And even after reading the entire series since the beginning I don't buy all the post-mortem Rick praise, seemed pretty heavy handed and hollow.
    Under Rick's leadership, several communities were freed from despotism and joined a larger community forged by his people, then made contact with another large community, and was instrumental in staving off a revolt. Then he died, and in dying was honored by both communities as it founder. Can you say that Washington really did more? I think not. GW was just a General.

    Yeah, it totally rings true to me. Rick's death was the cement that held everything together. It makes sense.

    I am just now on Issue 81. Am looking forward to seeing how they get all the roamers away from the fence. This series has been really good and I am glad I started to read it. I love it much more then the tv show.

    I havnt read the issue yet but I have no problem with Rick dying. Kinda like Mosses. Lead his people to the promised land but not destined to live there.
