Rick Grimes have assembled survivors for an oncoming Whisperer War that could be their ultimate doom!

For long, Rick and his allies were living in peace and harmony in a post-apocalyptic world that was taken over by Walkers long ago. In between they dealt with cannibals, marauders and groups of Saviors but they always managed to come out on top but The Whisperers seems like a whole new level of endgame for these survivors.

Just from crossing territory, their leader Alpha slaughtered a dozens of friends and loved ones to put their head on stick, thus marking their border and sent a message. Thinking Rick Grimes is responsible for his parents' death; one grieving brat decides to free a prisoner named Negan who has been an enemy with Rick to take revenge.

Negan however sieges this opportunity not to exact vengeance but to earn trust and so he goes out his way to infiltrate among The Whisperers and even managed to kill Alpha. Dwight, Heath Laura and Magna spots him a week later after his escape, the former wanted to instantly shoot him on sight but ultimately took him to Rick instead.

Despite seeing Alpha's head on the table, Rick and Andrea are still unwilling to trust him but agreed to give him an isolated outpost to live rather than throwing him in prison once again. If anything from his end seems suspicious, he will be killed.

The Walking Dead – The Whisperer War | Comics

Beta finds a lifeless corpse of Alpha and he angrily informs other group members that there would never be another Alpha again and decides to launch an all-out attack on survivor communities. From Hilltop, Maggie sends over a large number of her people for war but Carl and Lydia are advised to stay there by Michonne just in case.

Dwight and his army take position while sending Gabriel to a nearby water tower to keep watch on way. Seeing a massive herd approaching, he panics and busts up his leg trying to climb down from there. In his pleading cry for help, Beta comes to him and slits his gut open, allowing Walkers to feed on him as The Whisperers march forward.

Laura comes rushing to report a movement and they prepare to open fire when a herd is closer. When they start shooting, roamers starts falling but hiding among them were Whisperers that caught them off guard and stabbed many. Magna and her team came just in time pouring more fire and more help arrives from Kingdom as well.

Beta manages to reach to Dwight by staying behind a wall of Walkers and almost gets the drop on him through sneaking only for Negan to intervene to settle their hatred for each other. He finally gets his hands on Lucille during an intense fight but it led to an unfortunate end for him but they all managed to clear out with teamwork.

Beta is taken away from battle and rest of their group is scattered and being hunted down by Alexandria militia. Dwight shoots a Whisperer with an arrow on his head and removes his skin mask to put on his own face. They managed a couple more for everyone and successfully infiltrated a herd to decimate from inside.

That night, The Whisperers attack Hilltop with flaming arrows and Carl wakes his people up warning about a spreading fire. Lydia takes a stand at frontline to fight her former group and shoots many as Carl goes to help others. Meanwhile, Sherry plans to round up her remaining followers in Saviors in opposition to Rick and his community.

As her memories keeps changing, Wonder Woman cannot even rely on her Lasso of Truth and will seek help from one of her greatest enemies.

In her vision, Wonder Woman starts seeing memories that she cannot recall properly. She is confused about the story of her birth as if she was forged from clay on the shore of Paradise Island by Hippolyta out of her wish for a daughter or is she truly the daughter of Zeus after all and this bothers her.

She looks at the helm of the God of War, which she is, yet she hesitates to believe even that. Her time with the Amazons of Themyscira and her mother reminds her of memories she still cannot verify as it keeps changing.

Diana then crushes the helmet between her bare hands, which is also an impossible feat for anyone. So, she uses the Lasso of Truth on herself and it confirms that she's been deceived and she had a brief glimpse of her other counterparts from the Multiverse. Leaving her costume behind, Wonder Woman takes new attire and goes to Olympus seeking truth.

She faced off a few Automatons there created by her brother Hephaestus and after a brief fight with those sentries; she realizes that this is not even the real Olympus at all. This whole entirety is just another lie that is being fed to her.

When attacked by them, she took all of them down with ease and then is confronted by her former friend Barbara Ann Minerva AKA Cheetah.

She savagely greeted Diana with claws and pinned her to the ground. Upon restraining her with some efforts, Diana then explains her reasons for which she has been forced to turn to her arch-enemy to seek help finding her home Themyscira and how they can both help each other now.

Meanwhile, Steve Trevor and his boys were trying to take down a local warlord named Andres Cadulo, who is about to resurrect Urzkartaga; an ancient plant-god, to help him conquer world and he is also the person responsible for creation of Cheetah.

Commander Etta Candy of A.R.G.U.S. instructs Master Chief Steve Trevor and her boys to get to Urzkartaga before Andres Cadulo does and so, the team heads to their objective therefore. They all were eventually captured at the hands of Cadulo's men and Steve was chosen by Cadulo to be sacrificed as a vessel for Urzkartaga.

After battling a small horde of Boudas together, Wonder Woman and Cheetah talked it out about working on their differences. While still blaming her for being unable to prevent what has happened, Cheetah asks Diana to help her kill Urzkartaga to remove the curse that is upon her and has turned her into this feral state permanently.

These two then breaks into the secret holdout where Cadulo has kept Steve and his boys captive and frees them from Boudas before finally facing the menacing Urzkartaga in battle.
