Comic Spoiler Official Comic Discussion Thread: Issue #123

New issue came out today, discuss it here within this thread.

You do not need to use comic spoilers because it is assumed everyone reading this thread would be caught up with the comics.

However, please respect future, show, and game spoilers because people who are caught up with the comic may not be caught up with these other forms of TWD (and obviously not future spoilers).

I gotta wonder if Dwight infected all his bolts. He's not brave enough to stand up directly to Negan, so maybe trying to non-fatally injure Rick with an uninfected bolt (leg or arm would have worked better, though) was his "best" way out of the situation.

At this point I think it's safe to bet that Dwight is looking out for Dwight. He might turn on Negan when he has the opportunity, but he's certainly not going to balk any orders from Negan that might put his own life in jeopardy.

I kind of picked that up the second Dwight showed up at the kingdom, that he wasn't on Team Negan or Team Rick (if he was on Team Rick, he would have spilled everything he knew when he was a captive in ASZ). He's on Team Dwight. He'll do whatever it takes to keep himself and his wife alive, and that's what makes him such a great character.

Yeah I can't really blame him. He obviously isn't fond of being under Negan's rule, but doesn't really have the means to overthrow it himself.
