Retailers get another chance to reap the sales benefits of a pop-culture, comics-driven phonemenon as season 2 of AMC-TV's The Walking Dead Series premieres on Sunday, October 16, with a special 90-minute episode.
To prep customers for the new slate of episodes, AMC will provide a special 27" x 40" one-sheet poster to all Diamond retailers, advertising the show and your store as an "Official Retailer of The Walking Dead." A limited supply of additional posters is available for reorder on a first come, first served basis, for those retialers who have additional window opportunities.
In addition, every retailer will also receive a free bundle of 25 bookmarks promoting AMC's The Walking Dead Season 2 on one side, with the Abrams' The Walking Dead Chronicles SC (JUL111359F) on the other side.
