The Walking Dead: 10 Greatest Jesus Moments
1. His First Appearance
Making a lasting impression on a show like The Walking Dead is a tall task for newcomers, especially because of the large amount of characters that already exist. This, however, wasn't an issue for Paul 'Jesus' Rovia, whose first appearance is not only the character's most iconic moment, but also one of the biggest moments from The Walking Dead's entire run.
Rick and Daryl were the first of our survivors to meet Jesus, an encounter that took place while the aforementioned pair were out on a supply run during a Season 6 instalment - which was aptly titled The Next World. After bumping into Rick, Jesus attempted to convince the series protagonist that he was merely running from the dead, and meant no harm. The long-haired newbie introduced himself, before setting off.
However, there was no oncoming herd of walkers. Jesus had played the pair, having bumped into Rick in order to swipe his keys. By the time Rick and Daryl had worked this out, Jesus had already set off with the supply truck, which culminated one of the most spectacular scenes in the show's history.
There's no doubt that Jesus left an impression on viewers with this unforgettable debut - one that certainly promised great things for a character so full of potential. Unfortunately, a lot of that potential will forever remain untapped.
