Telltale Games

Game Lilly HAS to be comic Lilly. Her killing the Governor and redeeming herself for Carley/Doug, Judy and Lori is just too perfect an angle to throw away...at least from my point of view...

Well, let's wait for the book and see. It won't be the first time Kirkman has done an unpopular decision but so far his story telling has been top notch so let's give him a chance. Even if he ignores or changes stuff, even if it is a completely different character I think he has something really good for us in store.
If he doesn't deliver, well, I'll be the first one to call him on that but so far I'm staying a believer in a good upcoming book.

I totally agree!!!
and I'm really crossing my fingers. Lee gets a chance at redemption,why not game Lilly? cmon Kirkman

If it doesn't happen then I hope Telltale will do something to conclude the story of their Lilly in future seasons.

Well said.

I look forward to reading the book (Rise of the Governor was a decent read) and if the characters are different I will still like to see what Kirkman has done with her.

Having read all the comics Lilly doesn't get much time on paper. She pops out of nowhere, does something terrible, does something great and then isn't heard from again. Before the game I never really gave her much thought but Telltale has really fleshed out the character and I like how it 'fits' with the comics.

what if kirkman kills off rick and makes lilly the main character?

would the comic fans here still read them?

Oooh! It would be controversial. Can't imagine it happening but would probably still read it.

I think as a spin-off comic it could work. I'm curious to know what happened to Lilly and the Woodbury survivors after the prison battle. But Kirkman has said time and again that those characters are 'dead to him' figuratively; and he's moved on from that whole story arc.

Until I played the game I agreed with that statement but now I want to know what happened to Lilly.

Well Rick is an amazing character but sometimes it feels like he has plot armor. Although, Kirkman is the author, which means that Rick could bite the dust any issue, still, we hope that it won't happen.
I do think Lilly is an amazing character and I wouldn't mind seeing more of her. I would prefer that she crosses Rick's path again and then they realize who was doing what in the prison arc. Now that's something I would definitely enjoy seeing.

Rock114 · 09/25/2012, 03:32 am

So you would enjoy seeing Rick shoot her in the head? Or maybe in the gut, lets her reanimate, then kills her again. Remember, she killed the wife he loved and his infant daughter. I highly doubt that Rick, at this point, cares whether she was manipulated or not.

CupcakeUnicorn · 09/25/2012, 01:02 pm

I get the TPB's so I'm only up to issue #96... so don't spoil anything for me please.

If he killed off rick and completely decided to go with Lily I probably would stop reading it. Rick isn't my favorite character so that wouldn't bother me too much but I really like some of the other members of his group (i.e. Carl, Andrea, Glenn, Maggie etc.) So, I wouldn't want to lose their story as well just because Rick is gone.

I won't spoil anything for you, but I do feel a temptation to mention that you have the perfect forum name to read on...

Well... I'm not sure she's that easy to kill

No, what I mean is that this could actually be a really powerful scene between the two of them.
I would definitely love to see more of her, whether it is in Telltale's game, a book, the TV show or the comic book.

P.S If anybody would try to insta-shoot her I think that would be Carl or Andrea, not Rick

I can't see Andrea shooting her. Carl doesn't really care about his mom anymore, but that doesn't mean he wouldn't take Lilly out if he saw her. I DO think Rick would shoot her though, as he loved Lori and still misses her. If Carl, who doesn't really seem to care, would kill her, why wouldn't Rick? I remember one scene where, after he finished speaking to a guy, he spilled his guts to Michonne that the entire time the guy was talking, Rick could only think about blowing his brains out because of how much easier and simpler it would be. And this is when the guy was apologizing about not being nice to Carl. Now, imagine if that same man had shot Rick's wife and infant daughter right in front of him...

And I'd love to see more of her too, but not in the comic. It just doesn't seem very likely that she would find her way up to D.C. from Georgia and meet up with Rick again. I could definately see them doing something small with her in the show though, given that so many people aparently like her.

Have you seen the latest issue? Some minor spoiler to those who haven't. I said Andrea and Carl because they haven't really evolved lately. Their mentality is still the "Let's shoot everything that we do not like or threatens us". Rick, however, has changed in the last few issues. Having witnessed what happened in issue 100, he realized he isn't the biggest and scariest thing out there. He does confess to Michonne that he doesn't want to repeat what happened with the Governor. I just don't see him as pulling the trigger that fast anymore. Not unless he's absolutely sure he's in control of the situation.

Rock114 · 09/25/2012, 07:50 pm

Unfortunately I haven't read past #90, so I might not know what I'm talking about even more than usual. Unfortunately, someone on the forums forgot to put spoiler tags on their post and I found out who died in #100 that way. I guess I'll take your word for it.

I've not read the comics but I thought that the descrepancy was that Lilly (video game) did not match up to Lilly (novel). Is there an issue now with her (video game) not matching up to the comics?

Is the only problem the background story of her father...namely how he died and his name?

We have to wait for the book to find out. To me personally, game Lilly is absolutely the same as comic book Lilly. They complement each other more than perfectly.

This^^^
It all depends on the upcoming book. I'm waiting to see if Kirkman has decided to mix things up.

They're just too perfect not to be the same person! Whatever the book says, I'll always see game Lilly as comic Lilly.

Definitely! We can only hope that the book will enrich the character instead of changing it. However, even if it does that I still hope it's gonna be a good story. Actually I'm sure it's gonna be a good story
