The group travelling to Ohio arrives in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, which at this point seems like a ghost town. They settle down for the night around the camp fire, and while the females of the group are talking, Siddiq confesses to Eugene that Rosita loved him. Eugene stares in anger.In the midst of releasing the planned final season of The Walking Dead series during 2018, Telltale Games went into bankruptcy, laying off the bulk of the staff and cancelling all projects, including the last two episodes of The Walking Dead. By this point, Kirkman had established Skybound Entertainment and had been eyeing a gaming division. He took the opportunity to secure the rights of Telltale's The Walking Dead properties, and temporarily hired most of the staff that were working on the game so that the series could be finished as well as to close out Clementine's story, which he felt needed to be done.

[49] The Walking Dead: All Out War [ edit ] But I didn't like the last issue with the giant time-skip. That ruins a bit the magic. Seeing everyone old, doing their things, the walkers becoming circus animals, Maggie's son becoming a spoiled brat, and Carl's trial were pretty uninteresting. I didn't care about that, why show me? Eugene leads a group on a new mission to Ohio, where they encounter a new community unlike anything they have seen before. This chapter is the epic beginning of the mega popular franchise of The Walking Dead that first was comic books, then expanded to a TV series and now there are even prose novels.

However, post-time jump, Maggie seems inexplicably cold and distant towards Sophia, not even asking about her granddaughter, even though several other characters did. She defends her son Herschel passionately, even though he’s grown up into a monster that Glenn would be greatly disappointed in. The ultimate take away from these observations is that for some reason (that KIrkman didn’t feel was important to elaborate on), Maggie turned into a horrible and diluted person over the course of the twenty or so years we skip. On the front lines, Negan complains about not having any weapons and teases Dwight about Sherry. Laura approaches and warns that a large group of Whisperers are headed their way, and Dwight wonders why Gabriel did not signal. Mercer attempts to assuage the group's frustration by explaining that even though the community has a few bad people, the sheer size of it means you don't see these people often. He further explains that they all know that worse could be happening than being slapped, but Michonne interjects that this doesn't make it right. Mercer agrees, and cites this example to Siddiq as one of the reasons that the soldiers may need to "blow off steam". Siddiq uneasily agrees. Andreeva, Nellie (August 12, 2009).

The real monsters are humans, and we can see that in every arc of the series. Schwartz, Terri (July 2, 2019). "The Walking Dead Comic to End with Issue #193: Read Robert Kirkman's Letter to Fans".
