The Walking Dead Season 6: 9 Things You Need To Know About Jesus

8. His Introduction

Jesus' introduction in the show plays out a bit differently to how it does in the comics, probably due to the 'wild card' addition of Daryl. Here, he ambushes them when they're out on a supply run, but does it in a very clever way, tricking them into thinking walkers are coming, setting off some firecrackers to distract them, and stealing their keys. In the comics, it's Michonne and Abraham he runs into. He takes Abraham prisoner, and demands that Michonne bring her leader - in other words, Rick - to him. But when that happens, Rick knocks him out, and takes him back to Alexandria as a prisoner. The specifics may be different, but the end-goal is the same: get him to Alexandria, and ready to make a deal with Rick. It suggests that they may be sticking pretty closely, or at least as close as possible, to his story in the comics.
