The Walking Dead: 10 Things That Happen After The War With Negan
6. Carl Grimes Finds Love In An Unlikely Place
Carl really mans up in the story arc which follows All Out War.
He strikes up a weird friendship with Negan while the villain is behind bars, the whole time maintaining that he hates him, and goes on to leave the Alexandria Safe-Zone to become a blacksmith's apprentice in Hilltop Colony.
But, like his pal Negan, Carl has a brief stay behind bars following an encounter with two bullies who he beats almost to death with a shovel. During his incarceration, he meets a fellow prisoner named Lydia and the pair strike up a friendship.
After doing their time, the two become an item and Lydia takes Carl's virginity, hot on the heels of a comic panel that will haunt you for the rest of your life. Glenn's grisly death is nothing compared to seeing her lick his empty eye socket.
Although Rick's son and his girlfriend have a meaningful and lasting relationship, her affiliation with the series' new villains makes things complicated.
