![]() He is the only one to have not been responsible for the death of another prisoner survivor and was not killed by another prisoner survivor (Tomas killed Big Tiny, and Oscar killed Andrew).He is the only one to have said any lines in the prisoners' debut appearance in the Season 3 premiere, and the only one to have lines in all of his appearances in the show.He is the only one who is credited as a supporting character.He is the only one to be Caucasian-American (Oscar, Andrew, and Big Tiny are all African-American and Tomas is Hispanic-American).TV Series Axel is unique amongst his fellow prisoner survivors in many ways:.In the episode "Hounded", Daryl told Rick that Axel was in the generator room trying to fix the generators, further hinting that Axel was a mechanic. TV Series Axel may very well have been a motorcycle mechanic before the apocalypse due to his interest in Daryl's bike and stating that he's "pretty handy with a wrench".While Comic Series Axel says his famous catchphrase "You follow me?" at the end of most of his sentences, TV Series Axel says his catchphrase a lot less frequently, having said it only a few times.Also, while Comic Series Axel is quite skilled at using firearms and is not afraid to use them, TV Series Axel is actually scared of gunfire and doesn't know how to use firearms, even though Carol teaches him how to ready a gun, he is unfortunately killed by The Governor before he ever had the chance to use his gun.Axel's appearance in the TV Series is quite different from the Comic Series: In the Comic Series, he is a heavyset man with a full beard and a biker appearance, but in the TV Series, he is much thinner, has both a beard and a moustache and has a redneck appearance.Also, his death in both versions are very similar: he is shot mid-sentence in the head by The Governor, who is standing outside of the Prison fences holding a scoped rifle.In both the Comic Series and TV Series, Axel is the last of the prisoner survivors to die.Axel died when helping the group defend the prison, during Woodbury's attempt to take it for themselves.Ĭomic Series Volume 3: Safety Behind Bars He was also known for ending most of his sentences with "You follow me?". ![]() Axel was also slightly perverted, 'accidentally' walking in on Lori and Carol while they were showering and would make sexual comments about the female members of the group. He helped to clean out the zombies in the prison and when the prison got overrun or attacked and would help to burn the corpses. He will make you laugh and cry in the same offering.” Appearances TV Series Season 3Īxel is a main character first encountered in Issue 13 of Image Comics' The Walking Dead and is a grizzly looking, old biker imprisoned for armed robbery he survived the initial outbreak locked inside The Prison cafeteria, along with Dexter, Andrew, and Thomas Richards.Īxel was a trustworthy character, even for a prison inmate. He has a wry sense of humor and ironic quick wit. He wants to associate and assimilate into the group of survivors, to the point of trying too hard to be accepted. Overview Lew Temple on Axel: “Axel is a gregarious Southern redneck-biker type, who has big heart no doubt," "He has a sense of compassion for his fellow man, but he is not as meek as he might appear, and though he has had to survive with four other hardened criminals, sans Oscar, this brave new world is something entirely different for him. ![]()
