    Walking Dead Season Six finale - Predictions?

    in The Movie Forum

    Posted

    While it probably isn't Glenn I'm counting on them to borrow from the comic as to how the victim is chosen.

     

    Eeny-meeny-miney-moe.

     

    In the comic its Glenn of course, so I go to the panel where he is shown during the "picking" sequence.

     

    As the bat points to him (and Maggie) Negan says "...by the toe..."

     

    Ah, ha : )

     

    So I go to the end of last nights cliffhanger and pick up as Negan is nearing his choice...

     

    "catch a tiger..." (Daryl)

     

    "by the toe..." The camera cuts away! Motherf******!

     

    "if..." (Sasha)

     

    Ok so I go back to see who is between Daryl and Sasha.

     

    3 people.

     

    Maggie, Michonne, and Abraham.

     

    And since Negan says "HE'S taking it like a champ"...

     

    R.I.P. Abraham

    REMEMBERING THAT FIRST LCS...

    Zeno's in Chesapeake,Va

     

    I dont know how my mom found out about it but when I was around 9 years old we used to go out on Saturdays to run errands, and I'd get to stop by a 7-11 and pick up a comic or two.

     

    Memory is fuzzy but I think it was around October of 1978 when we pulled into Zeno's instead. I walked in that door and the ink smell was just,wow. I looked around at the stacks of books and the ones hanging on the wall...

     

    The 7-11 had a spinner rack but here I was surrounded :)

     

    I remember asking my mom if she could leave and pick me up later but that didnt fly. Can't recall which book I chose that day only wishing it was a hundred more I'm sure.

     

    Within a week in my ignorance of comic values I had made a Christmas list of books like the first 3 issues of Superman and Batman.

     

    Being a good mom she went back to Zenos and checked where she was told that the Superman 1 alone would run about 3 grand.

     

    We had a good laugh and that actually led to me getting a price guide for Christmas instead :grin: but I still wonder if they had access to a Superman 1 or they were just setting my newb self straight.

     

    Over 30 years later Zeno's is still there and so am I, waiting to pair 3 grand with a time machine.
