The Walking Dead: 10 Characters Who'll Survive Until The End
6. Carol
If Carol were anything like her comic counterpart – who was a bit of a sad sack who ended up committing suicide via zombie bite after Tyreese cheats on her and Lori and Rick rebuff her suggestion of a polyamorous three-way affair – she wouldn’t really be a big miss on the show should she die.
But TV show Carol Peletier is a different beast entirely and we’ve seen her evolve from downtrodden victim of domestic violence and grieving mother to a warrior survivor – the kind of character that blows up cannibal compounds, roasts Saviours alive, and mercy kills those who pose a potential threat to her loved ones.
Even Robert Kirkman has said the TV incarnation of Carol is a far better character than the one he crafted in the comics and seems reluctant to see her killed off. Plus, she’s such a rich character that there’s plenty of potential plots and development to fuel her onwards for a good few seasons.
