Never seen the graphic novel. Unless it looks like this

In the comic, they are found again and Morgan ends up having a romance with Michonne, who is yet to be introduced.

If they go by the comic plot -- guess who offs him

I won't say for fear of ruining it for anyone just watching the TV Show!

That spoiler button is too damn hard not to click. Now I'm going to go get a copy of the graphic novel. I've decided I don't care.

It's way better. None of this self-destruct-button-in-the-CDC nonsense.

You can find them in bound formats. Really great story. AMC does a nice job on capturing elements of the story, but they get lost in the melodrama too much and are skirting the main theme of the story, which is that humans are worse monsters than zombies (wait til you get to Woodbury!).

BTW: In the comic, Shane is long dead by now and none of the silly stereotyped redneck characters are in it.

Well from my understanding, the show and the comic are supposed to be diverging more and more past season 1.

FWIW, in my view, a poor decision on their part. It's been hit-or-miss since season 1. Latest season has been good tho', so we'll see...

I partially agree. It will really depend on how the rest of season 2 turns out as to whether it was mistake or not. Strictly IMO of course.

In principle though, I like to see risks taken and new stories written/derived when adapting them to another medium. I'm not a big fan of direct ports because to much important stuff invariably gets lost and die hard fans get upset over it.

I'm curious if anything will happen to Dale this season...

The Dimer · 02-29-2012, 07:43 AM

If I had to guess, and this is purely speculation, I bet this season will end with a huge standoff between Shane and Rick's "sides" and a cliffhanger ending.

I think it is safe to say the show is back on point after a rough half season. Sad to see our symbol of humanity go, but so it is. Perhaps another member will pick up the mantle.
