    Summary

    “'Make no mistake, man, this kid right here can take care of himself. He’d take you out at the goddamn knees if he needed to.' Negan said, almost proud. 'He learned from the best, after all.'
    'And I'm not twelve, I'm thirteen,' Carl insisted, sounding deeply offended. As deeply offended as someone could sound, anyway, with a honey roll stuffed in their mouth."

    Or, four chapters dedicated to the years Carl and Negan spend traveling the wastelands together after the prison falls, and two chapters in which Carl stumbles ass backwards into finding his father again.

    Summary

    Introspective peice on Carl post claimers episode, how he feels about himself, his family and his life (he tries to ignore all of this)

    > Alot of people only focus on what happened not Carls reaction to it which I think is a little disgustng, so heres him having some complex thoughts in a difficult world.

    Summary

    When the Gov'ner blows up the prison, Carl's lost in the confusion. Only able to find Judith, he's forced to run. On his own for three months with nobody but his sister and the clothes on his back, he fights to survive. Eventually, he is found by Daryl and Aaron fifty miles from Alexandria during their recruitment search. Reunited with his family, Carl struggles to fit in with a new normal. Pining after pride and trust from his father, falling in love, and hardening into the new world order, Carl leads by example on how to live again- with a ruthless, unhinged touch.
