Fear The Walking Dead confirmed to crossover with The Walking Dead

Robert Kirkman dropped a bombshell on the crowd at New York Comic Con by announcing that The Walking Dead will tie-in with Fear The Walking Dead!

Ever since Fear The Walking Dead was announced as the companion series for AMC’s flagship zombie drama series, fans have been wondering if there would ever an overlapping between the two programs.

Since they are both set in the same universe in different parts of North America, there always was a chance that there could be a tie-in. However, the executive producers have always said there is no plan to blend the two shows or crossover.

That situation changed at New York Comic Con when Robert Kirkman took the stage to talk about the two shows and dropped a bombshell on the crowd in attendance. Here is that announcement according to the official Twitter account of The Walking Dead:

While it doesn’t appear to be a full-fledged crossover and it may not be a character that sticks around for a significant amount of time, this is still huge news for fans of the two AMC zombie drama shows.
