According to Action-Figure.com, CS Moore Studio have picked up the rights to Image Comics’ The Walking Dead series, paving the way for statues and other licensed items based on the highly acclaimed comic book.
First out of the gate will be a dramatic statue of series hero Rick Grimes fighting off the undead fleshbags from the hood of a muscle car, which will exhibit the detail and quality that the CS Moore Studio has become known by (the entire piece, not just the car).
“Working with [series creator] Robert Kirkman is just terrific,” says CS Moore Studio President Clayburn Moore. “He’s had some great ideas for this first piece, and Charlie Adlard has drawn up a fantastic sketch based on our design. We think Walking Dead fans will love it.” Likewise, Kirkman is ecstatic to be apart of the deal. “Clayburn Moore is at the top of his game. I couldn’t be more thrilled to have him lending his enormous talents to The Walking Dead property. From what I’ve seen on Charlie’s design and Clay’s previous work, I can tell this statue is going to be AMAZING.”
