Here we are once again at the beginning of a new season of 'The Walking Dead', and with it comes a new opening title sequence!

The era of Angela Kang as showrunner continues and this is reflected in the intro, which features far less of a change as opposed to what we got this time last year, it is very much a continuation of the 'graphic novel/animated/comic' style that Season 9's intro overhaul gave us.

In terms of cast members, and unusally, Christian Serratos (Rosita) has now been moved to where Josh McDermitt (Eugene) previously was - most likely due to Rosita having a more prominent role in the storyline this season, with her now having a child and being the centre of a love quadrangle between herself, Siddiq, Gabriel & Eugene.

Another welcome addition comes in the form of newly promoted series regular Ryan Hurst (Beta). As well as this, Executive Producer Tom Luse has now been replaced by new Executive Producer Joseph Incaprera!

Regarding the visuals, more hanging glass panes have been added to the tree, the panes in question featuring Alexandria's windmill, Shiva to represent the Kingdom, corn for the Hilltop and fish for Oceanside - Thanks go to B. Claimed for pointing that out :)

Other visual changes include a pike to the right hand side of the tree, an extra katana crossed with the existing one after the shot of Rick & Michonne on horseback, the removal of the blood that was on Lucille, a ''Silence the Whispers'' message on the Hilltop gate, and the pikes right before the logo appears - thanks very much to 'Lumps & Evil Wins' and Joel Anthony Lim who noticed these details!

A new, stunning shot has also been added of the now infamous bridge where Rick's apparent sacrifice occurred, and the final, expected change being the logo reverting back to the greenery covered version (after Episode 9.16's intro had a snow covered variation).
