The Walking Dead
Rick fromThe walk Deadperfectly embodies the mortal everyone trust they ’d be during the snake god apocalypse . Rick is a knowing leader , a kind Father-God , and a barbarous warrior when the situation calls for it . With a quality as democratic as Rick , there is spring to be some questions and debates surrounding the inner workings of his idea and motive , some of which offer a level of insight that would n’t be immediately obvious to fans just by reading the comic or see the show – and the creator ofThe Walking Deadsettled a major one .
Rick Grimes was introduced intoThe walk Deadthe same mode the fan were . One sidereal day , he just wake up , and he was suddenly in this zombie - replete post - apocalyptical world . His contiguous response is the same as anyone else ’s would be . muddiness , fear , and worry about his kinfolk , as he had no approximation if they were alive or not . While this is a stressful place , Rick should have been used to those , as he was a police military officer who recently fell into a comatoseness after being shot by an armed suspect in a firefight . Before he saw a single living dead , Rick had already get a lifetime - and - death situation , and those would continue until his final chapter . This leads into the lover - debate in - head : was Rick Grimes a indurate man quick to rive the initiation before the zombie spirit apocalypse forced him to be ? There ’s plenty of grounds to digest either hypothesis , but now , Robert Kirkman has given lover a definitive answer .
Rick Grimes Wasn’t Special Before the Apocalypse
InThe Walking Dead Deluxe#61 by Robert Kirkman and Charlie Adlard , fan are given the full original issue just as it was upon its release , except this version is fully color rather than black and white . On top of that , there were extra page added where Robert Kirkman answer fan questions about the series , which included the aforementioned debate about the unfeigned nature of Rick ’s psyche before the eruption . The question and answer were as follows :
Do you think Rick ever had that no mad hardened version in himself cover aside even before the apocalypse quick to be touch off ?
I do n’t . The potentiality was obviously there , but I do n’t think it existed until it needed to .
This authoritative answer to a burning fan question is incredibly interesting , as it not only answer the question itself , but also speaks to the entire point of the serial publication . At its meat , The Walking Deadis about who mass are and what they ’re forced to become in a sentence of crisis . sure enough , there are people likethe Governor or Neganwho were clearly internalize some indite - up aggression that they were felicitous to loose when society crumble , but that ’s not what the series is about . It is n’t about how horrible people are once they ’re turn over the chance , it ’s about how even the proficient multitude are forced to do horrible things to protect themselves and the ones they screw , yet even in the face of possibly unforgivable natural process , they still do n’t lose themselves or give up hope .
With this question answered by series Almighty Robert Kirkman , The walk Deadfans can now rest assured that Rick was n’t some confidential initiation - happy ‘ badass ’ looking for an self-justification to edit open , he was a proficient man who did what he could to sustain his humanness in a world that had quite literally gone to hell .
