The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon teases new images

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon story plot
The first season, The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon, follows Daryl's journey from The Commonwealth to France. He is soon tasked by a nun to transport Laurent, a young French boy believed to be a super empathetic messiah, to a secret location in Northern France.
Daryl teams up with Sister Isabelle, embarking on a dangerous journey filled with new burner zombies, a sinister nightclub owner, and a power-hungry political leader.
Season two continues with Daryl and Carol confronting old demons and new challenges. Daryl struggles with his decision to stay in France, causing tension, while Genet’s movement gains momentum, leading to a clash with the Union of Hope over France’s future.
At New York Comic Con 2023, it was revealed that McBride would be a series regular in season 2, titled The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon – The Book of Carol. This news thrilled fans who were disappointed when McBride initially dropped out due to the overseas filming location.
