Michonne and Clementine: It’s Time For What We Deserve

Posted on 26 Apr 2016 by

As Michonne steps out of the spotlight, we have some words from Robert Kirkman about a full-fledged season 3 of Telltale’s The Walking Dead. The former wraps up the events surrounding the titular character’s break from the main group and, hopefully, will bring a degree of closure to her life. At least, as much as one can manage during a zombie pandemic. But she’s tough, so I’m sure she’ll be fine. Really, what can go wrong?

The latter reintroduces us to Clementine. Presumably to follow, once again, as a protagonist. Though the wording is curious and, perhaps, indicates she may take on a lesser role this time around. Given that the time frame is going to bring things almost level with the current comic timeline, she could be full grown by now and take on a more mentorial role. Time will tell. It’s going to be awesome based on past experience, so check out the trailer and interview and draw your own conclusions.


Official Press Release

SAN RAFAEL, Calif., Apr. 26, 2016 — Leading publisher of digital entertainment Telltale Games and Robert Kirkman’s Skybound Entertainment, announced today that ‘What We Deserve,’ the final of three episodes in The Walking Dead: Michonne – A Telltale Miniseries, is now available for download.

Episode 3 – ‘What We Deserve’ is available now on PC/Mac from the Telltale Online Store, Steam, and other digital distribution services, the PlayStation®Network for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3, and the Xbox Games Store for Xbox One® and Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft. The episode is also available today for compatible iOS devices via the App Store, and for Android-based devices via Google Play and the Amazon App Store.

The Walking Dead: Michonne – A Telltale Miniseries stars the iconic, blade-wielding character from Robert Kirkman’s best-selling comic books, portrayed in-game by award-winning actress Samira Wiley (Orange is the New Black).

Haunted by her past and coping with unimaginable loss and regret, the story explores Michonne across a three episode miniseries event. Players will dive into the mind of Michonne to discover what took her away from Rick, Carl, and the rest of her trusted group… and what brought her back.

In an all-new interview, series creator Robert Kirkman spoke on the depth and complexity of Michonne and what makes her a long-lasting fan favorite in such an immensely celebrated series, as well as reveals the first details of the third season of The Walking Dead series from Telltale.

“Season Three of the Telltale series is really exciting to me. The way that the timeline works, Season Three will actually be getting pretty close to where we are in the comics concurrently,” said Kirkman. “We’ll be checking in on Clementine again, so we’ll be seeing her, seeing where she’s at and what’s going on with her which is going to be great. But also similar to the Michonne series there will probably be some more comic book elements that we’ll be working into it in some interesting ways. I don’t want to spoil too much…”

In ‘What We Deserve,’ feeling the weight of choices both recent and long ago, Michonne tries to protect an innocent family… but Norma and the vengeful Monroe crew are closing in. As reality shatters and the ghosts of the daughters she abandoned demand to be heard, your choices will determine who lives, who dies, and what redemption really means in a world gone to hell.
