The Walking Dead fans find \u2018proof\u2019 Rick finally loses his hand in The Ones Who Live A New York Comic-Con teaser for The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live features Rick Grimes back in action, but fans are convinced they\u2019ve spotted him having lost a hand. New York Comic-Con is already off to a big start for The Walking Dead fans. In addition to the announcement that Melissa McBride would be returning for TWD: Daryl Dixon, fans got their first look at the upcoming spin-off, The Ones Who Live. Announced in 2022, The Ones Who Live sees Andrew Lincoln make his return to the franchise as Rick Grimes. Grimes was seen in a series of sequences in The Walking Dead\u2019s finale, all while Danai Gurira\u2019s Michonne was searching for him. The NYCC reveal included a short teaser, and fans are convinced they\u2019ve discovered Rick getting a major comic change. Walking Dead fans believe Rick is missing a hand in NYCC reveal The NYCC reveal trailer for The Ones Who Live features Rick in all sorts of peril, but Twitter user TWDUPromos is convinced one scene features Rick missing his hand. The observation is spurred by early leaks for The Ones Who Live, which imply Rick would lose his hand. Those leaks have been neither confirmed nor denied, and set photos don\u2019t show any kind of accommodation for removing Rick\u2019s hand either on-set or in post-production. Many are in debate in the comments about whether or not Rick is actually missing his hand. For what it\u2019s worth, the full YouTube trailer does appear to clearly depict Rick still with a hand, though he\u2019s holding it somewhat awkwardly. Still, it is possible the scene is somehow being edited to preserve a spoiler. Rick losing his hand was a pivotal moment in the comics that never made its way to the television series. In the comics, Rick\u2019s hand is cut off by The Governor. It\u2019s depicted as a major turning point for Rick, who seems to finally accept that the old world he knew is gone after the loss. While Rick missing his hand became an important character arc and visual for the comic, creator Robert Kirkman argued against it for the TV series, as he explained at a 2011 San Diego Comic-Con appearance. \u201cOne thing I\u2019m adamant about is I don\u2019t think that we should cut Rick\u2019s hand off [on television],\u201d he explained. \u201cWhen I\u2019m writing a comic book, I don\u2019t think about what I\u2019m doing. I go, \u2018Oh, it\u2019d be pretty cool if they cut his hand off right now. That\u2019d be pretty shocking, right?\u2019 Then I do it, and five issues later, I write, \u2018Rick opens a can of beans\u2019, and then I look at the script and think, \u2018He can\u2019t do that now.\u2019 I didn\u2019t even think that through.\u201d The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live debuts on AMC in February 2024.
