All Out War was just the beginning. Just when Rick and his band of survivors were making a nice life for themselves at Alexandria and the Hilltop, they are introduced to a new threat that made their encounter with Negan seem insignificant... The Whisperers. I won't spoil things for those that haven't read The Walking Dead #156, but tomorrow sees the start of The Whisperer War story arc that puts Negan back in the middle of the action.
Ahead of tomorrow's first issue in what is sure to be a game-changing story arc, we have a look at new artwork from Arthur Adams & Nathan Fairbairn that paints a bloody picture of what's to come.
The Whisperer War story arc covers issues 157 - 162 and each issue has an alternate cover from Arthur Adams & Nathan Fairbairn. When combined, it really gives a great look at the carnage to come. We've included the individual covers below, as well as a connected version, so you can the artwork in its full zombified glory. Also, in The Walking Dead's version of Where's Waldo, there are plenty of Whisperers spread throughout the covers. How many do you count?
