Negan (left) is a tall, white man with slicked-back black hair with a receding hairline and a salt-and-pepper beard.

Maggie (right) is in profile looking at him. She's a white woman with chin-length brown hair, and she's wearing a long-sleeved, black shirt underneath a brown, leather vest. She has a black backpack over her shoulder.

Information on 'Dead City' has been scant so far, but its showrunner and cast filled in blanks for the fans at WonderCon 2023.
