It's like a scene right out of Armageddon!

Well, it is an alternate time line.... (I kid, I kid, the whole thing stank)

I'm going to have to go with the interminable ship at the beginning of SpaceBalls

Yes, I know the background now. But I haven't read the comics, hadn't watched the Talking Dead. The episode gave no indication as to why Abraham went ballistic.

Agreed!
