Lee is immune to the zombie virus

edited October 2012 in The Walking Dead
Am I the only one here hoping this is the situation ?

Lee is immune, and in the end of season 1 they get information about
a facility that is working on an anti-virus.

CAN YOU DIGG IT ???? :D

    Walking Dead isn't the land of Deus Ex Machinas.

    To establish immunity, wouldn't someone have to die and not reanimate? I'm not sure how willing they'd be to test it out!

    Well it could be the virus that the bites infect you with just doesn't kill him, doesn't mean when he dies he doesn't come back. Still hope it does not go that way as that is just cheap and not what TWD is like.

    I hope Lee doesn't end up immune or finding a cure. If there's one thing that would spoil the ending, it's a huge cop-out like fining the cure suddenly.

    Well some people are immune to some diseases naturally, but I agree with that. Honestly it doesn't look like a bite to me, more of a scratch. But than again a scratch can infect you sometimes as well.

    chet will save him im sure...

    I'm still hoping it's not too late to amputate his arm. It worked in the comics.

    I think it's too late, the blood is already transporting the infection through the body, if you are gonna amputate, you have to do it quickly.

    i wouldn't mind to replace my arm with a mop

    Well Comic spoilers**






    When Morgan got bite Michonne sliced his arm off probably within a minute or two and that wasn't fast enough to save him, Lee would half to have chopped his arm from the elbow to make sure the moment it happened.

    They won't go that way surely???

    In the comics nothing is heard of about a survivor who is immune to the virus! This is The Walking Dead not Resident Evil!

    They'll chop his arm off maybe??? If not then he's dead and season 2 will be a big fucking disappointment!!

    There has never been a precedence set in Walking Dead that anyone is immune. I don't expect a spin-off game to change that. And like others have said, he could have amputated right away and maybe have a chance, but he didn't.

    We might wind up controlling a zombiefied Lee in the finale. Come to think of it, that'd be pretty awesome...

    ...unless our last decision is to eat Clementine.

    This is just dumb. Lee aren't a fucking superhero. And if it shows that Lee is immune to the zombie virus, it would really ruin the game

    im not too much into the comics but i've been in a few forums and there were several theories about Rick being the first "rehabilitated" walker, but its still that just an speculation

    We got to admit guys.. that was pretty smart move from Telltale. Letting us know Lee's gonna die for sure... it changes the perspective completely :D

    Ampu Lee! The only choice. :D

    I wonder if bringing people was a bad idea, what If I end up biting them or getting them killed? With the last episode on the way and and having everyone have different combinations of people with them, no reason to not make this last episode branch in a lot of different ways.

    Bahaha, that'd be the ultimate Deus Ex Machina.

    Lee's lying down, about to close his eyes for good...

    WHEN SUDDENLY Chet, Andrew St. John, Beatrice and Duck burst through the door with a cure.

    Only, of course, if you left during the daytime, spared Andy, and didn't shoot Duck or Beatrice.

    Otherwise that wouldn't make sense.

    People really seem to be in denial here... So i'll just quote Kenny..

    "It's just a scratch, he's not like the others!"
  • edited October 2012
    I gotta admit, that would be *nice*, but completely inconceivable. Yes, this is some alternate world, but there are no superheroics here. The only supernatural aspect are the Zombies. There is no 'Chosen One', Clem isn't a 'Golden Child'. If they added any supernatural elements to it, it would make the series a bit boring. This is supposed to be about how people are surviving in world thrown to zombies. If they blast em with fireballs and such, that would take away from the faux-reality of it, and it wouldn't be easy to identify with it.

    Bites in the Walking dead tend to kill whoever is bit due to the viruses on their teeth. In the comics the 2 characters that I recall dying from this were Jim and Allen. Allen's leg had a chunk taken out from the bite and he was amputated and he died from blood loss. Jim had a HUGE chunk of his arm bit off and died due to infection. This means the only people to die from this and not from blood loss are Jim and Duck. This gives me a little hope that the small bite Lee got may not be lethal. Considering Duck being only ten his immune system is probably not strong enough to hold off the virus. Lee having only a small bite and being thirty seven might hold it off, or I'm just in denial and someone else in the comic had a scratch and died but my word won't change what happens.

    I agree.

    Despite all the death and intense moments in this episode, the bite got me the most. My heart just completely sank, knowing Lee is surely going to die, but what makes it even sadder is thinking about how Clementine will react when we break the news to her :c

    Makes the last episode's title make complete sense now, haha.

    Can't believe I said I'd like to see Lee die. TTG makes me eat my own words with every new episode. Can't believe it's going to be like this though. One walker got in a lucky, surprise scratch. Especially after escaping Crawford. Until the walker jumped him, and after escaping Crawford, I thought Lee was an invincible badass. Needless to say, I was proven wrong.

    And killing of Lee isn't doing the exact same thing? i know its a poetic justice , he killed a man and now he is going to die himself, but if anything ep.1-4 has have him redeem himself over and over again, he saved clementine, he save a bunch of other people.

    So Telltale is ruining a perfectly good game if they kill Lee.

    Lee is the hero and either its not a bite, its a scratch from the plywood or he is immune.

    As much as I don't want Lee to die, immunity would be a cop out and not in tune with TWD world. Also, I assume you chose to look at the trash like I did. I had the same hope it was a scratch from something else. However, I saw if you go directly for the radio the zombie jumps out and grabs Lee's arm. He's pretty much the only thing that touches Lee in that scenario.

    I wonder if TTG is probably planning on a completely different story-line if they continue to a new season after episode 5.

    The bite didn't look deep. And with the place near his outer-wrist couldn't he just, dunno cut out 1 inch of the flesh around the wound and be fine? Sure he wouldn't die from that.

    Infections don't work that way.

    It seems like they are going to a different storyline. I don't really see how they could keep the same storyline because with Lee most likely dying there isn't anyone for you to play as.

    Don't even joke like that, nowhere on the Resident Evil games was someone immune to the virus...they just got a cure which didn't appear suddenly, and was actually in the game from the beginning, which isn't cheap by the way, soon after they got bitten.

    all u guys hoping lee dies are try hard i can understand immunity that would be stupid but a cure would be nice not like a "cure" but more like antibiotics stooped the spread to his brain somehow

    According to Resident evil 6
    Sherry Birkin now can regenerate from serious wounds because of the G-Virus that was never fully cured.

    Lee needs Vernon. That would be the ONLY way to survive.
  • edited October 2012
    NO. Just No. It's too late for Lee. He will die eventually due to the host of horrible diseases that are vectored in the average walker's mouth. There's no escaping that. The sooner you realize the better off you'll be.

    Lee's dead. the only way to survive is to amputate right after the bite. Lee makes it all the way back to the morgue.

    my guess is that lee is imune to the bite disease because showing lee getting bitten at ep 4 will lead to instantly know ep 5 end:lee getting headshotted by clementine after he saves her.
    and season 2 are episode 6-10 not 1-5 so the main characters main remain on the next "season"

    haha+you+are+poor.png
    My actual reaction when I saw the title, I actually laughed for a good while in real life, remove the "you're poor" part. Being immune to the infection is impossible, at least in Kirkman's wlrld. Not EVEN a chance to this idea, it's bad, and you should feel bad. Lee is not surviving, he's just a time-bomb before he reanimates, or is shot dead.
    They won't go that way surely???

    just because someone dies, means the whole game is screwed. The dead always win, they took Doug, Carley, mark, Larry, lee's family, Katjaa, katjaa's family, duck, Lilly's family, the saint John family, chuck, Glenn's family, well, a hell load of people, yet it doesn't make The walking dead a bad plot. If you want a happy ending then go watch motherf-ing Barney or some crap like that.
