The war is over.
Videos by ComicBook.com
The Walking Dead concluded season 8 with the AHK alliance making their final stand against Negan and the Saviors, an all-too-brief battle won by way of Eugene’s sabotaged ammunition.
Rick defeated Negan, slashing his throat and finding redemption as he allowed his arch foe to live as a means of honoring Carl’s last wish, vowing to move forward into the new world and rebuild society.
Dwight and Eugene won their own redemption as they made things right, while Daryl and Maggie found themselves diametrically opposed to Rick’s resolution.
Forming a cabal in her Hilltop office, Daryl, Jesus and Maggie are going to bide their time as they plan to show Rick his way was wrong.
With Rick and Michonne ready to face the new world, guided by Carl, Morgan left the old world behind…
