YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE...MAYBE TWICE!
The Origin of “The Walking Dead’s” Negan is Revealed!
By MrDisgusting on April 8, 2016
One of my favorite things in the comic book world are one-shots, or stories that run parallel to the main arc of a series.
“Preacher” had some of my favorites, giving us the origins of all of the comic’s characters. And while I’m a bit behind on reading Image’s “The Walking Dead” series, I’m pretty stoked to learn that Robert Kirkman is going to reveal the origin story of Negan, and his barbed-wired baseball bat Lucille.
THR shares the first ever page from “Here’s Negan,” which will be told in 48 pages — with four a month included in Image+. (The latter will also be part of Diamond Comic Distributors’ monthly Previews Catalog and available to buy separately for $1.99.)
What you see below is Negan creating his weapon of choice, which he calls “Lucille”. “The Walking Dead’s” Robert Kirkman and artist Charlie Adlard collaborated on this new miniseries.
This past Sunday Jeffrey Dean Morgan made his first appearance as Negan on the AMC adaptation, which ended in extreme controversy.
While we wait to find out who Negan’s first victim is, Morgan said this week that he hopes Kirkman’s upcoming Negan backstory comic series will be weaved in onscreen.
“I talked to Robert Kirkman after we did Talking Dead, and he is doing the backstory of Negan right now. But whether or not — or when — we see that, and I hope we do, I can’t answer that. But hopefully we’ll find out more as we go,” he told THR during a conference call with reporters. “I approach [Negan] … like he used to be a used-car salesman. That’s what I know, and there’s not a lot beyond that. … He’s a car salesman who has survived as long as Rick and his gang, so what has he done to get there?”
The first issue of Image+ will hit stands April 27 and will feature other bonus creator-owned comics content.

I got up to issue 100 and haven't read anymore TWD comics...Not because I don't want too, but because I'm not able to find anymore that I can read...(Get the picture)....
I just hope they don't turn this into another Governor...Intro season, conflict season and then end season...I still think they could have pulled out a lot more with the governor then just what the comic had and also with the conflict between Rick and the Governor....
As for who he killed, everyone who has ever read the comics know who it was...Now, for those who never read the comics, look at the camera work and follow the camera angles...You will figure it out...

well of course we know who is suppose to die but the shows been pretty good at changing parts around. i mean Hershel took over for tyreese with the governor, and bob took over for Hershel with the terminus crew. glens probably gonna die but we thought that before. but yeah he has a very small chance of not wining up a red smear on the pavement. his was one of the most brutal deaths in the comic so in a show already filled with memorable and gruesome character deaths it will be interesting to see what the walking dead do with it.
and i know what you mean jess i got up to the seen with Solomon and the tigers. i could probably find the issues after it but its a lot of hassle.
