Normally, I'd agree with you but we saw Morgan holding down a whole town by himself. He figured out how to keep the hoard at bay with rats in cages and pointy sticks not to mention that he acquired quite a cache of food and weapons from intruders all by his crazy lonesome.
Yeah Morgan turned out to be one innovative motherfucker.
I read the first four book collections. Yeah! The comic is better! In the tv show, blood and gore is the draw for some. To me, it's the brutality a human can resort to, to survive! Look for some back and forth between Michonne and the gov!
Totally agree, some crazy shit went down in the comics that would never make it on the show for being too fucked up.
