Fans of The Walking Dead show have been speculating whether Merle Dixon (Michael Rooker), brother of Daryl Dixon, will ever make an appearance on the show after being abandoned on a rooftop with his hand cut off.

AMC has officially confirmed that we’ll be seeing the lovable redneck on season 3 of The Walking Dead. Check out his new Mega Man cannon below. I’m going to assume that he’s shh-ing one of the survivors as he’s about to pummel T-Dog to death in the face. I’d be pissed off too if a guy bails out on me with the keys to the handcuffs, leaving me to rot and fight off zombies alone.

AMC has also recently released the first official photo of The Governor (David Morrissey), the new obstacle for Rick Grimes and his crew.
