Chris, surname unknown, is a fictional zombie holocaust survivor and a recurring character featured in The Walking Dead ongoing comic book series published by Image Comics. He first appeared in The Walking Dead #7 in April, 2004.

Biography[]

Chris was a young man from Georgia who was dating an African American woman named Julie in the days leading up to the zombie apocalypse. Prior to the zombie outbreak, Chris had left his home following a feud with his parents and came to live with Julie and her father, Tyreese.

To escape the growing hordes of the undead, Tyreese, Julie and Chris escaped into the wilderness where they came upon another survival group led by Rick Grimes. They joined the group and Chris and Julie were often assigned the task of being babysitters to the children in the group - a chore they both despised.

Along their travels, they stayed briefly at the Wiltshire Estates, then spent some time at the Greene farm. When things became too heated there, they moved along to an abandoned prison.

Chris and Julie expressed their love for one another, as well as their growing sense of innate independence. To this end, they agreed to engage in a suicide pact, wherein they would each fire a fatal gunshot into the other simultaneously. While Chris held up his end of the arrangement, Julie faltered, and Chris shot her in the chest, killing her.

When the others heard the gunshot, they rushed into the cell and found Julie's bleeding body. Tyreese cradled his daughter, but seconds later, she reanimated. Chris put her down with a second shot to the head. Tyreese flew into a rage, and strangled Chris to death. When Chris subsequently turned into a zombie, Tyreese mutilated him, putting him down once and for all.

Tyreese took the bodies of both Chris and his daughter into the prison yard and burned the remains.
