It's tough to categorize that because the comic and tv show diverged so much, so early. There are characters in the comics who aren't on the show and vice versa, and there are storylines in one and not the other.
The end of the second chapter in the Compendium (12 issues of the comic, and 1/4 of the way through the Compendium) sees the group recently having left the farm and discovering the prison, just as season 2 of the series ended. However, the details between the group leaving Atlanta and discovering the prison are very different.
Also, the woman with the sword doesn't show up until the beginning of Chapter 4 in the comics, so there are going to be significant differences going forward as well.
