The Walking Dead Season 5 Spoilers: New Promo Art Features Clues
Some new promotional art for the second half of Season 5 of The Walking Dead has been released, and fans are already scouring the image in search of clues for what's next on the AMC series.
The art shows the group on the move again, but it's unclear where they are headed. Fans of the comic book likely have a pretty solid guess, but we'll have to wait to see for sure. Rick and Daryl are also facing the viewer, while everyone else is walking away. We also see the map Morgan found at the church. Does this mean that Morgan has caught up with the group?
In related news, Seth Gilliam joined The Walking Dead in Season 5 as Father Gabriel Stokes, who had been surviving the zombie apocalypse in his church. Rick and his group came across him, and the man has been a coward and almost a complete liability ever since. But would the increasingly ruthless Rick actually kill him, particularly in light of his actions in the midseason finale?
The "Mega Buzz" column at TV Guide sheds some light on that possibility.
"One has to wonder exactly how long Father Gabriel, whom Rick already didn't trust, will stay with the group. 'In the new world, you stand on your own two feet and you are who you are. If you're a coward, we find out very quickly you're a coward,' Andrew Lincoln says of Gabriel foolishly leaving the church and almost getting Carl and Michonne killed. So will the increasingly lethal Rick keep a coward around? 'Rick has seen that this guy is not necessarily a villain,' executive producer Scott M. Gimple says. 'Gabriel is somebody who is just catching up to what the world is and his place within it. Rick still has a great deal of that humanity left. He isn't simply a monster, and I think that's good for Gabriel.'"
