deviates from the comics a good bit but the source material is the best place to look for an accurate outline of what to expect in the TV series\u0027 future.

On the following slides we\u0027ll run through some MAJOR SPOILERS from the comics which will likely be making their way to TV in the next 16 episodes or so. You\u0027ve been warned.

The first sign of Spencer\u0027s season 7 death came in the trailer which dropped at Comic Con last month. Spencer is seen standing up to someone saying that Alexandria should have taken a deal with the Saviors when they had the chance.\u00a0

Spencer already blames Rick for the his parents\u0027 deaths. Now, with another victim coming from Rick\u0027s overconfidence and attack on the Saviors, Spencer is definitely questioning Rick\u0027s leadership more than ever. In the comics, Spencer despises Rick so much that he goes behind his back and offers to help Negan kill him. Negan\u00a0doesn\u0027t like a liar or a cheat, so he slices Spencer\u0027s stomach with a knife and laughs as he finally finds the kid\u0027s guts.

We caught a glimpse of Maggie\u0027s grip on leadership at the Hilltop in Season 6 but going forward her position on the leadership ladder will only rise.\u00a0

In the comics, Maggie emerges as a leader at the Hilltop as Gregory\u0027s cowardice becomes more transparent. As the community questions Gregory and Maggie clearly has the ability, skill, ruthlessness, level-headedness, and charisma to take on the role, the Hilltop folk start to get behind her.

Whether we see Maggie emerge as the leader in Season 7 or further down the line is to be seen.

Believe it or not, Dwight actually becomes one of the good guys.

Yes, you really hate him now and want him dead. It\u0027s a reasonable desire. On TV, the character killed Denise and shot Daryl. Those are two big strikes. However, in the comics, the character finds redemption and is largely troubled by his actions.

During the March To War, Dwight decides he will defect against Negan. The character offers Rick insight on the Saviors and their Sanctuary and even spares Rick\u0027s life on the battlefield at one point. There was always a big question mark regarding whether or not Dwight could be trusted but ultimately he proved his worth to Alexandria during the war.

A couple of characters make the ultimate sacrifice in the early stages of

The closest television counterpart to Holly is Sasha. When Abraham leaves Rosita in the comics, he moves on with Holly. Many suspect Sasha\u00a0will go on to fill Michonne\u0027s\u00a0relationship role with Ezekiel, but that is to be seen.

In any case, Holly drives a school bus into the Sanctuary in an effort to break down Negan\u0027s\u00a0walls. She is taken hostage and returned to Alexandria with a bag over her head, only to revealed as being a walker and biting Denise. The moment will almost certainly be brought to television in one way or another, but which character plays the role of Holly is unknown.

A similar series of events went down in the first half of

\u0027s\u00a0second season but we\u0027re still counting on it be adapted to

Ezekiel\u0027s tiger, first seen in the Comic Con trailer, also makes the ultimate sacrifice. While she is immune to the zombie virus, she is not immortal. The loyal cat sacrifices herself to save Ezekiel\u0027s life on the pages. We do hope Shiva lasts more than one season, though.

Perhaps the most iconic moment from The Walking Dead comics is Glenn\u0027s death. The shocking moment marked the changing of power in the apocalyptic world as Rick Grimes was knocked off of his high horse and bent to the will of Negan.

Many fans suspect the show will follow the comics, having Negan\u00a0bash Glenn\u0027s skull to start things off while others have theories of their own. Some even suspect that Negan\u00a0will kill more than one of our beloved survivors to start things off.

In any case, the comic books saw the brutal demise of Glenn in these moments - something so iconic and infamous that it would be shocking to stray from when adapted to television.

Honestly? In this case, Tara makes more sense to take Holly\'s place (though why she has to at all is beyond me, Holly in the books was a great character but I do love Tara).  She lost Denise, and would be so pissed off that what book Holly did is totally something she would do.
