- Actors that have played zombies will be avaliable for autographs.
As fans eagerly await the second half of this season's The Walking Dead on AMC, which premiers on Feb. 12, zombie-obsessed fans can get their blood-thirsty fix sooner at the Atlanta Comic Convention.
Since 1994, the Atlanta Comic Convention has been connecting fans with artists, actors, and professionals in the comic industry. This year, the convention will feature 3 actors who all stared as zombies in multiple episodes and were featured in print ads for The Walking Dead.
Actors Rodney Hall, Ashleigh Jo Sizemore and Dan Riker, who thankfully don't crave human flesh in real life, will be at the convention for an autograph signing session. While the actors will be charging a fee for photos, convention visitors are welcome to bring any show memorabilia (posters, t-shirts, comics etc.) for the actors to autograph for free.

Additionally, Jason Pearson, an artist for comics like X-Men, Spiderman and Batman among others, will be available to sign comics. Pearson, who calls Atlanta his home, has been in the comic industry for more than 20 years.
The Atlanta Comic Convention will be held at the Marriott Hotel Century Center on Feb. 5, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is $5, but there is a link for a two dollars off admission coupon on the convention's website, look for the spinning dollar icon on the right side of the web page here.
