The Walking Dead Issue 178 tied up loose ends while unraveling others. Check out our updated list of the most and least powerful characters in The Walking Dead after Part 4 of New World Order.


1. Pamela

 

pamela

As the leader of a 50,000+ person settlement Pamela rightfully remains at the top of the Power Rankings leaderboard. The woman has her own military for God’s sake!


2. Rick

 

rick

We didn’t see Rick this issue but he still holds a lot of power in the zombie apocalypse. Expect to see him more in the next few issues.


3. Maggie (+1)

 

maggie

Maggie rose a spot because she seems to finally be getting all her ducks aligned. She’s happy, she has a new partner, and things seem to be OK with her and Sophia. Also, have we mentioned she’s still leading the Hilltop?


4. Michonne (-1)

 

michonne

Michonne’s only getting bumped down because we realized Maggie technically holds more power than her. Outside of that, Michonne kicked off the healing process between her and Elodie this issue – but it’s clear it’ll be a while until they understand each other. Michonne didn’t like how OK Elodie seemed with Sebastian slapping her – so it’ll be fascinating to see how Michonne’s personality plays into the Commonwealth’s strange rules.


5. Lance

 

lance

As Pamela’s second-in-command Lance holds more power than most at The Commonwealth, including that brat Sebastian.


6. Sebastian (+3)

 

sebastian

It pains us to keep elevating this entitled douche but we kind of have to given the power he wields. Even if Mercer is secretly planning a coup, Sebastian can still order him around…and that’s a lot of power.


7. Officer Mercer (+3)

 

mercer

Speaking of, we’re bumping him up because he seems to be more influential than Princess, Eugene, and the rest below him. He could easily take on Sebastian, the Governor, and her allies anytime he wanted to.


8. Princess (-1)

 

princess

Princess should actually get moved up just for her “You guys are going to make me put my googles down, aren’t you” line, but since Mercer shut her attack down we have to move her.


9. Eugene (-3)

 

eugene

Eugene used to be higher on the list because of his unique connection to The Commonwealth, but now that everyone’s been acclimated he doesn’t hold that over his people anymore.


10. Siddiq (+1)

 

siddiq

Siddiq gains a spot because of his insight into Mercer’s secret possible hypothetical maybe not but also maybe so plan to overtake The Commonwealth. Maybe.


11. Carl (-3)

 

carl

Carl’s sliding down the rankings because he hasn’t heavily contributed to the story recently outside of cooling down Sophia. So until something happens on his end he’ll keep falling.


12. Magna

 

magna

We’re glad Magna didn’t take getting shoved around by Sebastian lightly. Would have been sweeter to see her fight back, but there’s still time.


13. Yumiko

 

yumiko

Same for Yumiko – don’t let that teenage punk try anything! Also would have been nice to see her kick his ass.


14. Elodie

 

elodie

See Elodie capitulate to Sebastian’s abuse was concerning – so we’re keeping her low on our list. Even though she’s probably doing it in exchange for living a relatively normal life in an apocalypse, it’s still something not worth putting up with. Hopefully Michonne can talk some sense into her.


15. Jesus

 

jesus

Sweet Jesus it’s been a minute since we’ve seen Jesus. Even though these Power Rankings influenced by recency bias, we couldn’t in good conscience rank Dante and Sophia higher than Jesus and Aaron. So here they stand.


16. Aaron

 

aaron

Everything we just said about Jesus also applies to Aaron.


17. Dante (NEW)

 

dante

Like him or not, it seems like Dante is here to stay. So because of that and our aforementioned recency bias we’re adding him into the mix until someone comes around and takes his place.


18. Sophia (NEW)

 

sophia

We’re adding Sophia for similar reasoning. Since she seems to be impacting our major power players like Maggie and Carl we feel she should be included at the bottom.


Out of the Rankings: William, Dwight

    Once again these rankings look about right, hard to know where some stand at this point but I am pulling for Rick still, and Michonne, can’t wait to see where this story line ends up!
