In my recent nerdy googling I realize that I had missed the most recent TBP of the comic coming out (though not by much). As per usual - SPOILERs ahead…
So this has been brewing for some time, and like Rick mentions early in the story - they’re heading into war and there will be casualties. Although no one really major dies here (I guess my definition of major includes people that have been around for half the series or more at this point) we still feel the devastation to come. I love Rick’s plan for taking down Negan, I love that we see Negan scrambling a bit. Because of the twists and turns that this book takes in general you don’t feel overly confident that everything will turn out for her heroes in the end - that’s the beauty of this story - devastation happens. Part of me would like to think that the Negan storyline won’t be this short-lived. I’ve said this before but what I love about Negan is that he’s practical. He’s crazy, sure, but he understands that people need to work together - his only problem is insisting that he’s the head rooster, and the things that he does to other people. His counter-attach using Holly was brilliant and smart. I’m excited to see how the rest of this story arc plays out. It’s going to be a bloody end…
