Shane, Hersel and Many More Characters from the Past Will Return to “The Walking Dead” This Sunday
This coming Sunday night’s episode of “The Walking Dead” promises to provide an emotional goodbye as well as a cast reunion for the sendoff of Andrew Lincoln’s Rick Grimes, who is being written out of the show in this week’s fifth episode of Season 9. Teased last night, it’s looking like Rick is going to be killed off, so make sure you have tissues handy.
The next episode is sure to be the most must-watch in the show’s 8 year history, and the official “Walking Dead” Twitter account is promising the return of many familiar faces.
They tweeted last night, “Next week’s Walking Dead will be more of an emotional rollercoaster than 701. Shane, Hersel, Sasha and MANY more return.”
Adding an extra layer of emotion to the episode, it’ll feature the final performance from Scott “Hersel” Wilson, who passed away earlier this year. Again, have… tissues… handy.

Season two of “Batman: Caped Crusader“, Prime Video’s animated noir series from DC Studios, Warner Bros. Animation, Bad Robot Productions, and 6th & Idaho, is officially set to arrive next month.
Prime Video will premiere all ten episodes of season two on Friday, July 31.
“Batman: Caped Crusader” is a hard-boiled look at the vigilante’s early years, reimagined by J.J. Abrams, Matt Reeves, Bruce Timm, Sam Register, and Ed Brubaker.
“Welcome to Gotham City, where the corrupt outnumber the good, criminals run rampant, and law-abiding citizens live in a constant state of fear. Forged in the fire of tragedy, wealthy socialite Bruce Wayne becomes something both more and less than human—The Batman.
“His one-man crusade for justice attracts unexpected allies within the GCPD and City Hall, but his heroic actions spawn deadly, unforeseen ramifications.”
The new premiere date comes with a suitably dark first look at some of Gotham’s denizens, including Edward Nygma, Carrie Kelly, and Roxy Rocket, who will be featured in the upcoming season.
Returning voice cast includes Hamish Linklater as Bruce Wayne/Batman, Jamie Chung as Harley Quinn/Harleen Quinzel, Jason Watkins as Alfred Pennyworth, Eric Morgan Stuart as Commissioner Jim Gordon, Krystal Joy Brown as Barbara Gordon, Michelle C. Bonilla as Renee Montoya, and Bumper Robinson as Lucius Fox.
Executive producers J.J. Abrams, Matt Reeves, and Bruce Timm are back for “Batman: Caped Crusader” Season 2. James Tucker, Geoffrey Thorne, Sarah Geismer, Rachel Rusch Rich, and Sam Register also executive produce.
You can catch up on season one now on Prime Video. Our own Daniel Kurland described this noir series as having more in common with EC Horror Comics than DC Comics.
He wrote that the series‘ “immersion into EC Comics ideology and a true indulgence in horror is a superpower that’s more fascinating and dangerous than any WayneTech gadget or Kryptonite-powered super-suit.”
