I almost feel like them putting that in the poster means we're definitely not getting hole-in-the-face Carl.

That would be a pretty hard thing to pull off on a cable tv show's budget. They'd have to continuously CGI his face.

I'll admit, I kind of was hoping that Jessie would make it out of this alive since she is pretty nice to look at (and basically the only Alexandrian that I don't want to beat with a baseball bat). But I know that won't happen. I just hope they do it like in the comics, especially since they already showed the hatchet.

an early non spoilery review:

quote:

I don’t want to get too specific—I’ll be plenty specific in The Walking Dead recap on Monday morning—but there is/are a character(s) whose death feels wrong in a way I don’t remember having encountered from the series before. And perhaps the largest reason for this is because the deaths are, in a word, dumb.

My point here is that when I tell you that “No Way Out” features the first death(s) that actually disturbed me, I hope you know it’s not because I’m a delicate flower who can’t handle a man being eaten alive by the living dead. But what I saw in the mid-season premiere was, for all intents and purposes, “misery porn”—a violent, disturbing scene that exists for no other reason than to be violent and disturbing. Like TWD feared it was losing its reputation for being brutal, and felt that it had to re-assert its horribleness in the most brazen way possible.

And there it is!

Yeah, I laughed a little reading some of them say that he'll be that last one alive.

Hopefully some dumbass won't ruin the shock for them.

Still think it's gone be Daryl getting kissed by that bitch Lucille

That would be a good fake for readers. And to be honest, it wouldn't devastate me at this point. I think Daryl's story has run its course at this point.

There seem to be a number of readers in there though. Got to get that under control this half of the season because there is some good shite to spoil.

Yep, and they seem to be itching to spoil something.

Carl lives, only loses the eye. It even helps him get laid, eventually.

I don't recall Enid in the comics, though it's been a while since I read them. Hell, Sophia is still alive in the comics, but she's not the one to receive the seed.
