Looking at some of the communities I had to wonder if we've seen the development of society? First after the outbreak were small, splintered groups and loners, like the Atlanta camp. Then came people grouping together to make larger numbers, settling in one place like the prison or Woodbury. As time went on more people began to arrive at these communities and they grew and grew and became more developed, like the Hilltop and kingdom. And now they've started to link up with each other and make an even bigger network.
If Rick and co went back to Atlanta would they find something similar to what they have up north? If they hadn't lost the prison it would only have grown bigger and become more developed and then they would've found other like them. Is it the same everywhere? If they kept finding more could they unite communities from the Midwest, from Texas, from Florida, even California? Maybe even parts of Canada and Mexico? Couldn't they begin rebuilding the USA?
And that brings me to my last point. As the comic readers know, now in the comics there seems to be a new, big group in Ohio that are in the beginnings of communication with Eugene. A lot of people are theorising on what that means but here's what I think; we've seen the slow rebuild of society throughout the show and the comics. Currently there's hundreds of people spread across several communities that are all closely linked to each other. And now they're finding more like them.
Who knows. 100 issues ago there was no Alexandria, no Hilltop and no Kingdom, no Oceanside or Sanctuary or Whisperers or even a community in Ohio. All there was was a dozen people roaming the wild. In 100 issues the world of the walking dead could be so much bigger. By issue 268 there could be communities all over America working together to rebuild civilisation. And what could stand in their way?
