Hershel Rhee

Hershel Rhee is the son of Maggie Greene and Glenn Rhee, born in the fall of 2012 at the Hilltop Colony, several months after the end of the war against the Saviors. His name is a tribute to his maternal grandfather, Hershel Greene, the beloved farmer and veterinarian who was a father figure to many survivors and who tragically died at the hands of the Governor. Maggie decided to give him his father's surname, Rhee, thus perpetuating the legacy of Glenn, who was brutally murdered by Negan with the barbed-wire-wrapped bat called "Lucille" right before her eyes. Hershel was born into a world that was already completely devastated, but unlike other children such as Judith Grimes, he never knew life before the apocalypse. For Hershel, the horror of the walkers is not a break from normalcy, but his only reality. His birth occurred shortly after the end of the war against the Saviors, as the communities began to rebuild society and bring some semblance of civilization back into their lives. Growing up, Hershel became an intelligent and mature child for his age. Unlike other children such as Judith, Gracie, and RJ, who grew up within the protective walls of their communities, Hershel spent much of his time traveling the road with his mother. This made him more experienced and accustomed to the harsh outdoors. On one occasion, while other children were reluctant to eat horse meat, Hershel had no problem with it and mentioned that he had eaten spiders before. Despite his acquired toughness, he still retained some childlike innocence and got along well with the other children, demonstrating a deep love for his mother. One of the heaviest burdens Hershel carries is the murder of his father at the hands of Negan. Although he never met Glenn, his absence fills him with profound sadness. When he finally deduces that Negan is the man who killed his father, he even points a gun at him,

Although he eventually lowered it after someone convinced him, despite that moment of restraint, Hershel harbors a great resentment towards his killer, and on one occasion, when Negan helped him out of an underground hole, Hershel angrily pushed him away.
Interestingly, Negan, for his part, continues to feel a great deal of affection for Hershel. Despite the hatred the boy harbors for him, Negan risked his life to help Maggie on a rescue mission to retrieve the young man. The tragic fate of Glenn and his family seems to have left an indelible mark on Negan, and the Lady notices that Negan feels responsible for the boy whose family he destroyed, something that even Hershel himself cannot perceive. Approximately a year and a half after the end of the war, Maggie gave birth to Hershel and began to lead Hilltop. But the peace would not last forever. Six years after Rick Grimes's supposed death, Maggie decided to leave Hilltop with her son. They joined a group led by Georgie, a mysterious woman dedicated to helping emerging communities. Together, they established and managed new communities far from Hilltop. The time Hershel spent on the road shaped him profoundly. While the other children grew up protected behind the walls, he learned to survive outside, developing a self-reliance uncommon for his age. After Georgie left, Maggie and Hershel joined the Guardians in Meridian, a community that would later be brutally attacked by the Reapers. When the Coalition requested help to face the Whisperers, Maggie and Hershel returned. The Whisperers, led by Alpha, were a group that used walker skins to camouflage themselves and move among the hordes. The war against them was devastating, resulting in the destruction of Hilltop. Despite efforts to rebuild, the community was damaged beyond repair. After the fall of Hilltop, Ma

After the fall of Hilltop, Maggie and the survivors relocated to the Bricks, within Blue Ridge territory. However, the peace was short-lived. A group called the Burazi, led by a former Savior known as "the Croat," kidnapped Hershel and took him to Manhattan. The Croat offered to return Hershel to Maggie in exchange for her handing over Negan, whose skills as a strategist and warrior they needed to occupy Manhattan. Maggie managed to trap Negan and bring him before the Croat, and Hershel was exchanged safely. However, the kidnapping left deep scars on the young man. The Lady, a mysterious advisor to the Burazi, formed a maternal bond with Hershel during his captivity, gaining his trust to the point that he told her the story of his father's murder. Even after the Lady cut off his right pinky toe, the emotional connection remained. Now a teenager, Hershel returned to Manhattan with Maggie. But the young man who returned was not the same helpless child. Hershel was now rebellious, talked back to his mother, and deliberately did the opposite of what she told him. He had abandoned his love of baseball caps—rejecting even one Maggie offered him as a gift—and had developed interests in guitar and drawing. But the most profound change was psychological.
