Is the Commonwealth's connection to the CRM finally revealed in The Walking Dead? As Season 11 Part 2 of The Walking Dead comes to a close, Lance Hornsby appears to be the show's final villain. However, many viewers will be uncomfortably aware of a deeper menace lurking in the shadows: the Civic Republic Military. The CRM, also known as the "helicopter group" responsible for Rick Grimes' disappearance, has appeared in both Fear The Walking Dead and Walking Dead: World Beyond, and is a military force that puts the Commonwealth to shame. It's only a matter of time before The Walking Dead's final season addresses the CRM elephant in the room, which has been wiping out massive populations with minimum effort.

Because the Civic Republic is conspicuously absent from The Walking Dead season 11, many people are speculating about a possible connection between the Civic Republic and the Commonwealth, which might bring these seemingly distinct storylines together in the final block of episodes. Lance Hornsby's military prowess and hidden manipulations could reveal his hidden CRM loyalty, or the zombie hordes Mercer has been fending off were purposefully directed against pamela Milton's village, as we saw the CRM do in Walking Dead: World Beyond.
