I don't know if Adlard or Kirkman made these references on purpose, but let's say they did;

 

Will Carl slay his Goliath, Negan?

 

Is baby Hershel the future savior?

 

132 is most certainly intentional. Reminds me of a combination of various versions. But this one stands out to me.

Raphael's "The Small Cowper Madonna"

Nice find, yes that looks like it could have been used as a reference.

 

I meant to ask Kirkman about it at NYCC today but his line was huge and I was with 3 impatient nephews lol.

cool bit of info straight from Robert to me when i asked him to sign my book "RIP Bernie"

 

David, who was the other person that Carol burned to stop the spread of the illness, that character was initially named Bernie

 

Since he was a a "throw away" character, that would be BURNED to death, "Bernie" wasnt going to work as his name, so it was changed to David.

 

Comic Book Bernie was then named Bernie because Robert had the name in mine from earlier.

 

cant make this mess up :)
