A question I've always had

Hey guys. So i was just wondering, Did they ever say wich canon this follows? Because i have played an replayed and I seriously can't tell. There's a few references to that comic but that's it.

    A dev stated that it follows neither the TV show canon nor the comic one, but it's closer to the comic one.

  • Really? When?

    The official FAQ for season 1 says that they see the comics as canon.

    Is this game based on the comic books or the TV show?

    We see the comic books as canon.


    Another to note is the Michonne mini series will be featuring comic Michonne so i think that pretty much confirms that the comics are the canon timeline.

  • Yeah i know about the mini series. But that didn't confirm the main telltale series as comic canon. So im glad you told me thanks :)

    "The game IS NOT CANON with either the comic or the TV show."

  • I believe that's outdated, as per Kevin's comments linked above.

    I forgot about that thread, there seems to be a lot of confusion as to whether or not it's canon to the comics as the comic version of Glenn and Hershel both appear in season 1. I guess the only way we could find out for sure is to see any any game characters or references make a appearance in the mini series or if anyone from the mini series appears in season 3.
