    Ok the time has come...Issue 111 is out and it's good. This entire thread potentially has spoilers so be warned.

    To kick off this discussion, I'd like to mention that Negan presented us with a lot of things and most of them are contradictory. I'm starting to like him even more but I'm losing my conviction that he's the bad guy. He can't be all bad anyway...he gutted Spencer...that right there was worth the price of admission.

    Well, he killed Glenn and keeps a harem of wives that otherwise have to work for their survival, though the extent of how awful the work is has not been revealed. He's seems unhinged, but at the same time he knows what he's doing. He's the bad guy.

    I actually wanted a bigger death, but I liked that death scene. Once Spencer started talking with him, I knew. I especially knew when he said "you have no guts".

    It was a pretty good issue, though. Better than recent ones.

    Well, we aren't out of the woods yet, but it seems like that death was the one on both 111 and 112 covers.

    Haha, I did not see that coming. Poor Spencer, he was sooo stupid.

    I know he killed Glenn and by extension Abraham...but I just love his twisted morality. He gutted spencer then asked someone to clean up the body before a kid sees it.

    No...she'll probably think the same thing I did...that Negan can't be all bad if he took out Spencer

    Definitely, I see no way how what is coming would not end up with heavy casualties, probably on both sides.

    YEEESSSSSS!!!!! good riddance Spencer. all this build up to the war is fantastic. and im enjoying the depth of Negan. not just some guy who went completely insane like The Gov, but like others have said hes got some twisted sense of ethics. cant wait to see what goes down when Rick n co return.

    now if RK can just take out Gregory...

    it just struck me, do yall think RK killed off a character most people dislike (Spencer) in order to kill someone most people like in the near future? im still worried Michonne's time is dwindling. that whole, Michonne was smiling and her sleeping with the sword stuff just seemed like more development to prepare for her death

    He very unceremoniously took out Abraham and Glenn, so I don't think he'd bother setting us up like that.

    Spencer always annoyed the living hell out of me, I'm so glad Kirkman finally wrote him off. But it bothers me how he ended like the biggest piece of shit ever, it would have been way better if he actually tried to kill Negan like many fans predicted (and I expected while reading the issue). His character was introduced just to annoy, like TV Ben or currently Gregory in the comic.

    its just a thought. i do think i sometimes try to look for foreshadowing and that type of stuff when it may not be there. kinda human nature to try anticipate that kinda stuff i guess

    im glad he went out like the bitch he was. plus you need those characters that arent bad guys but still annoy and piss you off. like you said, Gregory and at times Father Gabriel and the worst of all imo, Donna.

    I can't stand annoying characters but I understand that they are necessary for the story, not everyone can be like Jesus or Tyreese. Still, it would give his character at least some depth if he tried to kill Negan but instead he failed miserably. Even the look on his face while lying dead looked retarded.

    Man, great issue! I still feel like Negan will kill someone else during his little stay in Alexandria, though.
