Start for freeWelcome to a fresh dive into the zombie apocalypse with The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live. This new chapter marks the return of the beloved character Rick Grimes, whose story of survival takes a dramatic turn as he finds himself in the midst of the Civic Republic Military (CRM), a stronghold of civilization amidst chaos. Here's everything you need to know about Rick's latest adventures, his attempts to escape the CRM, and his eventual reunion with Michonne.
Rick Grimes: The Survivor's New Challenge
Rick Grimes, once believed to have sacrificed himself for his family, is alive. Picked up by a mysterious helicopter, Rick's journey introduces him to the Civic Republic, a fully functioning city with 100,000 inhabitants, electricity, running water, and a formidable military force. Unlike any community we've seen before in The Walking Dead universe, the Civic Republic represents the last vestiges of organized society in post-apocalyptic America.
The Civic Republic's Secretive Nature
Rick quickly learns that the Civic Republic has a strict policy of secrecy. Their survival strategy hinges on the outside world remaining oblivious to their existence. As a new consignee, Rick faces a six-year service on the outskirts before he can earn his way into the city proper. But Rick's heart lies elsewhere - with his family, Michonne, and daughter Judith.
A Bold Escape Attempt
Despite the odds, Rick's indomitable spirit shines through as he plots his escape. His first attempt, a daring move that involves cutting off his own hand to join the one-handed Walking Dead Club, unfortunately, ends in immediate recapture. However, this act catches the eye of Lieutenant Colonel Okafor, who sees something special in Rick and offers him a chance to join the military. This presents Rick with a paradoxical opportunity: to gain the freedom he seeks, he must dive deeper into the heart of the Civic Republic.
Inside the CRM
As Rick integrates into the CRM, he encounters Major General Beal and Lieutenant Colonel Okafor, who reveal the complex dynamics within the military. Rick learns of the CRM's role in the destruction of Omaha, one of the three major American cities that had survived the apocalypse, raising questions about the true intentions of the CRM.
Okafor's Secret Plan
Okafor, resonating with Rick's moral compass, shares his concerns about the military's darker undertakings and his plan to rise through the ranks to instigate change from within. This aligns with Rick's own values, setting the stage for an intriguing alliance.
The Reunion with Michonne
In a dramatic twist, Rick's story intersects with Michonne's once again. Just as Rick finds himself in a dire situation, Michonne appears, revealing that their paths are on a collision course. Their reunion, filled with tension and unresolved questions, sets the stage for an enthralling narrative to unfold.
