this is kinda dumb. I mean, what's this supposed to even be? It's not a preview or a teaser. anyway, one more day to hopefully get more answers.......................... lots more 'just talking'. Wouldn't call it 'boring' necessarily, but this was a total filler issue, leaving things set for 132. We have a group looking for KEN and they just found a bunch of zombies (which they'll likely dispatch of quickly, but we still don't know much about KEN). Andrea got jumped by MAGNA and her team and she is demanding answers (which we'll likely find out next month).
I think CARL jumped the gun in earlier issues when he found out there was another apprentice. But, I'm glad he finally got what he wanted. Keep him out of trouble. I think it's cool that Sophia is kickin' ass. Dumb that there would be ANY gangs (even teenage gangs). These kids obviously forget what the apocalypse is all about. Those kids should be put on patrol duty for humble themselves. (I have a particularly strong distaste for bullying).
Decent issue over all...but I'd give it a 6\10. I'll give it a bonus .5 in hopes that next month will be great with zombie fights (in the barn), and hopes that whatever Magna has in for Andrea is good. I mean, Magna is really gonna hafta come up some with something creative 'cause Andrea is likely gonna kick them out or jail them all for jumping her.
final score 6.5/10

Solid issue. I love learning more about life in the communities since the time jump. The talking zombie issue seems like it might be a slow-burn issue -I'm ok with that. A little bit about new character Dante. All this talk about fairs and how happy everybody is, then WHAT HAPPENED TO MICHONNE. Kirkman dropped a nice heavy bomb on us in all the good feels talk. We find out that Team Magna ain't entirely on board with the new program. So we got 3 compelling (imho) cliffhangers out of this very slow issue. I enjoyed every minute of it.
One small complaint (we all already made this one) Why isn't anyone keeping an eye on Team Magna while Rick is gone. They shouldn't have even had the opportunity to ambush Andrea like that.
Maybe I'm just a paranoid guy, but I would've been shadowing new people, even if not assigned to. I HAVE to think someone has been, and will interrupt Team Magna's little interrogation.

Yeah that was a solid issue, Books taking that uphill stride again.

at least we have an idea about 134. I'm guessing the group dispatches the zombies in the barn and just before the final swing, the one zombie begs for mercy or som'n. But why is there only one guy? (are the other guys off camera?) or did only one guy survive the barn attack?

Everyone is saying the issues are getting better. Perhaps I should buy the issues again
