The Walking Dead Season Five: What Happened to The Walkers?

Back then, it was swarmed with walkers who made it nearly impossible to travel through, whereas set photos from yesterday depicted a look at the city where the threat seemed significantly more manageable and navigable.

What’s arguably more interesting, as you can see in a new batch of set photos above and below, is that the walkers appear to be fairly fresh.

Much was made in Season Four about the fact that the walkers were so dessicated and distorted, looking less human and more ghoulish than ever. It helped to set them apart from a season and a half of conflict with The Governor, which showed that humans are often more dangerous than the undead.

The Walking Dead returns in October, but will likely debut some footage and make some big announcements at Comic Con International: San Diego later in the month.
