Oh man, that was perfect. I can't believe how 90's cheese it looked
I really hope that after the prison arc, the story completely diverges from the comic book
That's why I don't think that it would work, from a story perspective, to have Rick & gang settle all nice and peacefully in Woodbury, there would be too little tension and too little of them surviving and rebuilding if they did. The only way that it would work is if Woodbury gets nearly gest overrun and gets trashed so that it's lees like Mayberry and more like the prison in that it's tough inside and they still have to worry about food and other supplies.
I was very irritated when Beth fired the .38 inside the prison. I understand the storyline significance, but firing a gun in a concrete box would cause major hearing loss, possibly rupturing the inner ear, and although unlikely, brain damage from the concussive force hemorraging the brain.
I would've thought after all the angry letters the writers got from the initial prison scenes they would've got it right by now. :facepalm
Probably won't happen, but I envision ... After the Gov attacks and compromises the prison, Rick's group retreats to Morgan's stronghold then counterstrike winning the Woodbury battle; leaving Andrea to run the place. Of course, Rick's group couldn't live there because of too much friction between them and the surviving Woodburyians. As much as I'd love to see the Gov torn apart by zombies, he'll probably be cast out with any supporters unwilling to accept the new peace ... Living to make a reprise at some later time. Maybe have Beth and little ass-kicker stay in Woodbury (she's not much of a fighter anyhow) since they won't be safe on the road.
That's my 2 cents
I read the comic in trade format so I'm a few issues behind until they release the next one so I'm a little scared to really check it out in detail in the event someone bites it that I haven't read yet.
comics are way better then the series. The acting can sometimes be over the top and appear like a low budget soup opera.....
Live and learn. Apart from sheer common sense, Rick knew from the tank just how bad it was. Especially firing a .357 round. On the range that round is loud enough to make my ears ring.
I'm sure inside the prison it got loud but considering how big that room is, I highly doubt they would suffer the incredibly ill effects that Angus mentioned. If anything their ears would be ringing something fierce.
