I’m hoping to see the return of Carol. Didn’t much care for her initially because she was so weak, but she’s developed into one of my favorite characters.
And it’s so nice that they’re going to be out of the prison and back into the world. The prison location seemed to make the show somehow smaller, when in reality they should be trying to seek out other non-zombie people and maybe finding a larger place to homestead and start rebuilding some semblance of civilization. Maybe even look for an island or peninsula or other easily guarded spot with plenty of acreage for homes/shelters and farm land. I mean, Georgia isn’t too far from the Gulf and it borders on the Atlantic so they could head for a port and get some boats and see about some fine Caribbean living since walkers don’t swim.
Granted, I haven’t read the comic books so I have no idea where the story line is headed but that’s what I’d probably do if I were in their situation.
Great minds think alike...I too look for Carol’s return. Also the island idea is good. Concerning the comics, I read the first 6 and didn’t get much out of it...too dark.
The prison had farm land, water, shelter and safety. If the zombies were deteriorating (and there wasn’t someone feeding them to lure them in), then they could have waited there until the initial critical mass of zombies disintegrated. Make rare forays out for critical supplies but try to survive it as a siege. Maybe in another year or two, most of the initial zombies are gone, with only 20% left. Now foraging becomes easier and safer.
Finding other people doesn’t help them much if they have to struggle to feed who they have.

Head North where it freezes in the winter...
A deep cold freeze on zombie tissue should destroy it, or freeze them solid so that Daryl in a parka could get a sledge hammer and go zombie head smashing...
It might have been in the World War Z book where that idea was explored - but if I remember right, the zombies just walked across the ocean floor and climbed/shuffled up anchor lines.
Water’s not actually a good barrier to zombies. Sure they can’t swim, but they also don’t have to breath. They can just walk, currents and mud might mess them up but they’ll show up eventually.
They were working on finding new people slowly but surely. The problem with new people of course is that some are bad and some are good, approach the wrong kind of group and everything you built is ruined. Better to build your security and trust slowly and reluctantly.
Islands don’t work. The dead do not breath. Remember the guy chained in the lake? Still was a walker. You’d have to constantly scout the coast for walkers emerging from the sea.
You don't know that for sure but it's a given they don't float.
I have insider info that the group does eventually end up on an island within the states on a large lake and are eventually overrun by walkers who instead of swimming, were able to walk along the bottom of the lake and surface along the shoreline surrounding the island then proceed to attack the survivors on the island.....
