The day before AMC released new production photos from the set of the second season of The Walking Dead series. Another bonus was their reveal of the Comic-Con exclusive poster for the show painted by comic book illustrator and cover artist extraordinaire Tim Bradstreet. Today was the big panel for the show’s season 2 at San Diego Comic-Con. Robert Kirkman was in attendance as was showrunner Frank Darabont and producer Gale Anne Hurd. The cast was also in attendance. Questions about their initial experience on the truncated first season were asked and answered. But the one thing people wanted to see the panel showed quite early and again as the panel concluded.
The Walking Dead season 2 has been given a definitely premiere date of October 16, 2011 just in time for AMC’s Fear Fest leading up to Halloween. It was the unveiling of the new season’s trailer which got the audience cheering loudly and from reactions to the trailer one thing is set to be sure and that’s this season looks to be even more bleak and with more forward momentum than the first season.
The show is less than 3 months away and it cannot come any sooner.
Through the Shattered Lens 
Hmm. They showed a few scenes surrounded by brick walls. Is that the same location of the Vatos ‘gang’?
While season one was good, I’m hoping two to be great. Different directors mucked up the mental waters, and potentially threw off the actors as well. (How many times is the blonde going to point a gun at Rick before she gets taken out, for crying out loud? And how many times are we going to have to watch them take a shower? One more time and it’ll be a drinking game before November.) While I’m hopeful for another goodin’, I heard the ‘theme’ was that the real threat will be the actual survivors and not the zombies. Since Frank didn’t do that already in The Fog, with less-than positive results in my opinion.
But hey, we all saw the horse die in episode one. Who am I to judge him beating it to undeath? 😛

Nope, they leave Atlanta behind and go on the road for this season.
