Where To Go From Here

Robert Kirkman Was Planning On Adding Aliens To "The Walking Dead".

Well, not exactly.

But that's what he felt he needed to tell Image comics when it became obvious to him that they were going to pass on his zombie comic idea. They felt that a simple zombie apocalypse and tales of a hero trying to survive just wasn't strong enough to keep readers coming back. They needed something more.

So Kirkman told him that the zombies were a tool used by aliens as a way of softening up Earth's inhabitants before they invaded.

Except, he had no such plan to have aliens come to Earth. And for that we thank you!

Read a recap of the panel discussion here.
