Robert Kirkman Promises 'Best Season Yet' in The Walking Dead Season 5

Season 5 of AMC's The Walking Dead does not premiere until the fall, but series creator Robert Kirkman thankfully offered a preview of the new season to keep fans excited.

The creator spoke to EW.com and went into some detail on the Season 5 premiere:

"In our first episode, it's very much going to focus on the story of Terminus. There's a lot of big revelations that haven't really come out that I think people are gonna be pretty startled by. There's a couple other revelations that I think people might've gotten a little bit of a lead on. We'll definitely be defining those in some cool ways and confirming some theories and shooting down others, which is very exciting.

"But I think the coolest thing about coming back to Season 5 is that we really hit the ground running. What I mean by that is that we very quickly deal with the situation that we left them in - this trapped, victim situation where they're kind of at the mercy of the people of Terminus. We really kind of expand the story from there very rapidly, so I think this is going to be a pretty fast-paced season with quite a bit going on. News is already out that Seth Gilliam has been added, and we're bringing in new characters like we always do, and I think season 5 is going to be our best season yet. I think when people finally see the premiere, they'll see what I'm talking about."

Some new promotional photos for Season 5 have also surfaced, which you can check out at Comic Book Movie.
