Rocky J Manero on Facebook asks: “ In regards to some things that have happened in the comics, would it be good to have some sort of webisodes or short spin off that details Negan in early apocalypse up to now, an how he came to name his bat Lucille?”
As a matter of fact, that already exists! Image Comics put together a miniseries in their preview magainze Image+ telling about Negan before the zombie apocalypse started and even revealing why the bat has the name.
Fans won’t need to spend a lot of money for a blind box from Image or collect the entire Image+ sequence to own them all, since it has been announced that Here’s Negan will be sold as a hardcover book containing all the segments from Image+.
Those interested can check out the product on Amazon, where it is scheduled for a release date on October 10, 2017 but is available for preorder now and will have all 72 pages from the ‘Here’s Negan’ storyline.
Expect more small nods to this series to come up in the comics, as fans who read ‘Here’s Negan’ already got a few small Easter Eggs in the graphic novels, but will likely have several more in the future.
