The Walking Dead: New Images From the Midseason Premiere Debut Online

has a sneak peek at Sunday’s midseason premiere of AMC’s The Walking Dead, titled “The Suicide King.”In the episode, Rick grapples with his role as leader of his band of survivors when Carl tells him to step aside and deal with their family life and Hershel tells him that it’s time for him to step up. Meanwhile, Daryl and Merle Dixon are locked in battle in the gladiatorial arena to see which one of them (if either) will get to walk away from Woodbury alive. And Rick, Glenn and company know they have to save them from The Governor.Here, we see a couple of photos of people in cars–one of them appears to be Maggie, about to drive Rick somewhere, while Rick talks to Carl and a group of walkers look on just beyond the prison fences. It certainly doesn’t look like a happy scene for anyone involved, so it’s not unlikely this is going to be just as Rick sets out to rescue Daryl.
