"The Walking Dead" General Stuff & Thaaaangs Thread - - - - Part 13

I'm not surprised. Kinda figured she'd leave when she didn't sign on with Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride.

 

A handful is what like 3 episodes?

Go on gurl. Film some more MCU films and get roles in other films. Can probably nab an indie role or 2.

And it would be great to see if they might carry her character (Okoye) over on a Disney series too.

 

I can totally see them doing this; the private life of the Dora Milage, Wakandan politics, and what the Dora Milage get up to in their free time.

 

New ‘Walking Dead’ Spinoff In The Works, AMC Executives Confirm

 

Another spin-off confirmed for 2020.

"Huzzah!", said no one

 

So the plan is to make mini-series for all our faves and then have one big event where they all meet up and come together again? Where have I seen this?

 

I still don't get why they wouldn't consider setting this overseas. Must we really see another version of the same series?

I'd have loved seeing it set in China or the UK or something else. Can easily have half the cast be American and the other half international cast. It'd be different at least.

 

FInally caught up with last season, it was better than I thought it would be once Rick left, but his absence is still leaving a big hole in things

 

I was hoping to see Thomas Payne at Awesome Con last weekend, but he had to cancel his panel on Sunday. I was absolutely heartbroken. Apparently he had a family emergency.

 

So since this is about general stuff and not just the show, I guess it's worth pointing out that Rick was shot pretty close to his heart in the recent issue of the comic. Now, like Andrea, we see if he pulls through or not.

 

I guess we'll see if Maggie returns in Season 10...

 

I hope so... and they better not announce it to the world if it happens. (Like they did with Andrew leaving) I want to be surprised so I might be staying away from threads like this one

 

So uh... TWD issue #192 was kind of a big one.

 

I anticipated and I'm still shocked.

 

Here's another shocker for you: apparently this week's issue is the final issue of The Walking Dead.

THE WALKING DEAD to End With This Week's #193 - Report

 

If its true, props for the fake solicits.

 

Kirkman said he planned on doing at least 300 issues, but would end it earlier if he wasn't having as much fun writing it. People seemed to get 300 stuck in their heads and it took it as a certainty. The last issue was such a big change to the story that the end seemed closer than ever. I didn't expect it to be now.

It's interesting that Kirkman launched a surprise new book last July and now he's ending one...

 

Seems weird to end on 193.just a weird number. Might as well have gone to a clean 200

 

Even though I fell pretty behind on the books, I'm so so bummed to hear this news. With the decline of most other aspects of the Walking Dead franchise (the lowering quality of the TV series and especially Fear TWD, losing main cast members on the shows, the death of Telltale Games), the comic just felt like the one invincible thing that would always be there.

Despite what Kirkman said, something about the suddenness of everything feels a little fishy to me. Doesn't feel like this was planned as far back as he's seeming to suggest. But if this is truly it, I'm definitely grateful for all the great comic books we've had. Hopefully we can get a continuation or spin-off of some sort, I need more Negan in my life.

 

Yeah something is weird to me too. Like I'm just weird but ending on 193 just seems so random with 200 right there. And then it was all of the sudden

 

I think it is easier for the massive compendiums, which the first three had 48 issues. One issue isn't going to affect the last one much. 7 might.

 

New ‘Walking Dead’ Series Casts Three Lead Roles (EXCLUSIVE)

I'm going to assume one of the female protagonists is Princess- a fairly recent character who some of the survivors from Alexandria met while on their way to meet up with another community.
