Season 2, Leyland?
For those who haven't played 400 days yet, don't read any further if you DON'T WANT SPOILERS!!!
In one of the early screenshots of season 2, we see one of a man getting grabbed by a walker wearing what looks like a green hoodie. We don't really get to see much of his face, only from the side, but he had fairly short grey hair right? This just has me thinking is it Leyland from Bonnie's story in 400 days?
Now don't get me wrong, by assuming that a man with grey short hair is Leyland, there's more to it than that. First of all whether or not you chose for Bonnie to leave Leyland or not, they end up getting separated and we don't see him die. If Bonnie left him, he may have escaped another way. We know that those people who Dee stole from were the people with Shel at the diner right? And Shel's story takes place about a week after Bonnie I think. Even though they had some supplies stolen (from Dee) they still seemed to function fairly normally considering, with Becca playing guitar and all. It wasn’t until after that foreign intruder came along, things changed. Whether or not you choose to kill the intruder, he must’ve been dealt with. After that, the diner becomes a bad place to live in right? All locked down and all. You’d think if they killed Leyland, the group would already be a strict place to live in when we got to playing Shel’s story. Then again, in the credits of 400 days we see pictures that may differ depending on what you chose in different stories. Regardless, we see a snapshot of Shel’s people finding Dee’s body without Leyland.
That was only one reason. More evidence that may back up my theory is about the screenshot I was talking about in the first place. Did you look closely at the green hoodie that he was wearing? To me, it looked quite similar to something Shel would wear. As you know, Leyland’s wife Dee stole a bag of supplies for him. No matter what happens later, Leyland won’t leave the bag. Perhaps one of Shel’s hoodies was in there, similar to season 1 episode 2 when they steal from the car and there’s a hoodie which Clementine may take.
The voice actor for Leyland (Adam Harrington) also voiced Bigby in Telltale's new game The Wolf Among Us. Although this doesn't really have anything to do with the storyline, perhaps Adam is becoming a somewhat friend to Telltale and therefore signing up to voice characters in more of their games.
So anyway, there’s my prediction and supporting evidence. Please reply if you agree/disagree and have something to say. I REALLY hope Kenny returns, but if it turns out he won’t, I personally think Leyland’s return could make up for it because I think that would just be amazing. However, if both Kenny and Leyland return, that’s even better as well.

Leland is killed if left behind, there's a screenshot in the credits of Roman holding a gun and standing over Dee and Leland's bodies. Also if you play Shel's episode after leaving Leland in Bonnie's (if your playing chronologically) Roman will say
"last time we barely caught them but that wasn't down to us, whatever happened was between them"
Also the guy in the picture dosn't look much like Leland to me however I'm hoping many 400 days characters could show up briefly as many of them have alternative fates.
You're right, thanks for correcting me.
Yeah I'm hoping for characters from 400 days to return too. I have this theory, doesn't seem likely but I've still got it. The people who go to the community with Tavia are actually the ones who are more likely to die. So if we think we're trying to recruit as many as we can for a good purpose, maybe we're being tricked. I hope that's not it, but it would be interesting.
I'm also hoping we find one of the prisoners who's supposed to be missing a foot. The picture in the credits of that seem to imply something.
Nope, In Russell's story depending on who's foot you shot off if you say no to Nate in the car walkers come forcing Russell to get in Nate's car. One of the walkers is Danny/Justin.
In S2 he is Winston! Look at the resemblance!
