This was also the time when Rick met Magna and her crew, who will be introduced later this season per ScreenRant. But, the current issues between Rick, Daryl, and Maggie as well as the troubles with the Sanctuary weren't a problem in the comics.Ĭivilization was rebuilt and everyone was doing fine, including the Sanctuary community with Dwight as its leader. The Walking Dead comics also had a time jump following the war to kick off the New Beginning arc.

At this point, Rick certainly looked different than he did on the TV show with a missing hand from his fight with the Governor. Rick’s BFF Daryl Dixon doesn’t exist in the comics at all and he was actually in a long-term relationship with Andrea, who was killed off in the Season 3 finale of the TV show.Ĭomic Rick obviously survived the All-Out War arc, which happened back in 2014, and made the choice to keep Negan alive.

But, TV Carol is still alive and has gone on an incredible arc from being a meek, abused housewife to a knife-wielding warrior. For example, Carol Peletier was a much younger and emotionally unstable character in the comics who died after she willingly let a walker to tear at her throat back during the prison days. Rick’s upcoming death (or departure) certainly isn’t the first time that the show has deviated from the comic storylines. There are a lot of TV fans who are not familiar with the show’s comic source material and they may be wondering what happens to Rick in the comics? Rick may be hanging up his cowboy boots in the show, but he is still alive in the ongoing comic series. Faithful viewers have followed his incredible journey from waking up out of a coma in Atlanta to his current struggles with building a new world in Alexandria. It’s pretty upsetting because Rick has undoubtedly been the apocalypse leader and overall centerpiece of this show since its 2010 debut. The Walking Dead fans are feeling all the feels because tonight will (presumably) be Rick Grimes’ final episode as the show moves forward with a fresh direction.
