[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Actually, and please correct me if I am wrong, in the comics Carol dies and Maggie and Glen raise Sophia as their child.  Someone told me that is what happens in the comics.[/quote]

Carol on tv is like Andrea in the comics.  Yes, Sophia is adopted by Glenn and Maggie.  There is no Daryl in the comics.  Tyrese was a major character in the comics, Rick's right-hand man, and nowhere near the pussy he was on tv.  So basically Daryl replaced Tyrese.  Dale was a major character, had a relationship with Andrea, was bitten by a zombie on the shoulder and had his leg eaten by a group called the Hunters.  So Bob was a character created for the show who vaguely followed the fate of Dale ([i]I'm tainted meat![/i])  There was no Terminus in the comics but The Hunters were a group of roaming cannibals.

Those are just a few examples.  In short, you can't look at what happens to specific characters in the comics and equate that to their fate on the show.

But the general plot and locations of the comics have been followed on the show.  [/quote]

Thank you!  That's very interesting.  Do you think they are doing it this way so that people who are fans of the comic have something new to experience with the show, or that this is just what happens when you do an adaptation?  Or a little of both?  I'm still bummed about Tyrese.  Did he die in the comic?[/quote]

Tyrese is killed by the Governor right before the attack on the prison and Michonne kills his zombified decapitated head.  Sound familiar?  :)

I think they're doing the tv show this way so that people won't know exactly what's going to happen.  So I'll be happy to throw a SPOILER about Glenn in the comics, if you'd like, since it probably won't happen exactly that way on the show...
