  • Negan was married to a woman he lied to and cheated on. She died of an illness during the outbreak and he couldn't bring himself to put her down.
  • Negan mentions working with kids, likely as a gym coach given his graphic novel's counterpart's origin story.

Referbacks

  • Eugene mentions he and Gabriel eating dog, as seen in "Them".

Quotes

  • Negan: Now, I am guessing that a lot of you fine folks thought I was dead, chewed up, never to be crapped out again. Well, here's a little refresher on who the hell I am: I wear a leather jacket, I have Lucille, and my nutsack is made of steel. I am not dying until I am damn good and ready.
