The Contenders: Human vs Zombie
When: Walking Dead: "Better Angels" Season 2 Episode 12
The Battle: Shane Walsh was a perfect example of how an average man can turn into a monster both figuratively and literally. After the zombie apocalypse began, Shane abandoned his comatose buddy Rick and then proceeded to start sleeping with his wife. When Rick finally returns, he and Shane were constantly butting heads on how to best ensure the group's safety. With Shane quite willing to murder, he lured Rick deep in the woods to put him down Old Yeller style.
Rick, being no dummy, caught on to the treachery and tearfully turned the tables on his former best friend by stabbing him in the gut. As Rick had a good cry over Shane’s dead body, the corpse rose again as a "walker." Fortunately, before zombie Shane could get a bite in, Rick’s young son Carl puts a bullet in his head, thus ending Shane’s life for good.
Winner: Rick, with a sweet assist from Carl
