The Walking Dead Season 5: 7 Things To Expect

Well, they're at Terminus. Now what?

As the Walking Dead ended its record-shattering fourth season, fans were left with the touching reunion of Rick Grimes and his extended zombie apocalypse family, as well as the implication that Terminus was about to get their comeuppance. And even though we have to wait until October to see the resolution to this cliffhanger, that doesn't stop fans from speculating on their own about the upcoming fifth season. And with a wealth of source material available from Robert Kirkman's ongoing comic book series, it's somewhat easier to glean where the season might be headed. Given that the series follows nearly parallel to the events of the comics, sometimes shaking things up or swapping a character death, it's logical to use the comic as a rough guideline of where we might be headed. As the group left the confines of the prison due to the Governor's vicious attack, they've been on the road to a seemingly ideal sanctuary known as Terminus. While fans speculated it being a stand-in for the Alexandria Safe-Zone, a safe haven for the cannibalistic Hunters or even the Hiltop Colony, their journey to this mysterious place was speckled with some iconic moments from the comics and a few famous lines. Given that, we can start to use Kirkman's source material as a road map for things to come. Here are 7 things we can expect to see in season five of AMC's The Walking Dead, in some form or another.
