Andrea was driving me back to college. Classes were starting in a few days. I was a physical education major... a junior. As far away as a lived I should have flown back but we always enjoyed our little bonding trips.
―Amy to the group about her life prior to the outbreak.[src]

Amy is a survivor of the outbreak in Image Comics' The Walking Dead. She is the sister of Andrea and a member of the Atlanta Camp.

Post-Apocalypse[]

Days Gone Bye[]
