NYCC 2017: Fear The Walking Dead and Walking Dead Will Crossover
Walking Dead is one of the most popular (and most divisive) comic book shows out there right now, and for good reason. The zombie apocalypse show has caught the minds and imaginations of viewers for 7 seasons now. And because of the popularity, Fear The Walking Dead, a prequel series, was made, and is going on its third season. The shows have existed in different places and technically different timelines, which made the idea of a crossover somewhat difficult…at the time.
At New York Comic Con, Robert Kirkman revealed that the two shows will indeed crossover…but not in the way you may expect. Instead of a full-on event like some comic book shows would do, he noted that a character from one show would appear in the other. Kirkman was very sly about giving numerous possibilities about how this would happen, and the character itself was not revealed.
The Walking Dead will return on October 22nd, leaving many to wonder whether the front half or the back half of the season will feature the crossover.
