Not sure if I’ll be happy if they don’t make it, but we may be looking at a last stand arc here.
Well, someone’s got to make it. Unless Kirkman completely scraps everyone and focuses on another fringe group.
But, let’s start letting go a little bit from our favorite characters because I expect a lot of the to die.
R.I.P.
Glenn
Andrea
Carl
There, I did it.
Well, let’s review what we think we know:
The cover for #77 has someone looking in the window as Maggie gets dressed/undressed (titled: Those We Left Behind). Image HERE.
The cover for #78 has Andrea, the spotter, making out with someone in the belltower near (based on the shadows) sunset. This lends to the idea that, as both Andrea and Abe have both mentioned, spotting anything in the dark up there is useless and, thus, the wall failure / invasion could occur at night while the spotter is … otherwise occupied. Image HERE.
Then, the cover for #79 has Glenn and Heath (his buddy from the runs into the city) with the title on the cover surrounded by a horde (“Surrounded”). Image HERE.
So, I’m guessing that the horde that they just escaped in D.C. follows Glenn and his buddy back to the community. Once there, there’s a section of the wall that fails (probably in the area they were working on expanding a few issues back) and the wall that used to keep the zombies out now is keeping the population of the community in …
As for death predictions?
Glenn. Gabriel (the reverend). Eugene. Heath. Scott. Douglas.
You’re probably dead on my friend
It’s a crisis type recon
Well in the preview of 77, it looks like Scott died, and i can wait for the “no way out” arc.
I agree with Jacin B., and agree that Glenn will probably die. In one of the more recent spoilers Douglas is smiling, walking with a bunch of zombie hands behind him. Makes me think he probably goes insane or commits suicide (maybe both) by letting the zombies take him. I also think Davidson is not really dead, and instead will come back in some way.
