Walking Dead #100 out today (SPOILERS INSIDE)

[Gman5852]

I feel like this needs to be done.




Strategic words to prevent the text being shown if someone highlights it in the view thread listings.







WHY DID IT HAVE TO BE GLENN WHY? I want to say he can survive that and wind up like Carl who looks rather deformed with half a head, but there is no why Glenn is still alive after that.:(

[Tjibbbe]

So issue number 100 came out today. Anyone care to share what they thought?

Holy hell Glenn's gone. I mean, the guy hasn't really been doing anything for quite a while now, but still. Literally Rick's oldest friend in the series, not counting Carl. I was actually expecting Carl to die this issue, but perhaps that would screw the rest of the series up too much. Really interesting to see where they're going from this. It will certainly mean the following issues are going to feel a lot less secure.

Also, I was surprised by Kirkman's comment in the letters column that the series hasn't even reached it's half-point yet. I know the series is supposed to be never-ending, but I can't really imagine there being enough material to mine for another ten years. Pretty excited about the following few issues, though.

Also, some of the drawings in this issue... Man. I know Adlard isn't afraid to go into detail when he needs to, but it's never been as bad (good bad, of course) as this issue.

God. I'm getting my issue on Friday because of the Walking Dead escape, but I can't deny spoilers on the internet. (Tony Moore, come back!)

We need to merge with the other issue 100 threads. I'm getting my copy on friday, but I could not resist the spoilers. I really thought Rick was gone for good in this issue.

I don't understand why Kirkman could have killed off other characters. Rosita, Eugene, even Sophia. Glenn and Rick go back a long while. Screw you, Negan.

[Gman5852]

I don't understand why Kirkman could have killed off other characters. Rosita, Eugene, even Sophia. Glenn and Rick go back a long while. Screw you, Negan.

Very simple. No one is safe. He can't simply spare someone for fan service/good relations with Rick. Besides that, Glenn is probably the most popular character from the comics(think about why Telltale chose him to be cameo'd) and Kirkman wanted 100 to be a rememberable one. What better way than killing off THE most popular character in the franchise? And in the most gruesome way possible? In front of his pregnant wife and 8 year old daughter?

[franapbsilva]

I'm still shocked... :eek: Completly gross. Holly shit, I hate Negan now, he killed Glenn like if it was some kind of joke to him!!! I want to see Rick "Lucilling" that son of a bitch!!!!

[Zeruis]

Did anybody ever expect that Lucille was going to be a human, like a hero to Rick's group? Lucille did kill Glenn...

[franapbsilva]

Did anybody ever expect that Lucille was going to be a human, like a hero to Rick's group? Lucille did kill Glenn...

I thougt Lucille was human. But not good, I thougt he was from Negan's group, and that would kill someone, or try (At least was rigth about that).

[AppleWorm]

well Kirkman did it.... 100 will be memorable and if I ever meet anyone in the world named Negan ....... God help them........ lol but seriously I thought 100 was way to short and the artwork was very detailed even for Charlie... superb!!!

[Zeruis]

Glenn's death scene was more gut-wrenching than Michonne mutilating the Governor. This is saying a lot.

agree!!!! it was bad... maybe thats because I hated the Gov....either way issue 101 is too long away...

[8Bit_System]

R.I.P. Glenn... you didn't deserve to go that way... http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-basic/rip.gif

[Umbral]

I think I'm done with the comic, Kirkman will milk this for a year and I just don't have the patience to wait for resolution. (At least it's not as bad as GRRM and A Dance With Dragons - that's more a question of who will die first: him or me?)

[Zeruis]

Rick and his group better kill off all the Saviors. After what Negan did to Glenn, I'm hoping for nothing else.

[Greglead]

RIP my Friend. I got the issue on comixology, and read it around 1:00PM EST. it is now 4:06PM, and my jaw is still on the floor. i keep reading it over and over, hoping that the pages will change, or I will see something in the artwork, or the wording that could give me hope that he will be alive, just really fucked up like when a 1/3 of Carl's face was blown off. Stlll praying, but I deep down I know he is gone. RIP Issue #2-100

[Greglead]

i got my issue this afternoon on Comixology, then picking up a copy that will never be opened this weekend. Unless it's to get Kirkman to sign it, or TWD cast members. I also got the torrent with my CDisplay reader. I still can't pick my jaw up off the floor from what I saw hppen.

[Master of Aeons]

Well there goes my second to last favorite character. Carl, you're all I have left.

About the same time that episode 3 of TT's game comes out. We need Rick to become like this again:

Amen to the attachment. If they can get back to the safezone before the attack begins and hold them off long enough to regroup, I'd say Negan is gonna pray that he was the Governor after Rick and crew get through with him.

When was that? If it was the governor, we might want to think differently as Rick and Carl were the only survivors from that.

[walkerbait00]

i must admit i cried when Glenn died i could not believe it. he was my favorite and i am sad that he is gone,I still miss Tyreese i wonder who will be next:( i cant wait till rick kicks the fucking shit out of negan

[Greglead]

When was that? If it was the governor, we might want to think differently as Rick and Carl were the only survivors from that.

That scen is from when they were holed up in the church, and the people who kidnapped and ate Dale's leg were fucking with them. They did in fact learn the hard way that they were "fucking with the wrong people."

[YamiRaziel]

I'm not sure but I feel a bit disappointed. I mean it was okay but he material felt very short and not nearly as epic as the Governor arc. I really liked Glenn but to be honest I think I like him more in the TV show. Lately in the comics, he hasn't really been doing anything.

I expected it to be a little more epic than that. Anyway still a very good issue and now the long wait begins again.

P.S I'm happy that it wasn't Andrea the one to die :)

[Gman5852]

Why does no one know how to use a spoiler tag?

So you clicked on a thread that says "SPOILERS INSIDE" and was shocked to see spoilers?

Yeah, not your brightest move.

Ah. Then that would be much better of an image then.

[Marleysativa]

Fuck Negan in his fucking ass. He needs to die. I was expecting Andrea to be killed to be honest. The Saviors finding the group on the road and Glen being murdered was the last thing I expected. Looking at him scream for Maggie with his skull crushed was gut-wrenching.

Things like this happening in the comics when people talk about sunshine and rainbow endings to this game crack me up. They have no idea what they've gotten themselves into.

[Dark_Lord_of_All]

One thing I know for sure, Rick will murder that son of a b****. And, when he does, I will enjoy every panel of it.
Rest in peace ______, Issues # 2-100.

[Gman5852]

But will he?
Rick didn't even kill the governor, Lilly did. Heck Rick doesn't even know the governor is dead! We don't know what will happen here.

[WingSP117]

Dammit, I've been looking forward to 100 for months now, picked up the issue after work and just finished reading it. Still in shock from what happened, he was one of my favorite characters. Such a disturbing way to go.

hell yes!
negan deserves a painful death!

[Dark_Lord_of_All]

"But will he?
Rick didn't even kill the governor, Lilly did. Heck Rick doesn't even know the governor is dead! We don't know what will happen here."



Agree, Kirkman is unpredictable. Negan's time will come, I just hope it's Rick that ends him. He owes it to _____. The dude saved his life. If not Rick, then, at least, I hope kirkman gives Negan the Michonne on gov treatment. That will satisfy my rage!!!

[Death689God]

The amount of Truth in that statement can not be understated.

[Master of Aeons]

So you clicked on a thread that says "SPOILERS INSIDE" and was shocked to see spoilers?

Yeah, not your brightest move.

I knew what I was getting into. I already read it. Still typing spoilers and spacing something out when there's a tag made for it is pretty pointless.

[YamiRaziel]

Daryl will make a sudden appearance in the comic book and will kill Negan O_O :D
And those of you who said that Lilly killed the Governer - well, yeah, exactly! That's why we love her :P :D

[Master of Aeons]

Maybe that's the difference between the two arcs. In the first one, Rick ran and had to have someone else clean up his mess. Maybe in this one, Rick will emerge the victor.

[bghjkl]

Justice was served with the Governor. Remember what Michonne did to him...

I wish she would have had enough time to finish the job, they'd probably still be still at the prison (though the prison arc was pretty long, the story needed to advance)

I thought it was going to be Rick going this time. I really did. A guy in the comic book store even told me "you're going to hate this issue"

I have no doubts Negan will get his, I'm hoping he is slain by his own bat. "Lucille" or whatever

The hype leading up to the issue was pretty underwhelming. 8 variant covers and only 1 death?

You're forgetting about Abraham.

[Zeruis]

You're forgetting about Abraham.

Oh yeah. I meant in the 100th issue. But in the arc overall, Abraham was one of my favorite characters.

[WingSP117]

Oh yeah. I meant in the 100th issue. But in the arc overall, Abraham was one of my favorite characters.

Yeah, I kind of agree. Once I saw that they were actually attacking Ricks group I figured I was going to see a blood bath of pretty much everyone with him. Strange seeing Carl actually cry again, I thought he had became a sociopath after being shot...again.

I still can't get that damn image of Glenn screaming Maggie's name out with his head bashed in.

[Marleysativa]

Abraham was awesome! While #100 had only one death, it was a fan favorite. I don't think I've met anyone that didn't love Glen. The art was absolutely brutal too.

It's physically amazing how the survivors "hold" on to something even during their apparent deaths. Abraham, with a crossbow in his eye, managed to explain his sentiments about Rosita before he succumbed. Glenn, while getting his brain mushed, still could cry out Maggie's name.

[trd84]

Was Glenn as popular in the comics as he is in the tv show?

[Zeruis]

Was Glenn as popular in the comics as he is in the tv show?

I'd say he's WAY more popular.

[Master of Aeons]

i'd say he's way more popular.

l GAVE YOU A HlNT HERE! :D

[Zombieface]

I can't believe it :( ./tear

You know Rick and Michonne are gonna be gettin them some sweet revenge though!

Maybe Maggie will put on her big girl panties and help!

[Master of Aeons]

OH THERE lT IS

[Matrox Yang]

Glenn and Abraham, two of my favourite characters. They'd better give Jesus a bigger part and make sure he doesn't die or I'll be all out of favourites. Also- The fact that I met Glenn in the Game and so knows what he sounded like made this death even worse for me, anyone else feel the same? I just know that I'll never be able to play episode 1 of the game again without seeing Glenn and thinking- "Gonna get head bashed in."

[caveman]

did anyone watch a while back a small conference with robert kirkman the host of talking dead. and the actors of glenn and daryls characters. and ''glenn'' lit a stink bomb and threw it in the audience.after a bit everyone was like jeeez. robert kirkman mentioned killing his character off (glenn) jokingly or maybe he wasnt idk i watched the conference online and that was the dumbest stunt ever. maybe robert kirkman took it personal. i'd be pissed off myself if i had to sit there for an hour n smell that shit. sorry jus bored waiting for ep.3

Lol, yeah I feel ya! Glenn's been our home-boy through everything! I actually cried a little :( lol. I too will always think of him getting his head bashed in whenever I see or hear of him :( Glenn and Abraham were 2 of my favorites characters as well :( Sucks how they went out! Makes me sad/mad! lol. But Michonne and Rick are still my number 1 favs by far! And Andrea is cool too.. I have a feeling Andrea's gonna be up on the chopping block soon too though lol.

I would also like to see Jesus playing a bigger role. Perhaps he'll be Rick's new right-hand? (No pun intended, kehehe.. okay maybe a little)

[RappinReggie]

R.I.P. Glenn, my brother from an Asian mother:(:(:(:(

Revenge will be sweeeeeet:D:D

Le sigh***

[Zombieface]

But will he?
Rick didn't even kill the governor, Lilly did. Heck Rick doesn't even know the governor is dead! We don't know what will happen here.

Rick didn't kill the Governor because he was leaving him to Michonne so she could get her revenge on him for what he did to her. Unfortunetly she was interupted and had to flee before she could finish the job, and they managed patch him up and save him. Rick never had a chance after that to kill him and wasn't/isn't stupid enough to ever go back there. Plus they're miles and miles away from the prison now.

This is different! I'm sure they'll get their revenge on that fuck! Those people have no idea who their messing with! lol

[Gman5852]

I knew what I was getting into. I already read it. Still typing spoilers and spacing something out when there's a tag made for it is pretty pointless.

It's because spoiler tags don't work when you put your mouse over the thread title and see what's inside the text, I set that up so those that accidentally do that can't read any spoilers.

But that's the thing though. People are acting like Rick will get his sweet revenge, when he never even did on the man who did much worse to him. Rick flat out failed to beat the governor, so what makes you guys think Rick will be victorious here?

hell yeah!!!

[jaybreezy]

I'm in the group that only really knows the tv show but I think after seeing some of the writing, artwork, etc. I might have to start reading. Spoilers don't really bother me so that's not an issue.

[izzywozzy]

Well, remember guys, the TV series as well as the game is just "canon" so, Glenn could very well stay alive in both.

Oh wait, nevermind. I got that backwards.

The comics are easily the "best" Walking Dead lore.

I was late to the party, I watched both seasons of the show in a day and a half, then played Ep.1 of the game and then I was bummed I'd exhausted all the visual media. Then a couple weeks later at barnes and noble I picked up the first "compendium" (issues 1-48) and I had to buy it, then I read it in a week, bought the paperback volumes 9-15 to keep me going. Then I got issues 91-98 on ebay and actually went to a comic book store (felt good to support a local business) for releases of issues 99 and 100.

Moral of the story: Comic book is addictive and fucking great to read. A couple times I just had to pause and stare at a panel to take in the emotion. In the TV series (which I still enjoy) it was just "Oh well Dale is dead now, mooooooving on.

Well, remember guys, the TV series as well as the game is just "canon" so, Glenn could very well stay alive in both.

Oh wait, nevermind. I got that backwards.

The TV series is a detached story line and the events differ from those in the comic book.

The video game is supposed to stay canon with the comic books (same universe) but there are a couple discrepancies already; so for now none of the media have anything to do with each other.

If you watched that after reading the comics, it's a seriously messed up move.

I watched the pilot, then read everything available. This game is my last experience of "the canon". After getting into Kirkman's style, I checked out Invincible, which is a far sillier story about a young superhero. But since its Kirkman, there are a few issues where he's beaten to a pulp and people he knows are TORN IN HALF.

Exhibit A.

I love Kirkman.
