4. The Hunters
- Introduced: Issue 61

The zombie apocalypse brings out the worst or the best in people. For some, they rise up and become leaders or helpful parts of groups. Others take the low road and instead do anything they have to do in order to survive..no matter who it hurts. The Hunters are the latter.
After the prison fell, Rick and the survivors looked for a new place to call home. However, the Hunters were always looking for anything they could to make their life easier, whether it was supplies or other human beings.
Led by Chris, the Hunters decided that they needed meat to survive and any individual they met outside of their group could become their next meal. After hunting down a member of Rick’s group, Chris and the others were eliminated.
Key Moment: Dale went missing from camp and everyone got nervous. Their fears weren’t even close to what had actually happened, as the Hunters had captured him and cooked his one remaining leg for a meal. They were shocked to learn that Dale had been bitten by a walker and then left him as bait in front of Gabriel’s church to get a surprise attack on their potential victims.
Biggest Kills: None.
