    Surprisingly, there is enough great storytelling here not only to keep that door open, but actually to inspire a little hope that the next era of “The Walking Dead” might be its best since the flagship’s early days.

    If the future of the series is anything like this first season of Dead City, with its recentering of a core group of characters and the strongest story that The Walking Dead has had in years, then there may just be some life to be found in this dead world.

    For an undead adventure to the isle of Manhattan, Dead City is a trip worth taking for The Walking Dead fans, and kicks off an exciting—if still a bit too familiar—new chapter for our favorite survivors.

    “Dead City” isn’t perfect, but after “The Walking Dead: World Beyond,” “Tales of the Walking Dead” and even the long-running “Fear the Walking Dead,” this first of several planned spinoffs following the series finale offers the best reason to reenter this post-apocalyptic world in years.
