Chapter Seven
THE CALM BEFORE
I just don’t need to hear you say it. I can’t hear you say it.
Rick’s group is reunited again and they remained in the prison.
However, Woodbury’s people is out there, preparing themselves for an invasion to the prison.
This is only the calm before…
…the storming arrival of the dwellers of Woodbury to the prison.
It’s not a matter of “if” but a disturbing certainity of “when”.
Rick’s group is doing their best to keep on with their existence along with doing their best to be prepared for the unavoidable confrontation.
And certainly this is war, and sadly, in a war, there are casualties…
…and these will be high costly and too dearly casualties.
And Woodbury's people may be more prepared that anyone can imagine!
We need to prepare for a possible attack on the prison... plenty of action, but also quieter moments than in the previous two volumes. Remember Allen and his leg? Yes, well...The quiet moments are well done. Grown ups having realistic relationships, as far as that is possible during the Zombie apocalypse. Its the small moments...Feels a little like a bridge story, waiting for that attack to come. Fitting title in that respect. Quite the cliffhanger at the end, although it was not unexpected.
I know that the title is pretty indicative of the pace of this volume, but I found myself really appreciating the lull in all of the extreme violence. Something in the relentless killing and torture scenes in the last few volumes has begun to wear a little thin, and I usually find myself numb to all the death and pain by the end, which is unusual for me.The Calm Before sort of re-introduced me to the characters I had stopped caring about, and for this reason certain moments (view spoiler)[ like
Oooooh, that ending --- just like the show. So intense and badass.

This was a simply set up. Nothing more, nothing less. These issues exist to usher in the conclusion of the first compendium. Its filler material, appropriate filler material, though its still a little dull. Its a foreshadowing of the climax. The group arm themselves and set up the prisons defences. An attack in the next volume is only appropriate. But this was a little dry. Carols fate was aloes quite random. I mean we all knew it was coming. Shes been degrading for a while, but to throw herselfWe need to prepare for a possible attack on the prison... plenty of action, but also quieter moments than in the previous two volumes.
