that have arrived through recent updates. Among the most notable additions is deeper integration with Google's ecosystem. Galaxy XR users can explore destinations through Google Maps' Immersive View, receiving AI-powered recommendations and contextual information from Gemini while navigating virtual environments. Furthermore, entertainment experiences have also expanded; users can watch 180-degree and 360-degree videos on YouTube, browse spatial content converted into 3D, and ask Gemini questions about on-screen content without interrupting playback. Samsung is also highlighting mixed-reality features such as Circle to Search, which allows users to identify real-world objects through hand gestures while using the headset's video pass-through mode. Another feature automatically converts photos and videos into spatial 3D experiences. Moreover, the headset now also supports Android Enterprise, allowing organisations to manage deployments using existing Android management tools. Annika Bizon, Vice President, Product and Marketing, Mobile Experience, Samsung UK & Ireland, talked about the device, stating: The headset is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 platform and features dual 4K Micro-OLED displays. The tech giant says that users can expect up to 2.5 hours of battery life. Samsung also confirmed that Galaxy XR will continue receiving software and security updates as the company works alongside Google and Qualcomm to expand the Android XR ecosystem. Galaxy XR is now available for pre-order and will go on sale on 8 July. Customers interested in trying the headset before launch can visit Samsung KX in London and selected Samsung Experience Stores from 17 June. Finally, the company will also host a livestream on 19 June showcasing the headset's capabilities and answering questions from prospective customers.
