Whats a better way to comeback then talking The Walking dead!
"Wolves are not far" sounds scary right? Sounds like Red Riding hoods gonna come skipping out the woods with her little basket telling you she's on her way to Grannies… No just me? Ok were carry on.
But so far we have seen writing on the walls, the letter "W" on a tree that Morgan passes (more on him later) and it carved into a few walkers heads. So I guess what Im asking like everyone else is who are the Wolves and why should we be so scared of them?
Lets start off by getting the many theories out of the way first shall we…
Neegan everyones faviroute maniac with a very odd relationship with a barbed wire baseball bat, leader of the saviours, burner of faces and has many, many women to call wife. Now this would be the easiest guess if you have read the comics. He's the biggest "bad guy" the group face since coming to stay at Alexandria and well its safe to say when he does show up in the TV show its gonna be a big deal. But heres my problem with that theory… The group has only just made it to Alexandria and to just throw Neegan at them straight away would feel like a waste of time that could be used developing this "safe zone" and its people. Neegan is coming but he's not the wolves and he's certainly not showing up on are TV screens this season or even the next I feel like. I won't go into spoilers in this so don't worry but with so many big events centred around Neegan showing up, it would feel like they are just throwing it out all at once. N after what they did with The Governor I really do feel like they are playing their cards safe with this one.
The next one is that they are the new group that have just been introduced in the comics that wear The Walkers skin again thats a massive NO! NOPE! NOT HAPPENING!! Its something that I wouldn't associate with this group the wolves as they sound like a solitary pack that work as a close knit family or team. Where as the new group that were just introduced in the comics don't feel that way at all, they feel more like walkers just wondering about solitary and sometimes ending up together in packs.
Now the most obvious scenario is that The Wolves are a brand group that have been created for the show by the writers. Its not something new for the show as they have made differed quite a bit in the past from the comics killing off characters that aren't dead in the comics or keeping certain characters alive instead. You know the deal by now. When you call a group The Wolves I get the feeling that they aren't going to have pet wolves like some people have thought but more that they are a close knit family or group. So far we haven't seen anything to say that they are bad people either. So they carve "W" into walkers heads that doesn't mean that they are evil people just means they could have massive egos about themselves and what they kill. It could also be like a territory thing being called The Wolves. So hear me out Wolves mark their territory and they protect that territory more then anything else. So marking the trees with the W's and the walkers show their territory is marked and as soon as you enter that territory, then well you become just another marked walker.
Now I said that we would talk about Morgan again.
I would like to say that Morgan will end up running into Arron and Daryl while their out on one of their recruitment runs but I'm afraid that probably just won't be the case. I think we will meet Morgan again in the finale of this season and it will be because he is a prisoner of The Wolves. Having followed the W on the trees Morgan ends up in the territory of the Wolves and they take him as prisoner. Like what the Terminus group did capturing you and sticking you in containers, The Wolves use use as a way of expanding their territory. They carve their mark into your head before you die and they let you wander as a walker to ward off anyone that wonders to far into their territory. So that is what I feel is going to happen with Morgan and thats how the group find him at the end of the season. How they come to find them is another thing entirely however.
Sasha has been going off the rails a bit lately hasn't she, so has Carol and Eugene is looking like he's not been doing much better. So lets say one of them leaves on a scouting run and they end up getting caught by another one of these walkers or run into what seems like an "innocent survivor" out there in the woods. When they suddenly get hit over the head and get knocked out leaving behind just a bit of clothing on the floor where they were taken. The group at Alexandria realise someones missing and they go out looking for them and thats where we meet the Wolves, meet Morgan again and the group have a new member to the community and they get to bond with their new neighbours of Alexandria. BOOM!
Just a thought and defiantly no guarantee that it will actually end up happening because this show is good at being unpredictable when it wants to be. But I would love to hear what everyone else out there thinks of this as my big comeback to the blog. With "The Wolves" seeming to be the big band of the season where do you feel that we will be going from here on out? Are we going to be looking at the demise of yet more characters? Will we meet Morgan again? And most important of all if Carol offers to make you more cookies say NO!!!
