The Walking Dead season 8 key art released at San Diego Comic Con

The key art for season 8 of The Walking Dead has been released at Comic Con International in San Diego and it features Rick, Negan, Daryl, Maggie, and more!

For fans of The Walking Dead, San Diego Comic Con can feel like a major holiday. Many viewers of the hit shows, gamers, and readers of the comics wait patiently for any information about the hit zombie survival franchise.

Of course, the big moment from this annual event is the release of the trailer for the upcoming season, but there is a lot more to look forward to, such as key art, exclusive collectibles, panels, and much more.

AMC recently released their key art for season 8 of The Walking Dead on the show’s official Facebook page and it was just as magnificent as many fans would have hoped it would be.

The major focus of this piece is the showdown between Negan and Rick. Of course, this is because war is set to happen between The Saviors and the surrounding communities for control of resources and freedom from oppression.

In between the two leaders, many of the popular characters from the show appear. The four featured people are Daryl, Michonne, Maggie, and King Ezekiel, representing the 3 communities fighting together against Negan’s soldiers.

Here are the others included in the art:

Unlike the key art from previous seasons, there doesn’t appear to be any huge clues about what to expect from the season which can be taken away from the art. Instead, it is just a great preview for All-Out War!
