"The Walking Dead" season 4 episode 9 promo

Robert Kirkman told AMC that episode 9 of season 4 will include loads of stuff from the comic book, via Examiner.

"Episode 9 will probably be the episode that's closest to a direct adaptation from the comic book aside from the premiere episode. It's been a lot of fun for me working on them because I'm basically just rewriting something I've already written, which means I get to go back in and go, 'Woah, what'd you do there? Let's fix that."

Coming back to the promo, Carl walks alone, Rick looks at his wounded face while Beth with a blazing light of fire in her. If you notice most of the footage may have been from the first half of season 4.

Bob and Sasha walk uphill which looks like they are looking for the bus that left the prison. On the other hand, Tyreese hacks away at walkers.

In the end of the promo, Carl bangs on a door and screams at someone behind the door, "Wake up." Who is that someone, here? Is it Rick who is saddened after the alleged death of baby Judith? Is Carl addressing the Greene girls who are mourning the death of Hershel?

"The Walking Dead" season 4 returns with new episodes on AMC on February 9, 2014.
