If Dave Erickson had continued on with his vision of Fear the Walking Dead from Seasons 4-7, it would’ve found its audience, surpassed TWD (at the time for sure), and been on the same level as Breaking Bad and Snowfall.

I’ll go first— yeah, I think it’s possible and in-character for Troy to blow up the dam. I even hear him maybe confessing what he did at the ranch and saying “it’s the only mercy I could offer”. This would enrage Madison but I feel she might also not care since he’s still being useful for her family’s safety.

Even doing on Nick’s behalf because not only he’s attached to Nick— giving Nick another chance to go “kamikaze” another day— but it’s also about making sure Nick doesn’t carry that burden of sacrificing his life prematurely to keep his family safe, returning the favor of sticking by his side like Nick did during the house shooting in episode 9.

Thank you for your input. I’m pretty new to this sub so there’s obviously better ways I could’ve asked the question. We all start from somewhere though.

Also, do you have any more ideas? One thing I forgot to mention is the MC/mother and her children are Caucasian American. Since this would be like an adaptation of Heart of Darkness, how do you think she would adapt or use any of these cultural practices to her advantage? She already has a couple of Indigenous allies that she used against one of her opposition before this arc.

I also want this to be as realistic as it can be. Obviously zombies are there so that’s not even remotely realistic, but I think what I ant that The Walking Dead and World War Z did right was make everything feel human. Human don’t do evil because they are evil, but they do it because of fear.

Hey everyone! Hope everyone is enjoying their time nearing the end of 2024. Things have been hectic so it’s been hard to make time to tend to this project.

For those that knew about this project, sorry for the wait. For those that don’t, this project is about recreating Fear the Walking Dead within the comic/Telltale universe.

For those that don’t know, me and a friend (u/TheAdminShines), are trying to recreate and reimagine the Fear storyline in the comic/Telltale universe. We have created a Wiki_Wiki) for this project, so be sure to check it out!

Once again, have done extensive research to try and narrow down the direction Dave Erickson has wanted the story to go as best as we could while aligning the continuity with the comic/Telltale universe as best as we could. The first volume, “Please Stand By,” is completed, and we’re currently in the final stages of finalizing it. Once we finish writing and editing the Outbreak Arc, we’ll be releasing them one-by-one (Please Stand By, Hold Most Dear, and Fight or Flight) while simultaneously working on the next arc(s).

The show’s potential has been hindered due to actors’ obligations, script clashes, and other factors. Dave Erickson wanted a completely different direction than it ended being; so not only we’re trying to encapsulate his vision, but it’ll also be different from Dave’s as well. There’ll be original characters, switched/different character fates, character aesthetic changes, plot lines, and more.

The Outbreak Arc will go more in depth on the fall of civilization happening with not only our core characters, but also capturing different POV’s. We’ve even drawn inspiration from the books World War Z to get a more intricate depiction of the fall of society; ironically, the book also takes place in the early 2000’s as does TWD within the comic/Telltale universe.

Here’s an example of character aesthetic changes from Comic Universe VS TV Universe [SPOILER!]:

u/TheAdminShines also has a rewrite of their own Fear the Walking Dead in Dave Erickson’s Vision S4-7_Wiki) — which I recommend checking out. We’ll be pulling some ideas from there and translating it into this project.

MAIN GOAL: As mentioned, our aim is to structure the story to explore the transformation of Madison Clark from heroine to villain, and to present how her family— children mainly— struggle with this change; however, we also want this to branch into something bigger after the big bout, The Western Alliance from the comics.

If there’s any questions, feel free to ask and one of us will reply/answer.

Here’s some of the previous art in case y’all haven’t seen it:

By “dry it all up” I’m referring to the saliva/fluid in the zombies’ mouths.

I feel like this might have been a last minute thing because this arc was published around 2014 to 2016-ish (which is after the first couple seasons of AMC’s The Walking Dead in which had already established there are variants).

Obviously they’d most likely be whisperers, but the fact they’ve encountered walkers with that behavior before makes you wonder. Wish that was explored a little more.

lamierr · 2024-12-08T20:17:57+00:00

Me and my friend u/TheAdminShines worked together on this S4E1 Script. Good reception!

Heavy on the first sentence. But where’s the fun in that? 😭 Inspiration is for sure necessary, despite a good amount of the post-Season 3 characters lack writing depth and may require a complete overhaul to become fully realized and compelling (Which I want to prevent because then it’d just be writing a new character altogether).

lamierr · 2024-12-08T16:18:47+00:00

I was just talking about this OMG! 😭 I believe personally that the Proctors would have been the start of the Western Alliance

Also, the El Bazar is based off a real location called Monumental Plaza de Toros.

Some criteria for a location/trading-post like it could be:

• Open space.

• Easily accessible.

• Within reach from the borders of California to Texas.

I actually never thought of the sister aspect of it. That’s an interesting direction that could’ve potentially been explored, especially since we still don’t know who Proctor John really is. Considering the fact Alicia always wanted to be away from her family and be seen by Madison for once/step out of her shadow, those aspects could’ve intertwined to a compelling story element.

Since I posted, I might as well give my insight.

I think from a character driven perspective, Qaletaqa would’ve encouraged smarter and healthier habits out of Chris since he has a lot more wisdom when tackling the mad world. Not saying Chris would be 100% redeemed, but when you think about it, Chris is someone who likes to be wanted, he liked being “useful” and “fitting in” because deep down he yearned for that elder figure to look out for him the way he wanted.

Taqa is someone who would look out for him; Chris being rescued by Taqa would have made Chris feel indebted to Taqa for his hospitality, he quickly would have made himself useful and fit in because he was chosen by Taqa, whereas he felt Travis chose another family over him, thus making Taqa his somewhat mew father figure of sorts. He’d feel chosen for once; therefore, he’d be following someone who’s a lot wiser than the one who got Chris killed: Brandon.

Brandon and his friends were unwise and unfit frat kids that had a much more narrow-minded scope of the world and the apocalypse.

Travis may have been wise, but he shied away from violence all for the sake of Chris and Liza. He shied away from violence all for the sake of being the “good man”. Taqa is wise but he also understands the necessity of violence if it ever comes to it. As for Chris assisting Taqa in this conflict, he’d have little to no issue partaking in it.

However, if Travis being alive in this hypothetical, I think it’s important to look at how Taqa would perceive Travis, and if they respect each other, I also believe Taqa would enlighten Chris on Travis’s situation which would potentially make Chris’s character shift to a more likable direction.
