The Walking Dead ‘Warning Signs’ panel discussion
By Sonya Iryna
Should Maggie Confront Negan?
Maggie and Daryl are going to Alexandria to confront Negan. Do you think that will bring Maggie the closure she needs?
Sonya says:
"I think that Maggie feels like she needs to do it, but I don’t think it will bring her any closure. Only killing Negan will do that and even that might not. Nothing she does or says will change that Glenn is gone. Eventually she will have to try and move on for her own peace and for Hershel’s well-being. Even though it would be immensely satisfying to see Maggie kill Negan the best thing she can do now is focus on the future."
Sara says:
"I am really looking forward to seeing a big scene between Maggie and Negan. They haven’t had a chance to talk to each other, and I definitely think it’s needed. While I totally understand why Maggie wants to kill Negan for what he did to Glenn, I’d be interested in seeing if a conversation between the two of them would make her change her mind."
Sarabeth says:
"I don’t think Maggie will ever find the closure she needs, simply because you can’t get over that kind of loss and trauma. However, killing Negan won’t solve it either. As she saw with Gregory, killing Gregory only led to more death. No matter how justified those deaths are, she’s trading one set of grief for another."
