The Walking Dead Releases New Last Episodes Key Art

The Walking Dead released a new teaser trailer and official key art for the AMC zombie drama's last eight episodes, which begin airing October 2. Daryl (Norman Reedus) and Carol (Melissa McBride), the only remaining members from the original Atlanta group to appear on all 11 seasons, are front and center, along with Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan). No longer is it "fight the dead, fear the living." As the survivors band together to fight the living — Part 2 of the final season ended with Hilltop, Oceanside, and Alexandria under Commonwealth occupation — they'll fear the dead once more when new walker variants threaten their rebuilt civilization.

Below is AMC's synopsis for The Walking Dead: The Last Episodes and the new Season 11C key art. 

"On the heels of the oppressive presence of locusts, an even greater force is bearing down on every single member of each community. With Commonwealth flags raised at Hilltop, Alexandria, and Oceanside, there's no time to strategize for those on the road. It's a race against the clock to stay alive and extract those still living in the Commonwealth before Hornsby (Josh Hamilton) can execute his revenge. Inside the Commonwealth, Connie's (Lauren Ridloff) article has created more chaos than planned. By exposing Governor Milton's (Laila Robbins) corruption, their hope to create a better, more equal, life for all may instead put everyone at risk. With the vast debt our group owes and no other viable place to live, simply leaving has never been an option. But if their next move fails, staying won't be an option either. 

"What they're about to embark on will only invite more danger with massive consequences. The clock is ticking for our heroes inside the Commonwealth as well. As each group continues to get caught in uncontrollable situations, threats lurk around every corner, dead and alive. The looming pressure is cresting towards a day of reckoning for all. Will the sum of their individual journeys cumulate into one, or divide them forever? The fight for a future continues to be exasperated by the ominous population of walkers. Not all will survive, but for some, the walking dead lives on."
