The opening credits for the show have been a long running Easter egg, as the title gets more and more decayed with every passing season, which reflects the state of the world and the walkers.

That continues this year, but there was an added fun twist with the iconography that appeared next to each actor's name. While some of these were obvious - a gun next to Andrew Lincoln, for example - there was an iron and furnace next to Jeffrey Dean Morgan's.

We didn't know exactly what it meant at first, but before too long we'd have seen him use that iron on someone's face, and throw someone else into that furnace.
