Unsurprisingly, The Walking Dead’s return is going to pick up with what’s going on with Carl.
For anyone who missed the midseason finale, now would be a good time to hop out of the story to avoid any spoilers.
Based on the captions paired with the picture, this moment appears to happen early on in the midseason premiere as Rick and Michonne appear determined to make Carl’s eventual demise as comfortable as possible.
While he’s certainly not in the best of shape, EW has another picture from the return featuring Carl in a cot, which appears to tease he’s got a little more time following his revelation in the sewer to talk to Rick and others before he bites the dust.
