In the second half of season six of "The Walking Dead," Rick Grimes and his band of survivors discover a larger world beyond what they understood it to be. In this new reality, there are new dangers, new opportunities, and new complexities to face. To claim their place in this newfound landscape, the group must become the threat themselves, as terrifying as any of the adversaries they've encountered.

Based on the comic book series written by Robert Kirkman and published by Image Comics, "The Walking Dead" reigns as television's most watched drama for Adults 18-49. "The Walking Dead" tells the story of the months and years that follow after a zombie apocalypse, and follows a group of survivors, led by police officer Rick Grimes, who travel in search of a safe and secure home. The series is executive produced by Scott M. Gimple, Robert Kirkman, Gale Anne Hurd, David Alpert, Greg Nicotero and Tom Luse.

Rounding out the highly anticipated Sunday night lineup is the mid-season premiere of "Comic Book Men" season five on Sunday, February 14 at Midnight ET/PT. On the all-new episode, "Stan Saves!" Stan Lee drops by the Stash and helps the guys with a customer experiencing a comic's crisis. A customer buys a classic issue of Fantastic Four.

In its fifth season, AMC's popular unscripted series "Comic Book Men" takes another dive into geekdom by following the antics in and around master fanboy Kevin Smith's New Jersey comic shop, Jay and Silent Bob's Secret Stash. Leading the fearless team behind the shop's counter are Walt, Mike, Bryan and Ming, who geek out over mind-blowing pop culture artifacts and the legends behind them.

Mike decides it's for the best to sever his affiliation with an unrestrained associate. Critics are already raving about season two, including Brian Lowry of Variety who said, "The story gained momentum as its first season progressed, and based on these opening chapters, there's reason to believe that will be the case again."

From "Breaking Bad" creator Vince Gilligan and "Breaking Bad" writer Peter Gould, "Better Call Saul" focuses on the evolution of the popular "Breaking Bad" character Saul Goodman, portrayed by Bob Odenkirk, before he ever became Walter White's lawyer.
