The Walking Dead: 15 Most Shocking Comics Moments
6. Heads On Fences
The Whisperers have gained a lot of traction and excitement amongst the TV audience for justifiable reasons: they are a horrifying evolution of the human plague. Dressed in the skins of walkers and denying their human attributes, the Whisperers are a terrifying image of where humanity might end up.
Twisted leader Alpha shows just how bottomless the well of sadism is when, under the banner of peace, she infiltrates and begins to pick off our survivors one by one. Back at the Whisperer Camp she meets Rick and goes for a nice little stroll with him to discuss terms.
Here, she makes it clear that if the people of Alexandria stay on their side of the demarcated lines then her people will stay out of their territory. Sounds perfectly reasonable so far.
How did Alpha demarcate the borders? With the heads of Rick’s friends, of course. The people that Alpha had slaughtered were now stuck on sticks all along the border, including the pregnant Rosita and long-time favourite Ezekiel.
