Maggie Greene

About

Maggie Greene (later Maggie Rhee in the television series) is a fictional character from the comic book series The Walking Dead, portrayed by Lauren Cohan in the television adaptation of the same name.
In the comic book series, Maggie becomes the surrogate mother to Sophia following the suicide of the girl’s mother, Carol. Maggie is initially insecure and depressed, attempting suicide at one point after her entire family is killed. Over time, she hardens and becomes independent. Maggie later becomes involved with the war against the Saviors, during which she encourages the people to follow Rick Grimes instead of Gregory and Negan. The people of The Hilltop listen to her and she becomes their de facto leader. After the war, Maggie has a son named after her father, Hershel. She remains fiercely protective of her children, as well as Carl Grimes, while being at odds with her predecessor, Gregory. Many people question her leadership due to her higher concern for her inner group, but there are some who idolize her, including Dante, who is shown to have feelings for her.
In the television series, Maggie does not share the insecurities of her comic book counterpart, and is more independent…
