Lore & Background

Maggie and Negan travel into a post-apocalyptic Manhattan, cut off from the mainland, to find Maggie's kidnapped son Hershel. His captor is the Croat (Zeljko Ivanek), a sadistic former Savior who leads the Burazi gang, while marshal Perlie Armstrong (Gaius Charles) of the New Babylon Federation hunts Negan. Maggie now leads the Bricks, a community that moved to New York from the Hilltop.
