Fans of "The Walking Dead" Season 7 should start to calm down after the death of Glenn Rhee (Steven Yeun) in episode 1 titled "The Day Will Come When You Won't Be." They can except that things will get lighter in episode 2 titled "The Well" at least slightly.
There is still no certainty but these mourning fans may just get the justice they want upon the introduction of a new character named King Ezekiel (Khary Payton), the dreadlocked leader of the newest colony of survivors called The Kingdom. However, like Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) and company, this new character hates Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan), who killed not only Glenn but also Sgt. Abraham Ford (Michael Cudlitz).
In the comics by Robert Kirkman, Ezekiel was first introduced in "The Walking Dead" series issue 108. In the TV series, his hatred for Negan will be vital in the battle between the Kingdom and the Saviors in "The Walking Dead" Season 7.
Whether or not Ezekiel will avenge Glenn and Abraham has yet to be seen. Not much of Ezekiel will be seen in "The Well" but viewers will get to really know him in "The Walking Dead" Season 7 episode 3 titled "The Cell."
In addition, what many fans also want to know is the whereabouts of Morgan Jones (Lennie James) and Carol Peletier (Melissa McBride). In "The Well," they will see that the two characters are now part of The Kingdom under the rule of one Ezekiel.
Lincoln told Time that during the night when Glenn and Abraham were killed by Negan, there was still a tiny moment of unity that was prevalent among Rick and the rest of the guys and it is something that they can build upon. The actor noted that this was seen in the moment Rick told Maggie that Glenn is their family, too.
On the other hand, Yeun recently told Entertainment Weekly that he was not sure whether or not he has fully processed Glenn's death yet. Watch below the trailer of "The Well," which will air on AMC on Oct. 30:
