Line 27:
* [[Artificial Limbs]]: {{spoiler|Dale}} gets a makeshift wooden leg after a zombie bite [[Life or Limb Decision|forces them to amputate one of his real ones]].
* [[Ascended Extra]]: Lilly, who only appeared for a couple of pages during the end of ''Made to Suffer'', is the protagonist of the novel ''[[The Walking Dead the Road To Woodbury (Literature)|The Walking Dead the Road To Woodbury]]''.
* [[Attack! Attack! Attack!]]: {{spoiler|The Governor thinks his superior numbers and a salvaged armored fighting vehicle will give him a quick victory; instead his mooks get slaughtered as they can't get past the prison fences and their marksmanship isn't as good as those holding the prison (Rick has made a point of training everyone). The prison only gets overrun when the tank is finally used to knock down the fences, but this also lets the zombies in.}}
* [[Axe Crazy]]: Several people.
* [[Badass]]: Quite a few characters, especially if they've survived for a good while. The most notable examples are probably Rick, Michonne, Andrea, Abraham and Tyreese.
Line 64:
* [[Hide Your Children]]: Averted. Several of the principal characters are minors. Also several of the background zombies.
* [[Hope Spot]]: {{spoiler|The potential cure for the plague waiting in DC? Eugene made up that story just so he could have a group protecting him. He's not even a scientist.}}
* [[How Much More Can He Take?]]: Rick vs {{spoiler|Tyreese.}}
* [[Humans Are Bastards]]: The residents of Woodbury, by and large, realize that the Governor is a [[Complete Monster]] but are willing to tolerate him because he keeps them "safe", and entertained. ([[What Do You Mean It's Not Political?]])
** The inevitable [[Zombie Apocalypse]] "humans are the real threat" has been used a couple of times; the Governor does far more damage to the cast than the zombies have, Thomas {{spoiler|decapitates two children,}} and then there's [[Rape As Drama|Abraham's back story.]]
Line 97:
* [[Nice Hat]]: Rick's sheriff's hat, which he gives to Carl; Dale's fishing hat.
* [[Nominal Importance]]: Averted constantly.
* [[No
* [[Off-Model]]: A very subtle occurrence. {{spoiler|Look at Rick's non-hand when he's taking the medicine in the bathroom of the abandoned house.}}
* [[Off With His Head]]: Done to quite a few of the zombies. Also {{spoiler|to Rachel and Susie Greene by Thomas}} and {{spoiler|to Tyreese by the Governor}}.
Line 115:
* [[Second Love]]: {{spoiler|Rick and Andrea, for each other.}}
* [[Shoot the Dog]]: Lots of characters. Frequently. Another reason why cast keeps on changing.
* [[Shout
** Rick and Shane find [[Ambiguous Syntax|a zombie that looks a lot like MC Frontalot]] eating a deer. He is wearing Frontalot's signature glasses and tie, and has a nametag that reads "FRONT."
** In the first issue we meet Morgan Jones and his son, Duane. Duane Jones was the name of the actor who played Ben in the original ''[[Night of the Living Dead (Film)|Night of the Living Dead]]''.
Line 140:
* [[Weapon of Choice]]: Rick's hatchet, Tyreese's hammer, Andrea's hunting rifle and Michonne's katana.
* [[We Can Rebuild Him]]: Averted in most cases. {{spoiler|Except for the Governor.}}
* [[Wham! Episode]]: Issue 48 may just be the whammiest episode of anything ever, essentially cutting almost all of the evolving plotlines dead in their tracks, and putting all of the rest on long-term hiatus, and killing off several major characters that the audience had come to take for granted would be the core cast in the long run.
* [[What Happened to Mommy]]: Hershel, when we first meet him. {{spoiler|Harboring his zombie son eventually results in the deaths of two more of his kids. [[It Got Worse|And then...]]}}
** {{spoiler|Morgan}} has taken this path as well.
