'The Walking Dead' season 4: Comic book creator Robert Kirkman discusses what's ahead

'The Walking Dead' season 4 will have 'big stuff that people have been expecting, or that people have been anticipating from the comics,' Kirkman said. 'The Walking Dead' season 4 will premiere on AMC this fall.

Season 3 of The Walking Dead has come to a close, but just like the gruesome fate that potentially awaits each and every character, the series will return to stalk and torment those still counted among the living.

Screen Rant had a humble start back in 2003 as a place to rant about some of the dumber stuff related to the movie industry. Since then, the site has grown to cover more and more TV and movie news (and not just the dumb stuff) along with sometimes controversial movie reviews. The goal at Screen Rant is to cover stories and review movies from a middle ground/average person perspective.

But unlike the climax of season 2 ? which teased viewers with a tantalizing and somewhat-foreboding glimpse of the prison ? season 3 reached its conclusion with a slight sense of optimism (as Rick and the others welcomed the citizens of Woodbury into the prison), but no real indication of the direction The Walking Dead would be headed in season 4.

In a series of interviews, comic book creator Robert Kirkman discussed the season 3 finale, the fate of Andrea, Milton and the Governor, as well as what fans can expect from the core group of survivors, now that they seem intent on making a go of it as a community in the prison.

While there have been certain key deviations the series has taken from the source material, e.g., Andrea?s demise, Kirkman maintains that at least some of season 4 will focus on the dynamic between Rick and the recently-welcomed Tyreese.

Kirkman said:

?There?s some really, really cool and big stuff that people have been expecting, or that people have been anticipating from the comics, that will work into Season 4. To give a hint, I will say that we do have Tyreese and Rick, who are now united, which is a big moment for the comic book fans. There?s a lot of story that comes from those two guys being on the same side. We?ll possibly see a bit of that in Season 4.?

But Rick aligning himself with Tyreese won?t be the only change fans will see in the character. According to Kirkman, Rick?s brief interaction with the Governor and the environment he created in Woodbury has caused Rick to re-think some aspects of how he intends to survive in this zombie-infested world, and what it means now that he?s decided to no longer keep everyone at arm?s length or, as we saw in ?Clear,? ignore a stranger?s plea for help.

?It?s going to be different in a lot of ways. We?ll see a very different Rick Grimes for one. His experiences against the Governor and with the various things that happened to him in season three are informing his character in huge ways. We?ll see a lot of familiar elements from season three: we?ll see the prison, Rick and his group are still in the same place but those elements are all going to be radically different. I can?t really get into it but season four is going to be extremely different than season three in some very startling and cool ways.
