Top 10 Things To Remember For The Final Part of Walking Dead Season 11

Most of the undead beings in the “Walking Dead” franchise only have basic motor skills. However, a season 11 trailer hinted that more advanced walkers might be arriving very soon. This game-changing revelation pays off an Easter Egg from the “World Beyond” spin-off show. In a post-credit scene for the latter series, it’s revealed that a group of European scientists accidentally made a new zombie variant. A few members of the team coincidentally ended up in Ohio, where the Commonwealth is supposedly based. It’s possible that they continued their research and made even worse variants. If so, walkers may become vastly more dangerous as the series winds to a close.

After Commonwealth Deputy Governor Lance Hornsby fails to eliminate a few of the heroes, he retaliates by occupying their communities. Alexandria, Oceanside, and Hilltop residents all had to watch the villain’s troops march into their homes. But longtime fans know he’s just sealed his own fate. Historically, every single big bad who’s tried to conquer Alexandria has watched stubborn survivors rise up and take it back. There’s also a rogue group of heroes that can travel freely between the three towns and stir up trouble. And since Hornsby made the mistake of taking a shot at Maggie and missing, she’ll definitely be back for revenge. We have a feeling that the commonwealth banners he draped over the three communities will be brought down quickly.

Fans have been lucky to see most of their favorite characters make it through season 11 largely unscathed. However, there are a few major deaths that deserve to be mentioned. The young and fiercely loyal Hilltop warrior Marco was sadly shot by Darry’s former romantic partner Leah. During the same episode, the motorcycle riding hero got payback by ending her life. Ultimately, Season 11’s most crushing death so far belongs to Alden. He started off the series as a sinister savior before he shifted alliances and became one of Maggie’s most trusted friends. Seeing such a dynamic character go helped establish that more painful character deaths could be on the horizon.

In a shocking twist, Negan’s new wife Annie revealed to Maggie Rhee that the former big bad is going to be a new dad. This reveal comes almost ten years after the villain infamously slayed soon-to-be father Glenn in front of his wife. Despite Maggie’s very understandable resentment towards Negan, she understands how painful it is to tell a child their dad died in a violent manner. Her personal experience may drive her to be more protective of Negan and his wife. And if anything does happen to Annie, she’d know exactly what the villain is going through. Whether this baby announcement takes a tragic or triumphant turn, it may pave the way for Maggie and Negan to finally solidify their shaky alliance.

Explaining the entire history of the Civil Military Republic, or CRM for short, would probably take several weeks, diagrams and a bunch of red string. But the two most important aspects to remember about this community is that it is humongous and unforgiving to those who defy it. The CRM infamously saved/abducted Rick Grimes in the main series, tried to assassinate survivors in “Fear the Walking Dead” and destroyed entire communities in “The World Beyond”. It’s still unknown whether or not the CRM will play a role in the final part of season 11. But if you see their three symbol logo, just know that the survivors will be in for the fight of their lives.

Although the main series has tried to trick us into thinking characters were goners before, there are a few people who will be untouchable. While actress Melissa McBride ultimately chose not to reprise her role for a new spinoff show, the writers planned for her and Daryl to survive. That means the fan favorite duo is definitely safe. Surprisingly, Maggie and Negan are also set to star in a spin off that takes place in New York City. Maybe the duo will travel to save one or both of their respective children from the big and presumably rotting apple. While the plot could go in a hundred directions, we know for sure that they’re two of the four characters that won’t perish.

Pamela Milton largely held her position at the top of the Commonwealth thanks to shady practices and a series of lies. Now that people are starting to expose her misdeeds, her days at the top are numbered. But who will take her place? While Maggie traditionally rises to the position in the comics, her planned spin-off might take her too far away from Commonwealth to lead. Our best bet for leadership is Max Mercer. Her position as Milton’s assistant has made her very familiar with the duties of the office. Additionally, the risks Max took to expose her boss could put her in a favorable light. We’ll see who the people vote to lead them after Milton gets caught up in her own political web.

Getting married or maintaining a relationship in “The Walking Dead” universe sharply decreases your chances of survival. Unfortunately, there are a few notable characters who might befall this curse before the series ends. The fact that the loveable Jerry is happily married with three kids makes us constantly concerned for him. Additionally, we’re a bit worried that Eugene started a relationship with Max so close to the end. But we’re the most terrified about losing Rosita or Gabriel. We’ve lost count of how many times the priest has come close to death. And not only has Rosita far outlived her comic counterpart, but she’s currently a Commonwealth soldier. We hope she can find some way to dodge the curse and make it to the end.

In 2019, Robert Kirkman shocked fans by announcing the illustrated series would be ending without warning. During the penultimate story, a one armed Rick Grimes dies after being shot by the Governor’s entitled son Sebastian. The final tale then skips ahead to the future to show us how Carl has adjusted to the world after losing his father. If they adapt this ending to the live-action series, then the one-armed Aaron could be the one who gets shot by Sebastian. The writers could then show us how his daughter Gracie or Judith Grimes is handling the world years later. Since the main series looks so different from the comics, the ending is likely to take everyone by surprise.

The appearance of Rick’s iconic gun in a season 11 trailer made us optimistic that he can return to the main series. After losing his trusty weapon and being taken away from his family, Michonne went off to find him. Maybe the duo will show up in the main series to warn their friends of an incoming threat they faced offscreen. The spinoff show could then explain how Rick and Michonne reunited and what villain might be coming. The CRM has already been established as a big threat that didn’t allow Rick to go home. If he and Michonne appear to warn everyone about them, it would be a great build up for the spinoff. It would also make for a satisfying family reunion.
