'Walking Dead' Character Daryl May Be Gay, Creator Hints

[QamYasharahla]

Could speculation about a main "Walking Dead" character being gay be true?

Fans of the popular AMC zombie show have long questioned the sexuality of one of the lead characters, Daryl. Now, creator Robert Kirkman is addressing the rumors after he was directly asked about Daryl's sexuality in the letter column to "The Walking Dead" #130.

He told ComicBook.com, “All I can say is that it’s been discussed. We have very specific ideas about Daryl’s sexuality (or the seeming lack thereof), and if there’s ever a quiet period in the show where he’s not consistently distracted by crossbowing… we’ll tackle it in the show.”

Kirkman also reportedly stated that AMC "absolutely would" allow the show's creators to make Daryl gay.

This revelation comes in wake of a recent blog on HuffPost that questioned: why are there no gays on "The Walking Dead"?

Im not one to get all aggy whenever there is some gay ish on a show.....but this shyt right here just seems forced and unnecessary.

 

[Dominic Brehetto]

Every show these days has to have some unneccessary gay character/sub plot shoe horned in..shyts disgusting.

 

[Bone Bender]

Didnt he shack up with Carol for awhile?

And Im wondering where they got suspicion that he might be gay. Its weird. Must be one of those wishful thinking things by gays and chicks that ship gay romances.

I don't compare the plight of black men and gay people but what's so hard to understand about there being a large portion of gay people who like to see people like themselves represented?

 

[Iamnoone]

To be fair there are several gay and lesbian couples in the comics
