While news of a returning Merle Dixon is certainly exciting, and anyone who loves the franchise knows the prison offers some potentially exciting plot points, one has to wonder about the new members sure to join Rick Grimes and company.
Most notably, there's Michonne. We only received a hooded glimpse of her in the season two finale, and if you're unfamiliar with the comics, you probably have a few questions about the creepy woman with zombies chained to her. Here's just five things to keep in mind about the show's latest addition – with only minor spoilers, not revealing story details.
