FINALLY…I can join The League of Distinguished comic book readers (caught up!)!!
Andrea’s my girl… if she says they don’t die, well then dammit, Rick won’t!! He’s gotta at least see this war’s end!!
Rick is not going to die he still has a showdown with Negan .
What if Dwight is actually the one to take out Negan?
That is very likely Negan did steal Dwight’s wife and burned his face so he has every reason to kill Negan but I’m wondering what will he do after that . Rick won’t ever trust him so he is a marked man .
I was thinking of Lilly killing The Gov. Maybe Dwight would just disappear like Lilly did. Maybe Rick will learn his story & decide he’s not such a bad guy after all…just got caught up on the wrong side.
I can see that happening . I was thinking maybe Dwight will take over leadership for the remaining Saviors after the war .
If you read the Fall of the Governor pt2, you would know what happens to Lily
I’ve read it. We see no more of her after she kills The Gov.
Bastet- Please, no spoilers!!!
Didn’t mean to spoil anything, sorry!
What she said wasn’t a spoiler . You read the comic right ? When’s the last time you have seen Lilly ?
I’m hoping Maggie gets to kill Negan. That would punctuate her new found leadership nicely.
I think that’s a strong possibility so she can get revenge for Glenn.
Yeah- that’s what I think. She knocked out Gregory for cowaring to Negan. She mentioned Glenn then, too.
Right now, she doesn’t seem all that enraged, just saddened.
Knocking out Gregory and getting in his face seems pretty enraged. She is seething and mourning. Plus she’s trying to adjust to leading Hill Top. Def a new sheriff in town.
Indeed, she was enraged. But that was really over Gregory not standing up for himself or his people and that they were going against Rick’s plans. I haven’t seen her on a rampage, eager to enact revenge on Negan…not yet. However, that may come…she may come out, just like Eugene stepping up his game.
It’s a possibility that Dwight could kill Negan at the end but there was a lot opportunity that Dwight can take out Negan in other issues..
He could get fed up. You can see him struggling with what Negan has them doing. He probably wants to kill him but scared to damn death. He may feel empowered if he ever found out there were others that would be strong enough to back him up. Or there would have to come a point when he just decides he’d rather die & take a chance.
I could see Rick and Dwight both standing over a beaten Negan, arguing about what to do with him and Maggie to walk up and put a bullet in Negan’s Head. “for Glen”
naaah let’s use Lucille then!
That would be awesome!
Plus Neagen did iron his face and take his lady
That’s pretty horrible
What if Carl gets to kill neagan. I am putting my money on Carl or Maggie
I have Dwight taking out Negan in the back of my mind but Carl is in the forefront. Maggie might be the finisher.
It would be justified if Maggie gets the kill
I can see Negan finding out Rick is alive and confronting Dwight and all hell breaking loose
WARNING!! I hope you’re checking replies or have comments emailed…I just wanted to let you know that some loser posted a spoiler for the current issue on the Preview article. She totally ruined it for me! I hope I’ve saved it for you, just in case you pop up on that section of the site & haven’t read 125 yet!!!
AMEN
I don’t have a twitter account anymore or I would.
With his metal hand
I got to see that!
I am really lookong forwaed to see this metal hand
Metal hand? He ain’t Ash. It’ll be like Rolling Thunder.
What other comic charecter would you love to see just surprise everyone and just show up in the walking dead
I want Gabriel or Aaron to show up . How about you ?
I really wish they could get someone from the game to show up like clem or lee or kenny I think it would be cool
All those guys are awesome characters it would be cool if they were at Alexandria.
Next year’s spin off companion!
They could do a show based on the game and I bet it would be very popular off the bat . The game has a very strong fan base because of how close you feel to the characters.
No doubt I would love a show about that
Kenny from that crew would be a great addition his character is very unpredictable.
I think Gabriel was a pretty big character for a while he’s been missing in action lately.
I wish the show would keep more secrets. What if Abraham and Rosita would have popped up unannounced?
That would have been an “Oh SNAP!” moment!
Lol yes .
Yeah no doubt I would have loved that
My hopes are really on that being Lilly Caul on the cover of 127!
What do you think about Michonne and Ezekiel? Good team ?
Fighting team…well, I wanna see what the ol’ man’s got. He better have something akin to Jesus’s kickboxing skills to match Michonne or else he’s gonna be outdone by a chick, lol! Maybe he’s got a mean left hook. On the relationship side, I’m wondering how long before Michonne goes on to Heath. “NEXT!”
Yes Jesus and Michonne make a dynamic duo .
Hell yeah. These next few issues should be interesting.
welcome to the party 🙂
Thanks! So glad to be on this side of the fence, too!
It took you long enough me and Jason had claimed the comic discussion 20 years ago…..lol jus kiddin happy to have your witty comments here
I know, I know! I had a handful of comics to get & I was trying not to rush a good thing! 😉
Congrats !
Thanks!
FINALLY. 😉
Never pegged Jesus as a Ron Burgundy fan…
I’m guessing you didn’t peg him as gay either.
LOL
True enough, but is it weird that I find the fact that Jesus might be a Will Ferrell fan to be the far more surprising revelation?
That really got out of hand fast.
tooshey
Haha!
Something tells me there’s an extremely pissed off Carl in that second panel. I’m still not convinced this is the way Rick dies: I think it’ll happen rather abruptly in one of the final two issues of this arc though. If this is how Rick dies, in a completely passive and non-badass way, I might throw something out a window.
If it’s not 125 it wont be in the next two. Kirkman did an interview where he said we’ll know Rick’s fate by 125. I personally believe Dwight didn’t muck the bolt. I think if Kirkman plans on at least 300 issues, he’ll kill Rick off around issue 200.
I’m definitely feeling your first sentence. Carl… He’s not happy.
Is Andrea holding her own hand? Doesn’t look like a left.
Rick’s hand is holding hers.
Yeah, I think you’re right. The finger joints look like a man. I don’t think he’s dying from fever, though. I think I’ll hibernate until Wednesday.
Yessir.
I bet most of you guys get digital while I gotta wait for mail order delivery, which puts me at probably Fri or Sat.
That sucks, man. Yeah, I buy the digital from Image.
thanks for the heads up man
🙂
I wonder if Eugene has any ammunition stashed anywhere.
am betting that he does, can you see Eugene come to the rescue at the last minute, that would be cool.
Yes I was thinking he and his escapees will be around the next issue and the Saviors are at Hilltop it will be a perfect time for Eugene to collect supplies.
I hope none of the people that escaped with him double cross him though, i like who Eugene has become (probably since the ball biting to be honest lol), and I don’t want to loose him now.
I didn’t think of that they probably are trying to find out the secrets of his operation.
I get the feeling Rick and co are ok for ammo for now as there has been no mention that they are low ( at least since Eugene was kidnapped). I also think Negan is ok for ammo. They never really used guns before the war broke out so they had a decent stash. However long term Negan knows he will run out and same with Rick. So I’m thinking Negan locked up Eugene to use after the war.
good thoughts I like it and that sounds like Negan .
I’m thinking on this issue, they could fake Rick death and Negan thinking , he won the war. Dwight knows that Rick is alive because Dwight didn’t shoot him with a walker muck bolt and at the end. Negan will be surprise that Rick is alive.
I’d think Negan would want to come back to see with his own eyes that the deed was done.
No. Negan still thinks, Rick is dead because Negan saw Dwight shoot him with a bolt. In the cover. All the saviors are laughing but Dwight makes a suspicious face. Dwight is probably going to think, there is going to be something wrong at the end of the war and Negan will see his fate by a bat to a face.
Negan thinks he’s as good as dead, but doesn’t have proof. Dwight may be working up for taking a stand.
You just say what I said. “Negan thinks he’s as good as dead,”
Negan thinks, He won the war. In the last issue. Negan said, “Those people are fucked… and it’s not like they don’t know it yet. They are fully fucking aware.” But Negan is going to be wrong. Why? Hilltop survivors and other ready know about Negan plan about the walker muck. Anyone who was Injured by the Savior weapon with walker mucks will die but Rick got hit by Dwight bolt but I believe, there wasn’t any walker muck on that bolt . Carl is worried about his father because he’s afraid he might turn into a walker. We know, Rick will not going to die because look at him.. He’s fine… When Rick is going to realize. Negan think, he is dead. Rick is going to play his game. Rick will probably, play dead. Meaning, Fake his death. Idk, Maybe, Doc Harlan will make Rick look like his dead and bring the body to Negan like in the movie, Harry potthead lol, Hilltop will hide Rick somewhere or grab a dead walker and dress him like Rick and cutting his right hand but I don’t think that’s going to work. Michonne know where the Saviors are hiding at. Hilltop and the others could escape and maybe Jesus will bring a bunch of walkers into that building they were hiding in. When Negan going to come back. He’s going to think, he is right about his plan but he is going to be fool at the end of the war. This is just my prediction in the next issue and the last chapter.
The proof was Negan witness Dwight shoot Rick with an infected bolt and he thinks, he is good as dead but when Negan is going to find out Dwight didn’t put any walker muck on his bolt. Dwight will be a dead man to Negan We all know, Negan is stupid to think that Rick is dead.
‘Cuz you said “No”.
The reason, I said no because you are pretty much saying Negan don’t believe Rick is not dead but I’m saying. Negan thinks, Rick is good as dead. Yes, Negan is going to be back to see the mess in that house where the survivor was hiding in.
I’m saying Negan will want to make sure that he’s dead…see for himself.
Can we agree that Negan will want to make sure he’s dead & not just assume?
I Honestly, I don’t want to repeat what I said but I have to…sorry. The way you said that. It’s sounded that, Negan doesn’t believe Rick is not dead but in the comic, Negan knows Rick is dead… In issue 123, Negan said, “Rick’s as good as dead and without him, they’re nothing. Game fucking over” with a big smile on his face saying that. When Negan says that, He is so happy that Dwight Shoot Rick with his infected bolt and Negan knows, he is turning into a walker because he got shot by an infected bolt but It’s not only Rick. There are some people getting infected too and Negan thinks, he is winning the war because he’s known that Hilltop is in big trouble. He’s think, Hilltop got Walkers inside and outside that house where the survivors are hiding in.
OK, we’re cool. I think we’re on the same track but running at different speeds. Onward….
Can we agree that Negan is STUPID to think, Rick is dead?
TOTALLY AGREE!! 😉
100% Negan will come back. I don’t think he was joking about pissing on Rick’s dead body.
I’m with you . I was thinking just that !
By looking at the second picture. That arm reminded me of the cover of the last chapter of the All Out War. It is could be Carl arm in issue 126.
!:D!:D!:D!:D!:D
Do not worry, If Jesus died, He resurrects after 3 days
Words can’t describe how bad I want to see Andrea put a round in Negan next issue..
Who is that character saying “Carl?” I don’t recognize him/her.
I forgot about that fella.
So did I. And that fella is not the only forgotten character.
(Come on Gabriel!)
Poor Mikey
I want to reaaaddd ittttttttt
I can’t wait, I’m to addcited to walking dead, I’ve read the 18 volumes in two days
Dude that must of been a marathon session
Yeah, the books are so addictive, it must be 2000 pages total !
was this your first pass at the comics ?
I began reading twd last year , there was the telltale game that was great , and to wait for the second part , I started watching the show, to wait for season 4 , I started reading the comics, the story hooked me and the continuity is great !
Good to hear, man! The game is what got me into the series. I played the first one and loved it so much. Saw the compendiums one day and bought them on a whim. Never thought I’d fall in love with a fictional world so fast.
I started on the game today. It was a lot different than what I’m used to playing… didn’t really feel like I was playing a game but rather helping give a script to someone else’s apocalypse experience. It is cool!
Hope you have fun with it, man. It’s worth playing all 5 episodes.
I understand why you guys have been raving over it now!
It’s a really great game, be sure to play the season 2 when you finnish 🙂
Will be doing that!
Awesome I couldn’t stop once I started glad you like it .
I played through it three times
I’m sure I’ll be filling up the empty save slots. Already kicked myself for some of the decisions/responses I gave.
Mega binge! I don’t see how you guys have been going, having to wait every other week between releases…much less, 1 per month!!
no don’t mention the monthly wait between issues lol , its going to hurt going back to monthly after being fortnightly.
Isn’t bi-weekly a normal run for some comics? I read something in one of the Letter Hacks where someone wrote in about keeping TWD on its bi-weekly run & they weren’t giving a “no” answer. Probably wouldn’t happen, tho…not with Kirkman being busy with the show & an upcoming “companion”. Ugh!
Only for the arc “all out war” ( issues 115 – 126) , but after that , they return to the monthly release :/
Yeah, spider-man is bi-weekly, among others, but its unfair to compare a creator owned like TWD with marvel, before all out war charlie adlard was pencils and inks, which I read in an interview took him about 22 days to do, about a page a day. Now that he has help with the inks they can do more. I read that in the ketter hacks too, am really trying not toget my hopes up tho, the pre orders after all out war only had 1 issue that month 🙁 but didnt a read that it was going to be a bigger issue just after all out war?at least for one issue.
WARNING!! I hope you’re checking replies or have comments emailed…I just wanted to let you know that some loser posted a spoiler for the current issue on the Preview article. She totally ruined it for me! I hope I’ve saved it for you!!!
it kills me thats for sure lmao
I have that to NOT look forward to! lol!
that’s awesome
We finally get to see Mikey once again after many, MANY issues of him not speaking AT ALL. WOO! #MikeySpeaks
I gotta say, looking up who Mikey is in the survivors guide is the first time I havent regretted buying the thing haha. I completely forgot him.
Rick is dying…
More preview with more jesus action :
where did you find this?
In a walking dead forum
Dammit that gets leaked quickly…
It wasn’t leaked, I posted it to a forum that has a good community (http://www.roamersandlurkers.com) and specifically asked that it be ONLY there as a gift to them. I guess some people just don’t care.
Perhaps leaked was not the right word. I mainly discuss issues on Roamers & Lurkers and saw you posted it there. I am willing to bet someone saw it on there and just posted it here. We all love you on R&L and really appreciate you keeping us in the loop. I sure hope it wasnt someone from the site but since anyone can view the comic threads it is open to the public. Either way, thanks again Brian!
Don’t worry, Brian. I care. WE all care.
This is the bus that Jesus mentioned.
Go ahead, Make Andrea’s day…
I still think Rick dies ;p
Do you guys have any clues what is Jesus doing with all those walkers
Clearing a path for a person who’s hellbent on revenge?
Do you mean, Eugene because Eugene is coming back to Hilltop.
At first I was thinking Carl, but I can’t see an adult clearing the way for him (he’d have to sneak off), so I’d have to go with Andrea.
Carl or Andrea will be a good suggestion for that topic . The question is. If Rick does die. Who will take vengeance for Rick death? I’m picking Carl because I believe, he is holding Lucille in #126. Michonne and Jesus knows where is savior are at. Andrea can snipe Negan out. You may be right about this. Dang, I’m so excited for this next issue to come out.
Can’t tell who’s holding Lucille. Carl’s got a gun. Look at Michonne…she’s going into a boxing match! I’d have to go with you & place my bets on this being Carl’s kill. Andrea might be backup.
did any of you notice the walker on the cover right below andreas left foot is the only one to have hair and it resembles ricks hairstyle?
I don’t believe that is not Rick because if, you look closely at the walker face. The face doesn’t have a beard but you got me worried for a sec.
Idk man, I’m not putting all my eggs in one basket on rick dying or not, Ill be mad if I’m wrong, especially if I think hes not going to die.
Look at the walker near andreas foot, its got the same hairstyle as rick, and look, no hand…..
this issue ends with Eugene and co flanking the survivors with the leftover stash of ammo and weapons, Negan is left standing alone, surrounded by the 3(4 if you actually count the saviors) communities that hes been terrorizing for too long, screaming FUCK! And then falling to his knees.
predictionssssss?
3 days left …. and in these 3 days I have exams !!!
I think Rick will not die yet… He does not show any possible symptoms of infection.
Dwight had a clear shot on Rick, he can put him down on an instant like Abraham… why did he just shot him at his abdomen?
It makes sense now that the arrow is not infected because Dwight is an ally he is aware that if he kills Rick their chance of murdering Negan will be gone.
2 days left ….
1 day, commence pants soiling.
Don’t kill Andrea, don’t kill Andrea, don’t kill Andrea..
I seriously dont understand when/where to purchase this new issue. #125 comes out today and I’d like to purchase it online. I was on the Image Comics site, but its not available yet. Does anyone know how long it takes to be able to purchase digitally online after the release date? A few hours? A few days? A week? BAH I need to know if Rick died or not! I’m living in limbo here!
125 comes out Wednesday. You should be able to have it immediately upon digital purchase, if I’m not mistaken. Comixology is one place you can get the digital from.
do u buy them digital or do u pick up the issues from a shop?
I found a seller on eBay that I can preorder from.
nice, it gets to ur door every Wednesday morning??
I just got caught up, so this is the first time I’m preordering. My past purchase from this seller took about 2 days for delivery, so looks like I’ll be digging my heels in Friday. Bummer.
Aww that sucks :/
lucky for me there is a comic shop right down the street from my house 😀
The nearest shops are at least an hour’s drive away. One doesn’t offer shipping & the others require a minimum # of titles and/or the shipping rate is STUPID.
Hey dude have u played season 2 of walking dead yet??
No, I’m still working on the 1st season. On ep 3. You?
this is completely unrelated to the video games, but i thought i saw you mentioning something about the novels in a discussion somewhere else? i don’t know maybe im trippin out. anyway i was wondering if those novels are any good. iv heard alot of mixed stuff about them. im picking up issue 125 today and i thought id try out the novels too. but from the reviews iv read it seems like its hard to read. like the writing style is just not good. is it easy to get past that? seeing how its the walking dead, i dont see how it could be bad…..but i was fooled before (survival instinct)
I’ve read all 4 of the novels. I saw one post on here where someone complained that it isn’t good writing, but I have read a lot worse! Actually, I didn’t think it was bad writing at all. I thoroughly enjoyed each book & read them pretty quickly, having no issues whatsoever with the writing skills (& Stephen King set the bar for me!). You can go on Amazon & read the first chapter or two, that will probably give you an idea if it’s worth your time.
im on season 2 now.. was just wondering.
S2 as good as the 1st?
*lips sealed* 😛
I’ll take that as a yes, dammit! lol
My comic hasn’t even shipped yet! I think when I’ve got all the issues for AOW, I’m gonna have to go digital!
I am of the mind that they will not kill Rick. My reasoning for this is solely based on the success of the TV show. I think there has been huge interest now in the comics that wasn’t there before. It would be bad timing to kill Rick just as new readers come over and are like WTF. But then again, Kirkman has shown he really doesn’t care. So who knows.
Anyone have an idea for when they will release the cover for this volume? I feel like they are usually shown by now unless this one has a spoiler or something on it. I figured it would just be Negan’s Army firing over cars back in the direction of Rick’s group on volume 20.
I can predict the show this comic I leave to fate LOL
thats because of the comic though, as much as the comic has now differed from the show, the main plotline hasnt really changed much, the hunters arc is what the show is following, we probably will get to the next one halfway through season 5. But as for rick dying, I am the same way I can’t predict it, ive looked at both angles and the possibility is 50/50 in my head, I don’t want him to die, especially this way, but I guess well find out tomorrow
I keep going back and forth on whether they will Kill Rick or not. My arguement against it would be that TWD has become so popular that killing off your main protagonist wouldn’t be wise, but thinking about it more would be that Kirkman really wants to change direction of the book. idk. I just don’t know.
Woah! Those letters in the back of #125 were a little harsh! Just proves how much we all care about this series! Bet we all feel a little silly now, huh? Should have known that Robert Kirkman was a boss. Ye of little faith. Thanks for the clean bolt, Dwight. Oh and fuck you Negan! Rick was never going to let you get away with what you did. You got what you deserved you fuckity fuck fucking asshole. Fuck. 🙂
Thanks for the SPOILER on the PREVIEW article! Some of us haven’t read it yet!!!
i got screwed over 2 by this…… >_<
guess its our fault for even starting to read the post 😛
Hell, no! This is the wrong section for that post!
#125 SPOILER BELOW!!!
