  • Yes. Daryls man pain bores me tbh

  • I do like Dwight in the comics, even though he killed one of my favorite characters. But the TV series' Dwight is a REAL a-hole! I wouldn't mind if he were killed off, if it weren't for the fact that I like the plot point of the iron and his wife and all. But I do like the fact that Daryl's and Dwight's crossbows are the same! I think that's really cool!

  • I would rather see Daryl kill Dwight. Dwight is an A-1 asshole!

    Dwight seems to me to be Daryl's evil twin. So, I think a showdown between these two would be great.

  • Tbh, I'd like Daryl to continue, it's the TV Show though, we never really know what they'll keep from the Comics and what they won't, they could both die or live even.

  • me too. he's one of the characters originally from the tv series, so if they take him out, then the comics & tv would now be too similar.

    No, Dwight needs to stay Dwight. Important character in the comics and needs to stay negan's side of the wall

  • No, Dwight killed Denise, the main doctor of Rick's group, Tara's new girlfriend. No, Dwight needs to die, I don't care much for his comic counterpart.

  • Im thinking daryl will take over his storyline post all out war, unless they kill daryl beforehand

  • He looked nice in the first encounter, but then in ep 14...commentators/reviewers in youtube also say dwight's character as someone who'll switch to the winning side, that means he can backstab rick

  • Dwight is so awful I forget about his place in the comics. Yeah, I dont see him being friendly with our group. Much rather keep Daryl.

  • The comic character was way more likeable, the show version is just crap.

  • To be fair we haven't really seen much of Dwight. So far he's pretty much been how he first started out in the comics.

  • Nah, at this point in the comics dwight has been shown to be cunning and effective leader

    • Takes out abraham and kidnaps eugene on the way back to the base but gets overwhelmed by ricks whole crew

    This point in the show

    • Met cowardly running away from negans commmunity7
    • Acts like a moron and an arse while holding daryl hostage
    • Betrays daryl and returns
    • Appears again by accidentally shooting denise because his crossbow has too much kick
    • Gets overwhelmed despite having higher numbers
    • Ambushes daryl and other again, while shit talking shoots daryl

    In the shown he just seems like a weasly bitch, there is nothing scary or respectable about him at all. In the comics he was a villan and a fairly capable one

  • I hope someone else like Glenn gets the bat, then I wouldn't mind as much in s7 if Dwight got the crossbow back if Daryl were to die then. Dwight has been more of an unlikable a-hole in the tv series with some of the things he's said and done that wasn't in the comics.

  • Tbf they killed like 50 of his people

  • The same people who beat people to death just as an introduction. I have a hard time feeling sympathy for them.

  • Well, we have yet to see that. And I'm not even saying evil, just ruthless.

  • Well everyone hated Dwight when we first met him in the comics, and it seems everyone hates him in the show right now, but that could change, that could change.

  • Honestly, I think it's thanks to characters like Daryl, Beth, Sasha and Tara that help make the TV Show feel more unique, as well as characters like Carol and Abraham living past their Comic fates, the way they mix the deaths around keeps me on my toes x.x

  • he was an a-hole. i mean he and his friends got saved by daryl, and he returns the favor by killing the person who just looked up to daryl as a brother. then, he shoots him.

    but looking back at ep 15, they seemed very careless, with Daryl and glenn shouting, getting emotional, etc. they should have already been planning out a defensive strategy or at least moving out of Alexandria (but setting deadly traps inside to reduce the saviors' number) coz the Saviors are getting closer..

    i just cant see Dwight on the side of Rick, 'coz Dwight looks like the backstabber type.

  • At first I wanted Negan to kill Daryl but I feel like Daryl and Dwight could have a good arch with each other.

  • Remember this episode where Rick tells Daryl, "You're like a brother"

    That said, i just can't see Dwight, side by side with Rick.

  • People around here seem to be forgetting that Dwight is here to be Dwight, not Daryl's shitty replace. Dwight is his own character with an arc and character development—a lot of it.

  • There's not a thing they can do to make me like him.

    Well everyone hated Dwight when we first met him in the comics, and it seems everyone hates him in the show right now, but that could change, that could change.

    As the readers of the comics already know, Dwight betrays Negan and joins forces with Rick and the group. However, as much as I like Daryl, I feel like there's no way the two could ever co-exist, especially after Dwight shooting Daryl last episode. I agree with what BetterToSleep said, Dwight is his own character with his OWN arc and character development. He's not here to be Daryls replacement. I like Dwight (both counterparts), and I'm excited to see where the writers take his character.

  • 2 ugly sons of bitches right there holy shit

  • Doubtful

  • And with comic characters I hate them being replaced by existing characters...

    Such as people saying 'Enid is the new Lydia' 'Carol is the new Alpha' No! Just stop... I want comic and TV charaters to stay individual to themselves. Dwight is important to the story so needs to stay Dwight.

    If people such as Lydia and Alpha appear eventually they should appear as a NEW character. I never get the replace with existing character stuff...

  • Some people have been saying that Carol is going to return as Alpha, namely a known The Walking Dead YouTuber. There are so many ways that that prediction is flawed.

  • So many ways that is bloody stupid!!!! Alpha is Alpha not carol

  • I am really liking the Daryl and Dwight rivalry. But I feel like only one of them should survive by the end of this season, and I hope that person is Daryl.

  • No fuck that guy.

  • They're really great character foils.

    How about Jesus replacing Daryl? He became Rick's right hand man after Abraham died in the comics.

  • He's more like Maggies right hand man
