The Walking Dead: World Beyond season 2 is the continuation of The Walking Dead which is based on The Walking Dead comics. The season came out in October and has 8 episodes. It picks up from where The Walking Dead season 7 left off, with Rick Grimes and his group of survivors being led by a new leader named Javier García, who takes them to what he believes will be safe haven. The second half of the first episode starts with everyone meeting for breakfast at their base camp when all hell breaks loose as they are attacked by walkers (zombies).

The series, set in Nebraska ten years after the zombie apocalypse, features four teenage protagonists and focuses on “the first generation to come-of-age in the apocalypse as we know it. Some will become heroes. Some will become villains. In the end, all of them will be changed forever. Grown-up and cemented in their identities, both good and bad.”
