It's like the chicken and the egg, Will, the chicken and the egg! We-we think it started in the past, but it didn't. It started right here, in the future! That's why it's getting larger in the past.

They're the two young kids on The Walking Dead tv show that people seem to despise (IMO) irrationally. Like Duck. But I never felt comfortable with hating little kids and wishing death on them just because they're annoying.

I'm gonna off duck for getting Shawn Killed, his incompetence, and the fact I don't want Clem to grow up to be with him... The annoyance is really more of, just something to make it easier.

I wouldn't outright murder the kid, but if there's another decision between saving anyone and Duck, Duck's losing. Loud, oblivious, slow kid with the nails-on-chalkboard voice is a liability to the group. My only hope is that TTG doesn't nullify our choice if it comes up again.

my order of who i save

Duck Vs Clem {Clem wouldnt even have to think about it hell i wouldn't have to look my thumb would predict the clem button and hit it]

Duck Vs Kenny {Duck because otherwise i'm going to have to listen to Kenny's bitching about not choosing duck]

Duck Vs Kaatja {Duck because Kenny seems to care more about Duck then Kaatja]

Duck Vs Carley {Carley because she's useful also It'd break her mind to be chosen again and make her pliable in case lee needs to have an obediant puppet may be cruel but ya gotta do what ya gotta do}

Duck Vs Doug {Duck because then Doug can join Carley in the afterlife]

Duck vs Lily. {Duck because Lily has Canon invincibility}

Duck vs Luis {Duck because man who the hell is this guy}

Duck vs Ben {Ben because he's more useful to the group}

Duck Vs Lee { If it was down to just Clem Lee and Duck then Lee if the rest of the gang were there to raise Clem then Duck}

Duck vs Duck {Now this is the hardest whoever wins we lose.}

Yeah, well, I said it that way assuming the only way we could off the Kid is with one of those sadistic choices.

By the end of Episode 2, here's my priority list:

Clementine
Carly
Lee
Lilly
Katjaa
Ben (new kid)
Kenny
Duck

Where are you guys getting this whole redemption thing from? I've seen several posters mention it but I've never seen it mentioned in the story. The only time Lee ever comments on it is when he's deciding whether or not to tell the group that he's a convicted murderer.

On topic: Clementine seems similar to Carl from the comics. She does seem somewhat more mature and seems to be more compassionate though. I can definitely see her going survivor mode similar to how Carl has. While Clem is definitely going to be interesting as she grows, I'm more curious about how Duck will learn to cope (if he even gets the chance).

I'm not sure what's up with the Sophia hate. She's seen some terrible things (especially after issue 100) but she's been a great character. She was short-lived in the T.V. series though.

I had a soft spot for Sophia... then again, I'm typically really protective of females, so. Men are definitely an expendable gender as far as I'm concerned. Ont hat note, I hope Duck gets the Chomp.

Lee doesn't need redemption for the senator what happened was


Lee found out his wife was having an affair with a senator so one evening while Lees wife was having dinner with the senator Lee was watching from outside when the power was cut and an man broke into the house to try and kill the senator and Lee went to rescue the senator and his wife he grabbed a fire poker and hit the attacker in the head but then the lights came on and the security guards rushed in to see Lee standing over the dead senator with a bloody poker and seeing as how lee's wife never saw the actual attacker so...


it was an accident

Dude... what? It's too bad I wasn't wearing a helmet, you just blew my mind.

If you ever get to read the comics, you'll really feel bad for her. She had it much worse in them. After seeing what happens to the other children in the group, you may even change your opinion about Duck.

Part of what makes TWD such a fun series is the character development. The kids in the series add a lot to the story. Watching what happens with Carl and the twins is just insane.

I hope Lee doesn't die until I find out why he killed that senator. That said, I don't think TTG will pull the plug on the protagonist - that would be annoying as hell because I've invested so much time in knowing him, making choices for him etc etc.

Besides, I think Lee and Clem's fate will be intertwined. I just hope there will be a space in the story board for Carly too - they make an awesome team.

the redemption thing is

lee is considered by 'larry' and the like to be bad news/evil because of the murder rap.

the events are unknown capn is speculating he has a habit for doing that

so by logic,

lee will find the path to forgiveness and a new outlook on life and a positive footnote in his life story to out shine the senators demise by 'his hand'

via saving/protecting clem and the group from uncertain doom

nessa it's been made clear 'to me at least' lee's wife was having a relationship/affair with the senator and for some reason lee killed him over it, the only real clue is hearing his wife say' i love you' then a scream followed by smashing of glass, this happens in ep 1 in the barn when lee tries to sleep.

I enjoy the dynamic between Lee and Clem too. I've just learned not to get attached to a character because of the comics. Kirkman can be a bastard to fan favorites.

I agree with you about Carley. She's a total bad ass. Saves your life twice within 30 minutes of meeting her. She gives you the benefit of the doubt concerning your past as well. It really was TTG's fault that not many saved Doug. It was a no-brainer when it came to that decision, haha.

It absolutely makes sense. I'm in the same boat.

I'm going through a new playthrough and am trying to be even MORE brutal and pragmatic... She'll definitely live through that playthrough, though whether or not she'll die inside is another matter.

I’ve tried to raise Clem in a bubble of innocence because she’s a smart kid who will slowly work things out on her own without me saying “Look this is a dead person” chop, “This is a bad man” slice.

That plan may have been ruined the moment she saw what Kenny did in the meat locker and I’d like to see how the relationship between the two plays out now after seeing her reaction to Lee if he kills a person, I think she’ll be wary of Kenny.

I really want to make Kenny pay for Clementine witnessing Larrys murder by Kenny. I mean i'm not saying i'd kill him but i would punch him.
