The season 9 finale titled “The Storm” was directed by Nicotero and written by Kang and Matthew Negrete. It saw Michonne (Gurira), Daryl (Reedus), Carol (McBride), Ezekiel (Payton)and most of the Survivors reeling from the massacre of “The Calm Before,” as they battle a raging blizzard and splintering divisions – and a mysterious voice that suddenly breaks through the silence.

The season was a reset of sorts, deviating from the comics and jolting the narrative with the loss of Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and Maggie (Lauren Cohan). There was also big time jump, a dramatic shift in technology, the introduction of the Samantha Morton-led Whisperers, the killing of Tom Payne’s Jesus and the adaption of one of the most iconic moments from the comics with the beheading of 10 characters the penultimate episode of season 9.
