The introduction argues that \n                    \n                    \u003ci\u003eThe Walking Dead \u003c\/i\u003e\n                                        reflects cultural anxiety over threats to the family. Chapter 1 examines the destructive competition created by heteronormativity, such as the conflict between Rick and Shane. Chapter 2 focuses on the actual or attempted participation of characters such as Carol and Negan in queer relationships.
