The Walking Dead: 10 Comic Spoilers We Already Know About Season 6

9. Threat Of The Wolves/Scavengers

Throughout Season 5, we were given hints to an adversarial group called the Wolves. And though they were a new creation for the TV series, it seems fairly likely that they€™ll stand in for the Scavengers, a rogue group in the comics led by a man named Derek.

As the very likely human antagonist for the first half of the season, Derek makes a brief, yet meaningful appearance in the comics. Showing up at Alexandria and demanding that his group be granted entry, he threatens his way in via a hidden sniper, only for them to be out-sniped by Andrea, or in the show€™s case, Sasha. The significance of his death is that those fatal shots draw an immense herd of zombies to Alexandria.

The threat of the Wolves will likely last a few episodes in the early part of the year, and it€™s more than likely that they will ultimately serve a function of uniting Alexandria against an outside force only for that false victory to be the catalyst to a subsequent defeat.
