While “The Walking Dead” may have come to an end after 11 seasons, the zombie-apocalypse drama has spawned plenty of spin-offs set within the show’s ever-expanding universe, with more on the way.

On Friday, “The Walking Dead” hosted a session at this year’s Comic Con in San Diego, with producers and actors bowing out this year due to the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes.

AMC president of entertainment Dan McDermott, however, was on hand, with some big announcements, revealing that “The Walking Dead: Dead City” — which follows Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) — has been renewed for a second season.

During the session, AMC also debuted the first trailer for “The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon”, which is set in France.
