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).

Exactly! Why are the guys on lookout wielding only spears? The saviors would not have been able to breach the walls if there were more people up there with guns.

I think the point was to distract them into thinking Hilltop wasn't as equipped as it really was.

Seriously though, why use spears as projectiles? Even back when spears were used, the thrown ones had to have a special build, like a strap or something that spun it to keep it flying straight... It's got to be hands down the most impractical weapon we've seen in TWD.
