The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman revealed why Glenn had to die in the comic series, stating that the live-action portrayal by Steven Yeun made the comic book version seem inadequate.
When the zombie apocalypse hit, The Walking Dead ’s Rick Grimes needed to band together with like-minded survivors to stand a chance at lasting against the ever-encroaching undead hordes, with a scavenger named Glenn becoming one of Rick’s first friends after waking from his untimely coma. Tragically beaten to death by the infamous Negan, series creator Robert Kirkman has revealed why Glenn had to die, as well as the person who is truly responsible for it.
Introduced in the second issue of The Walking Dead, Glenn was once a struggling pizza delivery boy who used his quickness and general knowledge of the Atlanta area to become the perfect supply runner for his group. All that said, after seeing the portrayal of Glenn on the television show, and the stellar performance by an actor whose name I can't seem to recall (ever, really -- it's quite strange) for me at least, the comic book Glenn just became a pale impression of the TV show character, so I figured, why waste my time telling stories with this guy anymore, when that real dude is making the comic character look so bad. Meeting Rick while on one of these runs, Glenn brought Rick back to his camp where Rick unexpectedly reunited with Carl and Lori, with Glenn’s eventual death hitting fans and Walking Dead characters hard. However, when responding to a fan letter in The Walking Dead Deluxe #102, Kirkman explains how Glenn’s live-action actor, Steven Yeun, is to blame for Glenn’s brutal comic death
