What is The Walking Dead: Dead City about?

The Walking Dead: Dead City saw the return of Cohan and Morgan as the fan-favorite characters from the original series. It follows the characters as they set foot on the perilous, post-apocalyptic Manhattan.

The official synopsis for The Walking Dead: Dead City reads: “Maggie and Negan travel to post-apocalyptic Manhattan – long ago cut off from the mainland. The crumbling city is filled with the dead and denizens who have made it a world full of anarchy, danger, beauty, and terror.”

Other cast members include Gaius Charles as Perlie Armstrong, Zeljko Ivanek as Željko Ivanek as The Croat, Mahina Napoleon as Ginny, Logan Kim as Hershel Rhee, Jonathan Higginbotham as Tommaso, and Karina Ortiz as Amaia, among others.
