Warning: There are spoilers ahead for Sunday's "The Walking Dead,""The Key."
Sunday's "The Walking Dead" introduced a group of new characters led by a mysterious woman named Georgie (Jayne Atkinson).
While the name didn't ring any bells in "The Walking Dead" universe, fans thought she looked a lot like a newer character from the comics, Pamela Milton.

This lady looks just like the Commonwealth leader Pamela Milton they just introduced in the comics. If this is her then this is way too early to be introducing them. #TheWalkingDead

Who is Pamela?
Pamela Milton is the leader of a group of about 50,000 survivors called the Commonwealth. They're located pretty far from Rick and the crew in Ohio.
Her character doesn't appear for some time in the "Walking Dead" universe so fans were surprised to see someone who reminded them of Pamela on Sunday's episode.
The two even share a resemblance.
Why it's probably not Pamela
INSIDER spoke with Atkinson about her new role on the show. She was also of the belief she may be Pamela at first.
"I found a character that I thought she might be like in the "Walking Dead" lore, but this is definitely [showrunner] Scott [Gimple's] brainchild and I was told that she might possibly have been a professor," Atkinson told INSIDER.
"There's a picture of her [Pamela], my son showed it to me," she added. "She looks a little like I would look on 'House of Cards,' almost presidential or some sort of leadership position. But her name isn't Georgie so that could be just a red herring."
