This issue kicks off what promises to be the most significant Walking Dead storyline since "All Out War" several years ago. And while "The Whisperer War" involves another major clash between opposing factions, this opening chapter makes it clear that readers shouldn't expect Robert Kirkman and Charlie Adlard to rehash what's come before. If there's anything clear about "The Whisperer War," it's that nothing is clear.
Case in point, while I took last issue's surprise twist to mean that Negan was planning to replace Alpha as head of the Whisperers, this issue suggests that Negan may still be on Rick's side. He's certainly making a loud show of it, anyway. This latest wrinkle accomplishes several goals at once. It sparks open war between the Whisperers and the survivors at Alexandria. It obscures the role Negan is ultimately meant to play in this conflict. And it downplays the notion of this being a battle between good and evil. If anything, it paints Rick and his allies as the aggressors.
