The Secret Headquarters releases “The Walking Dead” Artwork


The Secret Headquarters (SHQ), the cult favorite source for graphic novels, is pleased to announce the creation of special limited-edition artwork to celebrate the October 31st premiere of The Walking Dead, an AMC original series based on the comic series by Robert Kirkman.

The four prints were designed by Jordan Crane and hand-printed by Jordan Rae; each was illustrated by a different accomplished artist (Lisa Hanawalt, Jon Vermilyea, Johnny Ryan and Jordan Crane). Inspired by shooting range targets, the prints pay homage to the acclaimed comic series. Available individually or as a set of four, the archival-quality prints measure 23 x 35 inches on acid-free 70lb. paper. Each print is limited to a run of 100 copies and will be signed by both the artist and Kirkman; single prints are $40 and the set of four is $150.

Dave Pifer, owner of The Secret Headquarters, says “We’re big fans of The Walking Dead comics, and we’re thrilled to be able to mix it up with the varied style of these rad artists.”

Robert Kirkman, creator and writer of The Walking Dead, says “I’m astounded by the talent involved and couldn’t be happier with how this turned out. I think people are going to love these prints and I hope it brings people into The Secret Headquarters in droves because it’s a great store.”

The prints are currently available for purchase as sets of four; individual prints will be available for purchase as of October 29th, either at The Secret Headquarters (3817 W. Sunset Blvd., Los Angeles / 323.666.2228) or via walkingdeadprints.com.
