That said, the axe-wielding soldier plays a big role in what seems to be the show\u2019s next big storyline: the Commonwealth.<\/p>\n<p>In the source material, Mercer is the head of the Commonwealth\u2019s military operations (yes, the Commonwealth is big and well-supplied enough to have its own military). He disagrees with the corruption at the heart of the group and is looking for a way to oust the community\u2019s villainous leader, Pamela, and he eventually teams up with Rick and his group to do just that.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_He_a_Good_Guy\"><\/span>Is He a Good Guy?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>He sure is! Mercer disagrees with the way the Commonwealth is run; namely the discord, violence and inequality at its heart.

But it\u2019s possible the mask won\u2019t be sticking around after this season, if this is another instance like Michonne in Season 2, where her face was obscured because the character hadn\u2019t been cast yet. And the signature weapon, axes, is right. It wouldn\u2019t be the first time TWD has introduced a comics character in an unexpected way.<\/p>\n<p>Really, what we\u2019re hinging on here is the weapons. Mercer\u2019s so closely associated with dual axes that we don\u2019t see who else this could be \u2014 it&#8217;d be like someone else walking into the show with a katana. If this is someone with comics roots, we\u2019re betting it\u2019s the Commonwealth\u2019s military man with a heart of gold. Granted, he&#8217;s associated with Maggie rather than the Commonwealth, but if Maggie&#8217;s part of the Commonwealth, that doesn&#8217;t change anything.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_Else_Could_He_Be\"><\/span>Who Else Could He Be?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s also possible that this marks the long-awaited return of Heath (Corey Hawkins), who was last seen in Season 7, Episode 6, \u201cSwear.\u201d Angela Kang has said he\u2019s associated with CRM and the helicopter group, though, so unless he got away, it\u2019s not super likely Heath would resurface until the Rick <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">movies<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If it\u2019s not Heath or Mercer, then we think this is probably a show-only character, like Daryl, Beth (Emily Kinney) or Henry (Matthew Lintz).
