3. Michonne
Like Daryl, Michonne is a fan favorite and also perfectly designed and equipped to survive in the world of The Walking Dead. Her introduction at the end of the second season still holds up as one of the most exciting moments of the show, and she has been one of the most faithfully adapted characters from the comics--right down to her armless and jaw-less walker pets she showed up with. And like Daryl and Rick, she has proven herself to be a smart and calculated survivor. She's obviously been through hell and back several times over and knows even more than the others, how to stay alive--even on her own. She doesn't need the group as much as they need her at this point. Most of all, I would be pissed if they killed Michonne because she gets the coolest walker kills with her samurai sword! It's become a staple of the comic book and the show.
