The Walking Dead universe is filled with compelling characters. Negan is the most impactful villain in the franchise’s history, now having turned into a popular anti-hero. As an original character for the show, Daryl’s long role in the universe makes him another strong contender. Fear The Walking Dead stars Nick and Alicia Clark are also among TWD universe’s best. The main show also has a lot of fierce fighters, like Carol, Michonne, and Shane, who rank high. However, Andrew Lincoln’s Rick Grimes has become one of the most iconic characters in TV history and thus is hard to top.
