Ultimate Zombie Team
You are about to be thrown from our universe into the world of The Walking Dead. Tough break, kid. BUT, you get to chose five characters from all of fictiondom to bring with you! So that's nice. Who do you choose, why, and how might they also get in your way?
(Sorry if this is redundant. I thought a thread like this would exist by now but I wasn't able to find one.)

Reminds me of this picture I found once:
Just for fun I might add a few characters from the Walking Dead video game just to make the character dynamics interesting, like Lilly, Kenny, Lee, and Carley, as I know how they would act and respond in a zombie apocalypse. Others I see right now may be unreliable.
As for choosing those in The Walking Dead comic, well I'd be screwed, as everyone, and I mean everyone, dies there. Seriously, the game looks like a walk in the park in comparison.
So in the end, I suppose my team would be, Ajimu, Lee, Kenny, Lilly, and Carly. That's assuming myself doesn't count as part of the team. (Even though I technically am)
Pro: This great ape made my list because he has proved himself a damn good leader. He's capable of making difficult decisions while maintaining his, for lack of a better term, humanity. But above all else, he's a strategist who knows how to make the most of his group's strengths. He took down the previous alpha male, then got him back on his feet, then turned him into a devoted lieutenant. People in this universe could use some discipline (I'm looking at you, Kenny).
Con: If I run into a group of attractive, sex starved women I'll have to keep this animal's stinking paws off them, the damn dirty ape....
2. Nancy Botwin-Weeds
Pro: Agrestic's Baroness of Bud is one scrappy woman. A life of illegal drug dealing has given her a great history of dealing with questionable and hard to read people in highly dramatic situations. Any jaggoff can shoot a walker but Nancy has an arsenal of skills to deal with the real threat, fellow people, including a sexuality that most female characters in the game possess but none use except arguably Molly.
Con: "...that crazy fuck on the radio's messing with us! If now aint the time for a blunt..." I don't want to have this conversation a hundred times.
3. Professor Max Arturo-Sliders
Pro: One of the most genius minds in sci-fi, a life of sliding in and out of vastly alternate worlds has made Arturo a master at thinking on the fly. Plus, he's saved multiple worlds by using his brain to do some tricky stuff like create penicillin and reinvent the atom bomb. Plus, if he brought the sliding machine so we could just leave that world, I wouldn't complain.
Con: He calls everyone by their last name. That's gonna get old quick.
4. Bruce Wayne-Batman
Pro: Bruce Wayne is the goddammned (spoilers) BATMAN (end spoilers). Who couldn't use a guy who can whip all kinds of ass, glide from rooftop to rooftop, and is the world's greatest detective? Bruce would have had Ben's ass figured out way before the bandits came to cause trouble. But what Bruce really brings to the table is an infallible moral compass. His entire MO is keeping people decent in indecent times. You think making a hard choice when Clem is watching is hard, wait until Batman is watching while you dangle a college kid over a ledge. Bruce will remember that....
Con: I don't have time for Batman to capture a guy like The Governor, put him in an asylum, wait for him to escape, and do it again and again until the dude has to resort to giant Queen Elizabeth battle robots to outdo his last attempt.
5. Sly Cooper-Sly Cooper franchise
Pro: This guy is one cunning, devious, thevieus raccoonus. Not only is he a master thief from a long line of great thieves with the power to plan elaborate heists when dealing with issues like Crawford, but he can also walk on thin rails and wires. Combined with Batman's rooftop prowess, the issue of locked doors is solved forever.
Con: We've got to stop and mourn for every dead raccoon in the street while walkers roam ever closer.
So liking your number 2 selection. But no Batman...Lee is Batman...except that he is clumsy...way ALOT!!! I'm also thinking maybe conker from N64's conker's bad fur day would be an incredible asset to the group, especially cuz if he gets hurt chocolate randomly springs up around him, very helpful indeed:p
You forgot Mr Olympia...And the terminator!!
2. Batman
3. Yoda
4. MacGyver
5. Michonne
2. Dexter Morgan from Dexter. He's smart and resourceful. His medical knowledge would be useful if you had an injury. Already an accomplished serial killer, so he knows how to sneak around quietly and he is in good physical shape for taking on a bunch of walkers at once. Knows anatomy, so he would understand right where to hit them to destroy the brain effectively. Basically a sociopath, so he would take out any living people that are a threat with no hesitation.
3. Hagrid from the Harry Potter series. Tough part - giant hide may make him impervious to bites, and makes him very tough when it comes to attacks from humans. Capable of tossing grown men like rag dolls. A very loyal friend. Capable of a little bit of magic in a real pinch!
4. Bob Lee Swagger from Shooter. A bad assed Marine sniper! Clever, tough, and resourceful. Also a loyal friend.
5. Ripley from the Alien franchise. She's smart, tough, and would have your back if you had hers. Can use heavy machinery if needed.
Optimus Prime
Rainbow Dash
Arcanine
Shadow The Hedgehog

Shit just got serious!
Superman, Dave Lister, Arnold Rimmer, Kryten, Cat, Holly (with Mobile TV)
My Ultimate Zombie Team is.......
1. Batman- Obvious choice for leader. Worlds greatest detective, combat proficient, lots of useful gadgets aimed to avoid detection. Hes also a great moral compose for the group, as hes against killing. This could be a hindrance if he refuses to kill zombies, but he'd at least ensure we don’t lose our humanity in the process of surviving.
2. Bruce Willis- Gets shit done, action hero, all around badass. I'd want him watching my back in a firefight with hostile survivors or covering me from a herd.
3. Walter White- Chemist, super smart, able to adapt to his environment, a desperate need for survival. It really cant hurt to have a scientist around, coming up with ways to liquefy zombies and shit.
4. Tyrion Lannister- Cunning strategist, not bad in a fight, also good at adapting; surviving impossible situations. Always has a plan and if all else fails, hes small and could get in and out of tight places to scavenge.
Hell yes another Slider fan! Not many left these days, and yeah good pick too. Like Doug but 100x better.
Shit just got REAL serious!
We're definitely a dying breed, unfortunately. Exactly, he's Doug but without the bull crap was exactly my thought there.
But would Jesus really kill a zombie? Lol
2.Zoey from L4D
3.Agent Mulder (Yeah well...I'm sure he'd be useful)
4.Bill from L4D
5.Lee from WD
Yes. Yes he would.
And it would be epic up until he got bit and came back three days later fighting for the enemy while you're distracted trying to find Easter Eggs
Good moral values, knows how to raise other people's children, if we find any strays. And a lightsaber is one hell of a decapitation weapon combined with cutting tool. Also, although the Force cannot kill zombies, it is good at pushing them back and for use in heavy lifting.
2. The Terminator
Doesn't eat, doesn't sleep, no risk of a Walker bite, good with weapons, can be an emergency power source. And if all goes bad, can overload his own power core to create a nuclear explosion big enough to wipe out a city. See how all those Walkers coming to Savannah handle that!
3. Clementine
Her highness is a must have in any survival group. No more reason needed!
4. Scotty - Star Trek
I prefer my tech-heads a bit more classic. And nothing beats Scotty when it comes to working on technical machinery under high stress and pressure.
5. Edward Cullen
Every group needs someone to feed to the zombies. And this one doesn't die! Share the enjoyment of seeing him be eaten over and over and over and over again. Sparkly bastard..
