I have just checked "The Walking Dead Survivors' Guide" and it does mention that Michonne had a brother but it doesn't say that he was one of her two zombie followers. It does state that one of them was her boyfriend. I rather suspect he is just some random zombie she "acquired," but that's just my opinion.Vampifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318241813130102121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-18545760336859675032012-10-21T17:07:45.030+01:002012-10-21T17:07:45.030+01:00You're a man with good taste, Ray!You're a man with good taste, Ray!Vampifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318241813130102121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-19930398757729602082012-10-21T16:56:42.817+01:002012-10-21T16:56:42.817+01:00These look great!

For as tough, and no nonsense, as he is, he's also got a real heart, and I think really deeply cares about the group.<br /><br />I thought the second zombie with Michonne was her brother.
