The Walking Dead is back this weekend!! You don’t understand how excited I am that the wait is over.
While I love every storyline, both on screen and in the comics, I am especially excited for the Whisperers. Negan was cool and all, but he ruled his people using mostly fear tactics. He was fair, but he was strict. Alpha on the other hand, I feel isn’t all that fair and while she is scary, the Whisperers live a very cowardly lifestyle. Our group has yet to meet a threat that is both deadly and cowardly.
Don’t get me wrong, the Whisperers are smart to adapt to the initial threat to society and to be honest, when I first got into this universe, I thought the same way, especially when season 1 episode 2 “Guts” aired. Why not wear walker gunk? I personally don’t like that instead of fighting the dead, they have armed them. But then again, I’m biased towards the group’s way of doing things.
Plus, the more I thought about it, the more it grossed me out, could you imagine how bad that would smell?
Anyway, while I don’t agree with Alpha’s tactics, I do love how deadly the Whisperers are. The way they snuck up on the group was beyond genius in the show. I can’t wait to see how they’ll officially be introduced. Will it be the same in as in the comics? If so, who will die?
Bottom line, I’m so excited for this episode!
