Product Information

Negan is almost never seen without his bat as the show continues. She is his weapon of choice that he keeps with him and talks about as if she is a person. Throughout the next few seasons, Lucille is seen in almost every episode and is always with Negan. In season 8, Negan vaguely states that he helped young people improve upon their weaknesses and molded them into stronger individuals. In the season 10 episode " Here's Negan", he is portrayed as having been a high school gym teacher. Negan later met a woman named Lucille and the pair fell in love and married. Over time, however, Negan began cheating on her. She found out about the affair and he begged her forgiveness, which she granted. Around this time, Negan was fired from his job because he assaulted a man whose kids went to the school he taught at because the man had insulted his wife. In the onset of the outbreak, Negan ventured out into the walker-filled wilderness to find medicine for Lucille's pancreatic cancer, but when he returned, he found that she had died and become a walker. He cannot bring himself to put his wife down; this act of weakness would continue to haunt him and thus Negan strived to become a much stronger person. Kain, Erik.

Negan maintains his obsession with his bat and his need to refer to her as though she is a real person. However, she might be an even more iconic weapon in the comics than she was in the show with a longer presence and a deeper history. As of now, the theories on who Negan will kill in the finale are running rampant on the Internet. Some even speculate that fans won't find out Negan's victim until the Season 7 premier, and for good reason. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, comic book creator and series's executive producer Robert Kirkman said "it's entirely possible there's going to be a painful summer for Walking Dead fans."

Maggie replies that she will never forgive him, but she will try to move on past her anger for her own sake and that of her son. Negan accepts her decision, and he and Annie leave the Commonwealth together to begin a new life.This clearly upsets Negan as he asks for her to be returned to him.

In the years since the defeat of Pamela Milton and Lance Hornsby, Maggie has been forced to abandon the original Hilltop due to the damage from the Whisperers ultimately being too severe to repair, instead relocating the community to a rural factory complex in either New York or New Jersey. This new Hilltop was raided by the Croat who Maggie had recognized as a former Savior from his use of Savior tactics and, in particular, the whistle that the Saviors had used to intimidate their victims.

Every character is left to watch in horror as one of their best friends is brutally beaten to death in front of them all. The television show stayed relatively true to this and made sure Glenn’s death was just as gory and horrifying as it was in the comic. The last thing we see before the season ends is Negan choosing who to kill by pointing Lucille at each person while saying “eenie, meenie, miny, mo” before finally landing on a person and beating them to death with Lucille. This sets the tone for how we will view both Negan and Lucille for the rest of the series.

When he finds evidence of Dr. Carson aiding in Daryl's escape (secretly planted by Dwight), Negan throws him in the fire-pit before apologizing to Dwight for doubting him, and offering condolences for his loss.
