Season four spoilers: Bob Stookey, Entertainment Weekly Covers, Comic Con poster, Second Walker, Maggie and Glenn kissing

       BOB STOOKEY (Lawrence Gilliard Jr.)                  

                                   

A while back I did an article on this particular man, Bob Stookey, feel free to scroll down and learn some insight on exactly who his character was in the comics, and a little on who he'll become. If you haven't figured out already from the title, Lawrence Gilliard Jr. will be portraying a character by the name of Bob Stookey, a former army medic. In the novels and comic books he originated at Woodbury, but as you can see above, he is established at a Big Spot. It's obvious that this Big Spot is, or once was a post apocalyptic army base. It seems to be reasonably secure from walkers, but I doubt its as safe as the prison especially when your dealing with the living. 

According to Entertainment Weekly its safe to say that he will join up with Rick and company right off the bat. Entertainment Weekly says, Played by Lawrence Gilliard Jr. (The Wire), the TV version of Stookey is a former Army medic. But unlike the comic version, this Stookey does not hail from Woodbury. Instead, he is found by Daryl Dixon about a week before events pick up in season 4. “His back story is not entirely the same as in the comic and the novel,” explains new show runner Scott M. Gimple. “I think he’s seen things go bad over and over, and winding up in this stable place doesn’t shake him from his experience. He struggles with that.”

Apprehending the paragraph above, I would easily vouch that most of his base was wiped clean (killed), and Bob was one of the very few who survived. In the comics and novels he was an alcoholic, if he isn't intoxicated as soon as we meet him, I would expect him to start his drinking habits up very shortly in to the season.

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY SNEAK PEEK COVERS

More spoilers have rolled in! As you can see below we have three exclusive covers from Entertainment Weekly!
The first cover depicts Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) brandishing his Colt Python and a pocket knife. This will be the first of three collector's covers and will be in stores July 26th 2013. 
The second collector's cover portrays a fan favorite Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus) perched on his loud, but bad ass motorcycle. He is also wearing his unique winged leather vest, poncho, and gloves. This one also, according to the top right corner will also be released on July 26th.
The third and last collector's cover shows Carl Grimes (Chandler Riggs) with a hostile expression on his face. At the closing of season three many fans questioned whether the season four Carl would become more like The Governor or his father, Rick. Being that this is the only photo we have thus far of Carl, I'd speculate that he will, in the near future, gravitate closer towards The Governor's customs and conduct. This cover will also be distributed on July 26th.
Every cover has the exact same caption under the words "The Walking Dead", it reads, NEW ZOMBIES! NEW THREATS! GEAR UP FOR SEASON FOUR.  It seems with the casts hints and this magazine as if there will be new, scarier walkers this season. We also can infer that many new, devious characters, possibly from the comics will arise.

COMIC-CON POSTER

As you read above in my last branch, it's obvious that the walkers will be much more hazardous and scarier. I think that this poster may be the first glimpse as to what these "new walkers" will look like. As you can remark the walkers eyes are illuminated or terribly blood shot. Either way these walkers are much spookier than last seasons.

OUR SECOND LOOK AT A WALKER

                                        

Recently AMC has released a new photo of a female walker. As the last one this one is highly decayed and a bit bonier than last seasons corpses. With this being in black and white we can't see the color of their eyes (I predict they will be an orangy red). With the season four trailer premiering on Friday we should get many glimpses of what they look likE.

MAGGIE AND GLENN LOCKING LIPS

This is just a quick picture of Maggie and Glenn kissing from Entertainment Weekly, there isn't much in the terms of spoilers that we can get out of this. Except the fact that there love for each other will be just as strong as last seasons if not stronger. Last season, the writers made it clear that the two would marry in season four, if all goes well I'd expect them to be husband and wife by around episode four. You can see a gif on Entertainment Weekly's website.
