The Walking Dead

Cosplay, celebrity appearances and more highlighted day 1 of Geek'd Con Rockford Saturday at the Mercy Indoor Sports Center.

Comic book lovers, pop culture enthusiasts and celebrities will come together for Geek'd Con Oct. 1-2 at Mercy Indoor Sports Center, 8800 E. Riverside Blvd., Loves Park.

We know (at least we hope) The Walking Dead will follow through on its promise to kill off a significant character in the Season 7 premiere, so why not promote four more? Yes, AMC’s flagship horror drama has now upped its count to 20 series regulars for Season 7, upgrading four Season 6 additions to main cast members.

Season 7 of The Walking Dead has some pretty immediate questions to answer for fans, but will otherwise introduce brave new worlds and characters to explore after the bat. We know at least one major character (and his iconic pet) to pop up, but how might The Walking Dead realize such a complicated, outlandish figure?

The Walking Dead has more mysteries to address in Season 7 than who fell under Negan’s bat “Lucille,” namely those mysterious armored friends encountered by Morgan and Carol. Comic fans likely know their identity, though the series itself may have leaked two fan-favorite additions for Season 7, who might roar our as early as the trailer.

If you love the Walking Dead and you've always wanted to experience what it would be like to be in a Zombie Apocalypse,you're in luck because The Walking Dead Experience is coming to Chicago this May!
