… But Glenn’s death quenches Lucille’s thirst
Right after Negan practically rubs the bloodstained Lucille in Rosita’s face, Abraham’s former love interest, none other than Daryl Dixon stands up to him by hooking him in the jaw. Many feared Daryl would be the one to get the bat next, but all of a sudden, Negan turned around and cracked an unsuspecting Glenn’s skull right down the middle.
Glenn’s death was taken straight from the pages of the comics. He looks absolutely horrendous as his eye pops out of its socket, turning to Maggie and telling her he’ll find her. The entire scene is shocking and rather unexpected, especially since it directly follows Abraham’s death.
As Glenn mumbled his last words with his skull caved in and blood gushing down his face, Negan takes a moment to leave him in his suffering, addressing Glenn’s wife as she broke down in tears. While this scene would still be a tremendous shock if Negan would simply beat Glenn to death with a few consecutive hits, we can’t help but hate the grinning psychopath ever more than we already did for leaving this pizza boy turned seasoned survivor gargling in his own blood for about half a minute before finishing the job.
