    That man does not deserve Hershel's name.

    Real shame that Hershel turned out to be a dick like Sebastian, but I did get a punch to the gut when he ranted that Glenn had been forgotten.

    Bittersweet. I started reading the comic at #150, still felt like it wasn’t ever going to end.

    Pity. It doesn’t look like they touched upon Old Man Carl.

    After reading the spoilers, seems like Kirkman just phoned in the characters ending just to conclude it.

    the whole issue was about old man carl, what do you mean? it’s classic kirkman where you have to read between the lines because he never flat out tells you what happened but the issue basically told us everything Carl did from the end 192 to the end of this issue.

    If you think a guy in his 40’s is an old man, then I dunno what there is to talk about.

    This is middle age Carl.

    Wait till you’re there and see if you are an old man, I guess.

    i’m older than that lol! it’s old enough man Carl for me then because him being older wouldn’t have affected the story at all. The story tells you all you need to know for now, If Kirkman wants to do a money grab and tell stories after this later i’m all for it but for this books story and the series ending the age he is is fine.

    I think it was a fine ending. Not great, not bad. Just fine.

    Sorry to Zombie Thread this discussion, but does anyone know if the "Here's Negan" mini-stories, the Negan special and The Alien are collected anywhere?

    I'm currently buying the Walking Dead Deluxe, but also have all the trades with 5 or 6 issues in each, so up to Volume 32.

    Cheers.

    Thank you for the reply. Strange that they never collected it. I believe it'll be adapted into the new series once it finally starts. Wonder if they'll mention Rick in it, as in the TV Series Rick never mentioned a brother.

    There was a special hardcover Here's Negan (Comic Series) | Walking Dead Wiki | Fandom

    But I don't think it was ever in a TPB and it wasn't in the Compendiums

    Theres two of them from what I recall: a regular hardcover and Barnes & Noble exclusive hardcover.
    The exclusive one had a different cover and came with an issue #100 variant.
