Yeah... And I'm still here. Aren't I? Listen to me, Maggie... Really, stop and listen to me. Look in my eyes, you'll see that what I'm telling you is one-hundred percent true. C'mon. You don't need to hide anything from me. I love you. I love you. Not that flirty girl I met at the farm house... Not that sex machine I lived with at the prison... You. Every flaw, every quirk... I love everything about you-- Everything that makes you... You. I love you, Maggie.
~ Glenn professing his genuine love for Maggie.
It's weird you know... How fast things are changing. I can't stop thinking about tomorrow. I never used to do that.
~ Glenn reflecting on what the world has become.

Glenn Rhee is a major character in Image Comics' The Walking Dead.

A pizza delivery boy from Atlanta, Glenn was caught up in the zombie apocalypse and became a supply runner for Rick Grimes' survival group and a trusted friend. He would later become the husband of Maggie Greene, the father of Hershel Greene Jr. and the adopted father of Sophia Peltier following her mother's suicide. Eventually he is beaten to death by Negan Smith in retaliation for Rick killing his men however his death is avenged when Negan is defeated and imprisoned.

He was voiced by Nick Herman in the game.

Appearance[]

Glenn is a skinny yet tall man of Korean-American descent in his early twenties. He has black shaggy hair, chin stubbles and wears a New York Yankees cap. He briefly shaved his head bald during his time at the prison.

Personality[]

Glenn is a selfless, kind and loyal person risking his life almost daily by going on supply runs for the group and helping them fight off walkers. He also had a snarky, immature, comedic and sarcastic side getting drunk at a party in Alexandria. His initiative to put himself in danger in Atlanta to get supplies was a vital necessity for the group. His jack-of-all-trades knowledge had proven useful several times, such as being able to hot-wire a car and siphon petrol. His youth and somewhat natural optimistic, humorous attitude frequently kept the survivor group's spirits up, and his loyalty to Rick and the group made him one of Rick's closest and dependable allies. He was shown always willing to do what was necessary to keep everyone together; even if it put himself in danger.

Glenn had more obvious weaknesses despite his strengths. He often displayed a tendency to act before thinking, such as when he risked his life carelessly to confront the obviously hostile Bruce who knew who he was, and when he crashed the car into the Prison in panic, endangering himself and everyone to save Maggie. His tendency to panic was also highlighted when under extreme pressure, such as when The Governor captured the trio and beat him down without any resistance. He was disabled by pure shock and fear, and only snapped out of it once Martinez saved him.

Glenn was also not as physically able or as emotionally hardened as other members of his group, and often left the situations which needed violence, such as killing off the Hunters and Scavengers, to other members of the group.

History[]

Glenn Rhee was born sometime in the year 1981 and was born and raised in Macon Georgia. When he became an adult he went into a massive debt from his apartment and car payments and was forced to move back in with his parents to which he had a bad relationship with. He also acquired various questionable skills while he was in college, knowing how to hotwire, a skill he used to steal cars to make a quick buck off them. His situation got so bad he whished for anything to get out of it, a wish that would come through when the zombie apocalypse happened and society crumbled.
