George R.R. Martin's Ice and Fire saga "remains unfinished, so it's not yet possible to say how closely Game of Thrones' ending aligns with what the author has in mind," says Josh Wigler. "Now, thanks to a shocking unannounced series finale, The Walking Dead fandom finds itself in an opposite position: the comics have come to an end, concluded with no warning by (Robert) Kirkman and (Charlie) Adlard in the pages of The Walking Dead #193 — and no matter what the TV series has up its sleeve for whenever it decides to pull the trigger on a conclusion, we can already say with certainty that it will be fundamentally different from Kirkman and Adlard's finale."
