If you've seen the latest episode of The Walking Dead seaಌsꦜon 10, you'll likely have some questions.

In Michonne's final episode before she re-appears in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Walking Dead movies, she finds the iconic boots of her former, presumed dead, partner – Rick Grimes &�🦂�ndash; on a boat that has apparently washed ashore to Virgil's island. 

Not only that, b🔥ut among the findings is an iPhone with a sketch of what appears to be Michonne and Judith, with Rick's name written 🙈on the screen alongside a series of Japanese characters. What does this all mean? And how does it connect to AMC's upcoming trilogy of movies? 

First of all, The Walking Dead showrunner Angela Kang confirmed in an email to that the Japanese message translates to "believe a little longer", though stopped short of clarifying what that could be interpreted to mean, calling it "a hint a🔯t some larger story that took place."

It's likely that Anne, the cult leader last seen flying off with Rick in The Walking Dead season 9, wrote this message, alongside the drawing of Michonne and Judith, given that she was partial to portraiture during her stint on the maiܫnline show.

As for the boots, The Walking Dead chief content officer and execut𒉰ive producer Scott Gimple told Talking Dead (vi⛎a ) that "both Rick Grimes and  would not give up those boots very easily", suggesting that everyone's favourite post-apocalyptic sheriff must have been forced into a difficult bargain of sorts. 

𒐪Here's hoping the remainiไng episodes of The Walking Dead season 10 shed more light on this unravelling mystery.
