Take a look at some preview panels from issue 178 of The Walking Dead comics plus get all the info you will need to get ‘New World Order Part 4 of 6’.

A new installment in The Walking Dead comic book series is set to be released on April 4, 2018 to continue the story of the survivors learning more about The Commonwealth and recovering from The Whisperer War.

However, the New World Order storyline has a lot of fans on the edge of their seats wondering what is next for their favorite survivors and what impact the community run by Pamela Milton will have on Rick and the people from Alexandria, The Hilltop, The Kingdom, and The Sanctuary.

Thankfully, Image Comics and Skybound have released their preview panels from issue 178 titled ‘New World Order Part 4 of 6’. Here is the page as shared on the Facebook account of The Walking Dead artist Charlie Adlard:

Let’s take a look at each of the panels to see what is happening and what each one could mean for the story in issue 178.

The first panel shows Maggie and Dante together in a house. Maggie seems to be looking at a map or other large piece of paper while Dante stands with his arm around her. It is likely he is attempting to be affectionate with her but gets shot down since she tells him to stop. Maggie is either still a little uncomfortable with her dating situation or has more pressing needs that need more attention.

In the middle panel, Siddiq is trying to explain to Mercer and George that he was looking for a bathroom when he walked in on their talk about how Sebastian should be dealt with in some kind of way. He says he didn’t hear anything, but the two soldiers from The Commonwealth will obviously need to do something since they know he overheard everything.

The final panel shows Michonne sitting on the floor next to Elodie in a house at The Commonwealth. Elodie still seems highly emotional but Michonne is struggling to understand what the issue is. This could be a continuation of their discussion about Elodie’s little sister, but likely has to deal with a different situation…most likely one happening at The Commonwealth.
