(At least dead bodies of characters that we’re familiar with, as opposed to nameless Hilltop residents and the like.)
So while the casualties are definitely coming, we might not see THAT many dead bodies before Negan and the Saviors face a proper defeat.
After all, we’re only at the beginning of September, and it’s very likely that the back half of Season 8 hasn’t even been fully formulated and written.
So there’s definitely a possibility that the first half of Season 8 could cap off with Team Family formally gaining the upper hand by “winning” the war.
