Robert Kirkman
2,562 books7,045 followersRobert Kirkman is an American comic book writer best known for his work on The Walking Dead, Invincible for Image Comics, as well as Ultimate X-Men and Marvel Zombies for Marvel Comics. He has also collaborated with Image Comics co-founder Todd McFarlane on the series Haunt.

Robert Kirkman's first comic books were self-published under his own Funk-o-Tron label. Along with childhood friend Tony Moore, Kirkman created Battle Pope which was published in late 2001. Battle Pope ran for over 2 years along with other Funk-o-Tron published books such as InkPunks and Double Take.
In July of 2002, Robert's first work for another company began, with a 4-part SuperPatriot series for Image, along with Battle Pope backup story artist Cory Walker. Robert's creator-owned projects followed shortly thereafter, including Tech Jacket, Invincible and Walking Dead.

Oh Outcast, if I knew that it is this good before, I wouldn't had second thoughts reading it. This has been in my pile of comics all these years!
Our protagonists are facing their demons, literally and figuratively as they gear up for a fight they have doubts they would win. Kirkman really knows how to craft an effective horror story, where the characters are not just one-dimensional humans who'd wreck all evil, but fragile and vulnerable who figgt because they have to.

Our first group of stories comes to a very startling conclusion, setting the stage for what is to come.
The dream team has done it again. Another fantastic issue, the best one so far in my humble opinion! Everything is greatly balanced with the rest of the story. In this sixth issue, to conclude volume one of the graphic novel, several questions are answered but many more are added and unanswered.
The man in the shadows comes into view of Kyle and Reverend Anderson while they are talking, finally not being a creepy eyed stalker from the trees. The Reverend recognizes him and is taken about by how he feels. Again, the matter of the Reverend's faith throughout this issue is in question. He realizes probably for the first time, that he has failed those he has tried to help, and if the cover is any indication to you that things do not go his way I don't know what will. Even though the Reverend maybe something we should worry about, I am more concerned with Kyle. The second half of this issue deals strictly with Kyle facing the room with which he beat his mother and released her from the demon or thing that possessed her.
I really do enjoy the flash backs used here. It's not a simply flash back story line, but an overlay. Here is Kyle presently, here is little Kyle from the past. Its remarkable in the sense by using these forms of flash backs and present frames what is going on in Kyle's head and how its transforming him. In the end I think Kyle is finally fully ready to move forward in this quest of figuring out whats been following him his whole life.
I am really looking forward to the next issue, which should be coming up soon in March 2015 and I can't wait to get my hands on it and see what Robert Kirkman has in store for us with this great story!
I recommend this as always to fans of any of this great and powerful team of story writers and artists, as well as any fans who enjoy Stephen King, The Exorcist movie and horror/thrillers whether they be in book or movie. I sure I could keep mentioning things that these comics remind me of to try and get you to go out and buy them but it still wouldn't do these comics justice. I simply can't express how fast I blazed through these comics and went back for more. I loved them so much in fact I actually now own the graphic novel as well and will be reviewing that as well when time allows.

I'm glad the Reverend doesn't trust Sidney. The guy is creepy as hell and shouldn't be trusted. Go with that feeling Rev. I bet he did hear, and you both better watch your asses.
I'm glad that they're going back to check on Mildred. And hopefully they can get rid of that thing inside of her like they did for that kid a few issues back.
I bet that the woman, Mildred still has that thing inside of her. Otherwise, I don't think she'd be such a jerk to Kyle. Okay, so based on "Mildred's" reaction, I'm going to say she's still got that thing inside her.
Aww, poor Reverend. I can understand why he's having a breakdown, but it doesn't do him or anyone else any good to show how bad he feels. Instead of feeling bad, the Reverend should just come up with a plan with Kyle to help these people.
I agree with the Reverend that he needs to do research and that Kyle talking to the thing inside of Mildred won't help. However, I think they also need to figure out how many more people are affected by this.
Oh shit, one of those demons or whatever, was in the Reverend's house. I hope that it didn't kill anyone nearby. And oh crap, the demon threatening the Reverend. Ew. I don't care for that crazy mark at all.
Kyle needs to stop letting the memories distract him. I know that he had a really crappy childhood and that his mother was possessed by a demon that tried to kill him.
But he knows what's going on now and needs to use his abilities to kick those demons asses. I'm glad that Kyle confronted the room and has started to confront his memories.

Kirkman knows cliffhangers. He is the Shakespeare of cliffhangers. I would say that one could waste a weekend going deeper into this work, but that would not be a waste. It would be time well spent. And the often subtle artwork of Azaceta coupled with Breitweiser’s coloring bring true life to this story.
This issue closes where No. 1 begins. Kyle faces his own story, but with renewed purpose.
But we’re left with the questions of Reverend Anderson’s fate.

Sidney es el diablo? Qué carajos es?
Qué pasará con el reverendo Anderson?
Agghhhh, demasiadas incógnitas!!
Por otro lado, que bueno que Kyle está enfrentando sus miedos.
