The beauty of basing one's show in the Apocalypse is that, quite literally, it never has to end.

Granted, the Apocalypse has always been a never-ending business (ironic, no?), but the folks behind AMC's juggernaut of an end times franchise The Walking Dead have learned the lesson it took Star Trek's showrunners a decade or two to learn: evolve.  It isn't just enough to go back to the well and another iteration: you have to give the fans something a bit different if you want them to continue tuning in season after season.  AMC promised something different with Fear The Walking Dead, but after a few seasons it's pretty much morphed back into the original (in my humble opinion).  The Walking Dead: World Beyond looked to finally deliver something different by putting its focus somewhere down the road with the future in the hands of some youngsters who've only known the world as its been destroyed.

Its first season aired on the network, and now word comes of the program's home video release.  Details are provided below, and SciFiHistory.Net always encourages folks to invest, invest, invest in genre properties so that, hopefully, we'll always get more!

As always, thanks for reading ... and live long and prosper!

The sisters' scientist father conducts research over one-thousand miles away in a research facility run by the Civic Republic, an ally of Omaha, but one that does not reveal its location to outsiders. When the sisters receive a message that their father might be in a danger, they defy their own community's rules and enlist their friends Elton (Cantu) and Silas (Cumpston) to embark on a cross-country quest to save him. Leaving their sheltered upbringing behind, these teenagers learn how to fight threats both living and dead as they travel through a beautiful but decaying and dangerous world.
