3. I might be happy if Glen lives and Nagen comes in

for the comic book plot. Hopefully in the same episode.

Somebody big is going to die (maybe 2) before the fall break would be my guess.

[NewJeffCT]

4. I am pretty sure

we won't see Negan until the season finale - not the mid season finale. I think we might get Jesus in the midseason finale.

[Goblinmonger]

5. I agree Jesus in the midseason

I guess I just don't know that I'll be happy if Glenn is alive. If he is, it better be awesome. And if it was a misdirect to then kill another major character, that would classify as good in my book.

The only thing I worry about regarding Glenn and the comic book is (highlight the rest for spoiler) [font color=white] that Maggie becomes the leader that she does for the hilltop because Glenn isn't around. If Glenn lives through this attack and then doesn't get beaned with Lucille, then how are they going to get the awesome Maggie in the books? They have kind of been prepping her for it.[/font]

[NewJeffCT]

6. Maybe they will expand that this year

with her hanging out with Deanna and all?

[NewJeffCT]

7. Talking Dead isn't on until 11pm

Into the Badlands' premiere is on at 10, sandwiched between AMC's top two shows.

[NewJeffCT]

8. less than 15 minutes away

till the next episode. Should be interesting

[NewJeffCT]

9. Kicking off now

focus on Abe, Sasha and Daryl

[Joe Shlabotnik]

10. Fast start!

This one looks good!

[NewJeffCT]

12. That just dialed up fast

calm drive through town, and then suddenly...

[Solly Mack]

11. Well, that was exciting & somewhat humorous. (The walker in the biker gear)

[NewJeffCT]

13. with the helmet so big

it almost looked like an alien, I thought

[Solly Mack]

14. It did. Who are these people? They think Daryl is a savior or a wolf?

[NewJeffCT]

16. i think maybe the Saviors

the Wolves don't really have the guns like the guys in the cars

[Solly Mack]

19. That's what I was thinking. Maybe the wolves are the expendables of the Saviors.

Maybe the Saviors send them out to hunt, kill and steal.

[NewJeffCT]

15. Who is this "them" they keep talking about?

the guys in the cars?

[Solly Mack]

17. Good shot. Return the insulin like the good guy you are, please.

[NewJeffCT]

20. It's marked to keep cool

where has it been being kept cool until now? A fridge in Alexandria?

[Solly Mack]

22. Might be ice packets inside? It was still closed, right?

I don't know.

[Joe Shlabotnik]

18. What else was in the bag?

I missed it.

[NewJeffCT]

21. his crossbow

the walkie talkie, and a cooler of insulin

[Solly Mack]

23. Daryl will take the insulin back. The 3 people will go back to Alexandria.

The Saviors are looking for those 3 people. They track them back to Alexandria.

Just guessing.

[NewJeffCT]

24. good guess

not sure they can intro the Saviors so early, though

[Solly Mack]

25. Unknown members of an unnamed group until Negan arrives.

Could take them a few days to track them. A couple of days can be stretched out for several shows.

[Joe Shlabotnik]

26. Good call.

[Solly Mack]

29. The guy talked with contempt for people who kill for food and board

so, chances are those 3 are somewhat decent.

And if they stole the insulin...that could have ticked someone off.

Who knows? lol

[bettyellen]

27. joining in late.... no Glen yet, huh?

[NewJeffCT]

30. No

focus on Daryl, Sasha and Abraham - nobody else from the gang.

[bettyellen]

33. Nice to see you- Jeff, Sol, Joe!

[Solly Mack]

31. Nah - he's still in the unknown dead undead realm.

[Joe Shlabotnik]

34. yeah glen's a walker, he took a bite out of Darryl.

just kidding.

[bettyellen]

37. HA!

[NewJeffCT]

42. Here ya go

[bettyellen]

45. Thanks, I needed a smile just now.

[NewJeffCT]

28. Sasha seems to be doing a lot better

as good as one can be in the zombie apocalypse

[Solly Mack]

32. She does seem a little better.

[bettyellen]

35. she needs to be outside the wall sometimes, let her ya yas out. WHUT?!?!?

[Solly Mack]

38. We all do.

[bettyellen]

41. Yup. ;-D

[Solly Mack]

36. Ut oh! I knew Daryl would give it back though!

Shit. Bad people. Those people are going to die.

No! Daryl to the rescue!! (that's really going to piss those people off)

[NewJeffCT]

39. damn

these new guys are bad - you can tell from the music

[Solly Mack]

43. lol! Funny because it's true.

[Solly Mack]

40. Who are these people?

No, Daryl. You're not stupid, you're a good guy!

[NewJeffCT]

44. They obviously know what they're doing

seem pretty organized, and they knew to chop off the arm, too.

[Solly Mack]

47. Could you catch any of the names they were spouting?

Might be a clue to their identity.

[NewJeffCT]

49. No

I thought I heard something, but not quite

[Solly Mack]

46. Doubt they are Saviors now. Since they were willing to back off after a point.

Saviors don't behave that way.

[bettyellen]

48. Is there more of that Airplane stuff online? It's slow going.

[Solly Mack]

52. Link inside :)

http://www.amc.com/shows/fear-the-walking-dead/video-extras/fear-the-walking-dead-flight-462-part-1

The rest are there too.

[Solly Mack]

50. Hoisting on his own petard Walker.

[Joe Shlabotnik]

51. Nice find!!!

[bettyellen]

55. I'd want a frosty beer. Or some good scotch too.

[NewJeffCT]

53. Abraham just scored a loot drop

and cigars

[Solly Mack]

54. WTF! Abraham - kill the walker and take the launcher!

[Solly Mack]

56. Well, OK. That works too.

[NewJeffCT]

59. I was wondering what he was doing

there - thought he was going insane

[Solly Mack]

62. Me, too. Maybe it had something to do with the uniform...maybe it was something Sasha said.

[Solly Mack]

57. The great cosmic peak in the form of the Saviors?

Just saying.

[bettyellen]

58. brown chicken, brown cow.......

[bettyellen]

61. Abe's going to kill the walker because it's tough to git down with one watching.

[Solly Mack]

60. Sure. Whenever I find a RPG I always get horny.

[NewJeffCT]

63. Isn't he already with Rosita?

Abraham - the Lothario of the zombie apocalypse

[Solly Mack]

64. She thinks so. Maybe he likes Sasha because they are both in the same place mentally.

[bettyellen]

73. Crazy in the head, crazy in bed...

[Solly Mack]

79. Or not. :)

[NewJeffCT]

65. wish I could watch Talking Dead

but, I need to get my rest

[Solly Mack]

66. OK. Maybe we'll learn something.

[Solly Mack]

67. Bags on head. Friends murdered. Still no closer to knowing!

Yuck! Well, so much for stealing the insulin.

[bettyellen]

68. I know!

[Iris]

77. Was that Glenn's voice?

[Solly Mack]

69. The 3 questions! (Well, 2 of 3)

lol

[Solly Mack]

70. Those fuckers!

[bettyellen]

71. Hopefully Sasha will kill them.

[Solly Mack]

72. If she catches them she might.

[bettyellen]

75. Was that Glen?

[Solly Mack]

78. Yes (Edit to add)

ETA: Below, Jeff posted a link to Reedus saying it was not Glenn's voice. So, back to being dead for Glenn.

[Solly Mack]

74. Yay! He needs his cross bow though!

[Joe Shlabotnik]

83. they'll meet up again.

[Solly Mack]

85. I think so too.

[Solly Mack]

76. Glenn's alive. That was his voice.

[NewJeffCT]

80. Was that Rick's voice at the end

or Glenn's? The "Help"?

[Solly Mack]

81. Sounded like Glenn to me.

[NewJeffCT]

82. I meant to put on closed captioning

because I knew the "help" was coming... but, for some reason, the CC was disabled.

[Solly Mack]

84. I was just now saying too bad it wasn't on here at home.

I think the timeline would be with Rick back in Alexandria and too far away for the radios to work, but closer to Glenn's spot.

If those 3 had saved Rick, he would know where they were, and they would have gone back with him.

Still not sure Rick got out of the RV though.

I know last week they kept pointedly using Glenn's name when talking about the others not being back yet.

[NewJeffCT]

87. Norm Reedus says

that was NOT Glenn's voice

http://www.ew.com/article/2015/11/15/walking-dead-norman-reedus-always-accountable-606-interview

[Solly Mack]

88. Well, OK. I'll go back to thinking he's dead then.

[Baitball Blogger]

93. I got the impression it was the guy that stole Daryl's bike.

[NewJeffCT]

95. somebody with a young teen

on Spoiling Dead says that his son immediately said "that's Aaron" over on Spoiling Dead.

[Baitball Blogger]

97. It just keeps getting better and better.

[NewJeffCT]

98. I believe

I read somewhere that last night's episode coincided with Rick's escape from the RV and run into Alexandria. So,maybe Daryl, Abe and Sasha will be riding to the rescue with the bazooka and fuel truck?

[Baitball Blogger]

99. Obviously, D, A and S are packed for some scorched earth warfare.

However, zombies who are running around in flames just create a fire hazard.

Alexandria may burn to the ground, if they are not careful.

The sewer drains may be a safe place to be while it happens. Assuming they can block off all the air holes where smoke could encroach, and assuming the fires don't get too hot to burn them.

[Solly Mack]

86. Wonder if the fuel in the ground is still good.

That was a fuel cover wasn't it? With the fuel truck hidden behind tree limbs.

[NewJeffCT]

89. Yes it was

since the zombie virus extends the life of zombies, maybe it adds to the life of gas as well?

[Solly Mack]

90. lol! Would be handy if it is still good. Water could have contaminated it.

Last edited Mon Nov 16, 2015, 12:13 AM - Edit history (1)

Well, unless others have claimed the fuel.

[Liberal Veteran]

91. This season is turning into the longest day ever.

Rick and crew try to lead zombies away.
Carol and Morgan defend casserole and Alexandria.
Glenn and Michonne take a little detour.
Morgan has flashback chat with wolf.
Rick makes it back to Alexandria for some quick aftermath talk.
Sasha, Darryl and Abraham finish being walker tour guides.

It's still the same day.

[Solly Mack]

92. Waiting on talking dead.

[Solly Mack]

94. Surprise guest next week on Talking Dead.

[NewJeffCT]

96. uh oh

Hopefully, not Lennie James

[Solly Mack]

102. I hope it's not him either.

I was told there is a photo of Glenn floating about where he is covered in blood and sitting in a corner, across from someone in dark jeans and boots.

Have you heard anything?

[NewJeffCT]

103. No, I have not

I have heard that we do get resolution to the Glenn cliffhanger next episode, but that's about it

[Solly Mack]

104. A resolution would be good.

Either way.

Some timeline questions could get answered as well. How did Rick get out? Did someone help him? Who's asking for help? SAD and the fuel truck - was that after helping Rick?

Why would they show Rick back in Alexandria waiting for the others (and he does say the others), if only Glenn was still missing? So, if it's not just Glenn missing then who helped Rick, if anyone?

Abraham talked as if he knew Rick was back at Alexandria, so maybe SAD aided Rick then went about their task. Everything that took place last night was after the fact. (helping Rick)

Questions. Questions. Questions. Assuming the timeline is unknown at this point.

[Iggo]

100. I think it's the Jinj.

He had a long hopey-dreamy speech, and you know what that means...lol.

[Solly Mack]

101. Yeah - never make those kind of speeches on a show where people die weekly.

[Goblinmonger]

105. Any comic book readers think the blonde guy could be Dwight?

Here be spoilers: highlight the rest if you dare [font color=white]It seems pretty clear that the people in the trucks that came for him are the Saviors. They are talking about having to pay for everything and the punishments. You know the blonde guy is going to be punished for his so why not a good old fashioned iron to the face. And he has a "wife" with him to be taken. And you know he's coming back because Darryl ain't done with him, so that will provide the "should we trust him" tension when he comes to them after being disfigured and losing his "wife."[/font]

[NewJeffCT]

106. It sounds like

that the group is The Saviors. Odd timing to run into them now - I liked the comic setup with meeting The Saviors after they get to Hilltop.

[Goblinmonger]

107. Yeah, it is an odd timing

given that I doubt we are done with the Wolves, but from the lack of showing any faces, my guess is that The Saviors will be a slow burn with the full impact of them coming at the end of the season. We'll get Jesus and the Hilltop first and then pieces will be put together.

[Iggo]

108. Now is that pronounced hay-soos or jee-zuss?

I just want to make sure I'm reading it right.

[Goblinmonger]

109. Jee-zuss

It's a nickname based on looks.

[Iggo]

110. Ah-ha! Thank you.

[TuxedoKat]

111. Any comic book readers

know the best way to purchase the comics digitally? I'd rather buy bigger volumes than individual comics.

[NewJeffCT]

112. No idea

They do have some large volumes with 50 or so issues combined into one book.

[Goblinmonger]

113. It's going to be pricey to get caught up.

Right now they are on issue 148. But here are my suggestions:

comiXology is probably one of the main sites for getting digital copies of comics. I mean, Marvel has their own thing, but that site is a good starting place.

There are compendiums on paper. The 3rd just come out which goes to 144 and, on Amazon, they run about $35 a piece.

If that is still pricey, most library systems carry the trade paperbacks. This site does a nice job of giving the breakdown of which comics are in which collections.

At this point, I'd go the Compendium route. It's cheaper. I mean, if it needs to be digital, you could do that, but it would cost more than the compendiums. Unless you are loaded, there is no way you are going to get all the individual comics (and if you did buy the first one and took it out of its protection and read it, I'd have to come slap you).

Hope that helps. It's worth the read.

[NewJeffCT]

114. Thanks

good rundown of the different options. I ended up buying the first compendium when Borders was going out of business (2010?), so I got it for like 75% off the original price. I think I had read the first several stories years earlier, but never actually bought them.

[TuxedoKat]

115. Thanks

I'd like to get compendiums in a digital format but those probably aren't available. I just have too many books and magazines around here already! I think it would be great to read the series on a large iPad.

[Goblinmonger]

116. Looks like they have it on Google Play

https://play.google.com/store/books/details/Robert_Kirkman_The_Walking_Dead_Compendium_1?id=3cMaAgAAQBAJ&hl=en

Though that may limit your iPad reading dreams. Not sure.

[TuxedoKat]

117. Cool

Actually, it looks like it will work on an iPad. I'll let you know for sure later how it works out.

[Goblinmonger]

118. Awesome

I collect the paper ones, but I have read some of the Marvel stuff digitally and it's actually pretty cool.

[Goblinmonger]

119. BOOM!

Herein be minor spoilers (although it is something Walking Dead released yesterday, so, nothing major)
