Norman Reedus character Daryl Dixon has been slowly but surely filling the gap left behind with the death of Nick Grimes, and he may well follow in his footsteps at least where the comics are concerned.

Viewers of the AMC show were both distraught and happy when they found out Andrew Lincoln was departing from the show, though it was renewed for a season 10.

The show waved goodbye to its main protagonist Grimes, played by Andrew Lincoln, as fans saw him being whisked away by a helicopter to an unknown location.

His departure from the show, like many other instances, did not follow Robert Kirkmans The Walking Dead comics canon but it doesnt mean the show departs fully from it.

Diehard fans of the comics will quickly point out that Daryl Dixon, who rose to prominence after Grimes left, is a character that was not plucked from the comics and was instead created specifically for the TV show.

With that in mind, how can the comic set up his death in the upcoming season 10 of the show?

In issue number 191 of the Kirkman comics, Grimes was shot in the chest by Sebastian Milton, marking what was mostly likely the end of his life, Comicbook reports.

Though the AMC show has a mish-mash of original and new characters in the mix, it is likely that if Daryl were to die, it would be meeting a similar fate.

That is if Angela Kang, the series writer, dips into the source material and transposes the canon storyline on Daryl, given that Grimes is no longer in the show.

The final episode of season nine appears to have set up Daryl is an important character when the show returns, with fans suggesting his survival could mean he becomes the next leader of Hilltop adding weight to the idea that if he were to go, hed go like canon Grimes.

The Walking Dead is scheduled to return to AMC in October 2019. And is available to watch on NOW TV.
