AMC has made the most of the zombie apocalypse craze with

. The parent show is based on an ongoing comic series, but

has no source material for guidance. Fans just aren\'t able to read ahead and try to guess what\'s coming next for Maddie and Co. in the early stages of the end of the world. According to

co-creator Robert Kirkman, however, fans are actually lucky that there are no

comics to direct the plot. Here\'s what he has to say about the lack of comics for

Depending on what fan reactions Robert Kirkman and the other folks behind the scenes have seen, a big death may be looming.

Luckily, we don\'t have to wait too much longer to see what will happen next for the not-so-merry band of survivors. The second half of

Season 2 hits the airwaves on Sunday, April 10 at 9 p.m. ET on AMC. Check out our fall TV premiere schedule to see when you can expect your other favorite shows in the near future.
