'The Walking Dead' spoilers: Original cast member returns this week

Usually when a member of "The Walking Dead" cast leaves the show, it is as a member of the undead, or as someone with a bullet (or axe) in the brain. According to The Macomb Daily on March 1, this week's episode will mark the return of a member from the first season who did not die.

Rick leads his team back to his home town to retrieve some weapons to aid in his fight with the Governor and his minions. With him heading home, he runs into the one man that helped him at the start of his journey, but chose to remain behind, in the safety of his own home: Morgan.

When we last saw Morgan, he and his son were cooped up in their home, a fortress they felt would give them the best chance to stay alive. Things did not go well for Morgan as Rick left him behind. His son, Duane, died and woke up as a zombie. Much like The Governor, Morgan refused to put down his son.

Now, with Rick having changed drastically since leaving Morgan, the two are about to face off at a completely different place in their lives. Are you excited about the return of Morgan to "The Walking Dead?" Let me know your thoughts in the comments below.
