i'm not going to read it so can you spoil it

Novel spoiler: its a retarded "only in a novel" twist where the protagonist who everyone assumes is the governor "dies" at the end but it turns out its his older brother who's a secondary character in the novel IS the real governor who then takes his brother's name.

The wiki has the full plot summary if you want to get the gist of it.

#98 and while me following this relies on this thread I went ahead and checked the preview pages on Conixology and welp :stare:

Comixology has a half off sale on all Walking Dead including all 3 omnibus which cover 1-99 so $81 for 3 omnibuses or $80 for 16 volumes (which cover 1-96). Then wait for volume 17 which should cover all of something to fear?

Neegan seems like a cool dude. Sucks about Glenn but he hasn't been doing anything lately so that's about the safest death we could have gotten and not really as strong as say Andrea, Carl, or even Rick himself would have been. I'm actually disappointed, I was really expecting a real game changer as far as characters and story but nope, we're still stuck with Rick and crew unless 101 begins with Andrea and everyone else back in town getting killed.

The series will end with an adult Carl (and Sophia) as leaders of whatever is left of civilization. He keeps a zombiefied Rick around as an example of everything that was wrong with "surviving".

He's also stone cold badass and has a wolf for a pet because why not.

Neegan won't hold Carl hostage because he knows better. The kid is a cold hearted badass and Neegan respecs that. He'll probably try a Hook and have Carl turn on his weak dad.

I like how Negan is treating Carl. I can't tell if he's mocking him or is genuinely impressed by him. Even his "poo poo, my bad" after the wound scene felt genuine. But yeah the last 2 comics have done a hell of a lot to make up with the story and I'm curious as to where things will go from here.

Also, guess we know how that one dude got burnt.

I'm surprised that there haven't been any posts here about the tiger. :catstare:

Ricky's reaction summed it up pretty good. The more insane of a direction they're taking the more interest in it I'm gaining.

But seriously, everything is coming off the rails.

Negan would think it was hilarious.

Negan is so loving fun to read. Like he's completely aware of the hosed up situation he's in and he loving loves it.

Him calling out for Carl then going "poo poo, they're really not pushing the kid over are they? gently caress" was hilarious.

I was trying to explain Negan to a friend who watches the show, and he was like "I hope they get Eli Roth" and I couldn't disagree.

Oh that would be awesome.

Well there goes any interest I still had.

Holy poo poo, I cannot believe they time jumped. Any clue to how long it has been since 126? Also, where the gently caress is Michonne?

2 years.

The stupidest thing this book can do is become Crossed so that's what I'm expecting.

Just caught up with issue 137 after bingeing the whole series over the last few weeks.

I don't know what to do with myself now.

Binge on a good comic book.

Might I ask for a brief spoiler summary? sounds interesting.

To add a little more detail:

The whisperers have a HUGE herd under their "control". Their leader tells Rick to gently caress off past their border and to never return or else they'll unleash the herd on Rick's town/land. Also says that Rick will know what their border is. As they're leaving they see a line of sticks with heads on them (those listed above).


Someone mentioned that this book marks the end for the next compendium which "gave away" something big happening given the previous two compendium ends (Lori and Glen).

I fully expect the next issue to open with a shot or someone yelling Rick's name and everyone scrambling towards it only to find Negan chilling on a bench with the dead kid by him and Negan's just smugly using the opportunity to call Rick out on poo poo. Wouldn't be the first time someone goes behind Rick's back to Negan.
