OA page 6 -- first app of Douglas Monroe
First Appearance of Douglas Monroe, Regina Monroe, Ron Anderson and Olivia.
The survivors have been taken into a walled-in, zombie-free community. Aaron, a recruiter for the walled off community, goes to tell everyone that they've found new arrivals. Rick says to Abraham that they're going to interview them all and he thinks it's weird. Abraham says everything is going to be different from now on.
Aaron tries to cheer Rick up by telling him Carl will make new friends here. Rick agrees and is surprised to see the children so happy again. Aaron explains that they're trying to live the life they had before and tells him that Douglas is ready to see him, he's the de-facto leader of zone. Aaron shows them his house, and tells them he's waiting. Rick goes in to see him.
They are shown around and invited to one-on-one interviews with Douglas Monroe, the de facto leader of the Alexandria Safe-Zone. In this discussion, the reader learns a little about the origins of the town and Douglas himself. There was some sort of power struggle and some fairly heinous activities which were stopped.[1] Lastly, Douglas welcomes Rick and his group to the Safe-Zone.
Outside, Rick recommends Andrea go and see Douglas. She goes, Aaron says his friends have left to take showers. Suddenly Rick realizes he can't see Carl anywhere. Aaron calms him down, and tells him Carl is playing with other children along with Sophia. Rick calms down, and changes the topic to the showers. Andrea arrives at Douglas', and introduces herself. Douglas asks what her job was before the zombie apocalypse, and she says she was a file clerk at a lawyer's office. She mentions she is good with a gun. Douglas asks is she single, as it supposedly helps them to plan the housing.
While Rick's shaving his moustache, a woman named Olivia knocks on his door. She brings some clothes to him and tells him she can cut his hair if he likes. Rick asks how is this all possible, and Olivia tells him a man named Alexander Davidson started to build the fence. Also, the area is run by an isolated solar power grid. Rick thinks that it is amazing but Olivia says it doesn't work like it was supposed to. Rick still thinks this is great, compared to where they're been hiding.
Abraham and Maggie praise new Rick's haircut. Rosita is inside talking to Douglas and Michonne tells Rick they're about to go on some kind of tour around the zone. Rick goes to see Carl, who tells him that everything is great. Rick asks one of the other children, a boy called Ron, what happened to his face. He says a ball hit him in the face, and Rick says it makes him look tough. Rick leaves and tells Carl to have fun. Suddenly, an older woman runs towards Rick, apologizing. Rick asks who she is, and Aaron tells him she is Douglas' wife, Regina Monroe.
Regina rushes to her house, where Douglas and Heath are. She's mad about the new arrivals, and wants Douglas to tell her immediately what he knows about them. He tells her they're good people, and they have nothing to worry about. Heath says he might turn to another Davidson, which enrages Douglas. Douglas grabs Heath and tells him he never wants to hear that man's name ever again, after what he made them do.
