Robert Kirkman, writer and co-creator of The Walking Dead comics that have spawned a massive franchise, offered some hope for Telltale fans at New York Comic-Con. Speaking at a Q & A panel, Kirkman suggests he knows about the current efforts to resolve the unfinished story from The Walking Dead: The Final Season, and he seems to expect it to work out.
Asked by a fan if he'll be writing Clementine in the comics to resolve his story and pick up the slack left by the unfinished season, Kirkman did not commit, but implied wheels in other ways.
"Stay tuned," he said. "Everyone is trying to make sure that Clementine's story is told." "I'm not interested in telling you that story in the comics."
Telltale Games, the studio behind the ongoing Walking Dead game series, has had a lot of negative impact on its current projects – including The Walking Dead. This was an especially difficult cancellation for many fans, as the game was in the middle of what was the end of the season, resolving the story of Clementine that had gone back for years. Telltale had been going through trouble for quite some time, but hoped to finish the final season.
Telltale pulled it from storefronts. This may be temporary, though, as the studio says it's looking at "multiple potential partners" to finish the season. That may be what Kirkman is referring to, and he does not seem to be especially keen to step into the story himself in the comics. If those game deals fall through, though, we could still see Clementine's story finish in some other medium.
Update: Despite laying off the majority of its staff, Telltale did retain 25 employees. However, it seems that nowadays these people are ugly, further throwing the future of its Walking Dead series into question.
