Possible spoilers for The Walking Dead TV show, as well as details from the comic series are below.

After the mother lode of head-squishing that The Walking Dead presented to viewers with its Season 7 premiere, the zombie drama will look to brighten things up a bit in the next episode with the introductions of King Ezekiel and new location The Kingdom. These narrative additions come straight from the comic books, but we're wondering if a big change from the source material is also on the way, with Carol taking over one of Michonne's storylines: her romance with Ezekiel.
