Season 4 Artwork Speculations

[Witch_Doctor]

The artwork for season 4 is up and loaded with juicy tidbits for those of us who are clue-philes. Lets tear in to it, shall we?
I'll get the ball rolling.

1. Puppet master theme.
2. More tattoos of chemical and Voodoo symbols.
3. Mannequins representing Inklings? Humans? Zombies? EVERYBODY?
4. The Colony wall at the lower center.
5. X-rays of TOWTM's arms.
6. TOWTM is still wearing the suit.
7. *No visible damage or disfigurement on TOWTM's hands. (Unless the light shining on the left hand is actually light shining through a hole)
8. Possibly seven mannequins, the same as the remaining Inklings.

*If this character doesn't have a disfigured hand and the one seen by Riley in the Hospital does, then maybe there are two TOWTMS.
Edit:

I'll just go ahead and confirm that's the disfigurement... slightly lessened in this rendition.

And I can see Burt Getting giving Scratch just one more little scratch in this way

But on topic.. It looks like Ink is the big puppet master.. I just so hope that it's not going to be the case of killing the puppetmaster will also kills the puppets(zombies)

Hi.

1. Puppet master theme.
2. More tattoos of chemical and Voodoo symbols.
3. Mannequins representing Inklings? Humans? Zombies? EVERYBODY?
4. The Colony wall at the lower center.
5. X-rays of TOWTM's arms.
6. TOWTM is still wearing the suit.
7. *No visible damage or disfigurement on TOWTM's hands. (Unless the light shining on the left hand is actually light shining through a hole)
8. Possibly seven mannequins, the same as the remaining Inklings.

After having a very broad scope on the size of the zombocalypse first in season #2 (how far it spread south and how different zombies behaved) and in season #3 (the US-national and worldwide scope of it), this new season #4 artwork reconfigurates the focus: let's get back to where everything started - so let's focus on anything in/ around Los Angeles. But since most places of LA were already devastated or left alone (the Tower, the Arena; Dunbar, the Mall) The Colony will be the base of operations for the survivors and the target for Ink, the puppet-master.
The next thing I see is that the whole story around the survivors was and is about their struggle with Ink's army - the Arena, the second half of the War, Ink's first intrusion of the Tower, the "Hen"-recovery in the Hopsital ... It was always about the conflicts between humans striving and fighting for survival, while Ink's zombies aimed ... at survival or something else as well.
And over the many chapters and episodes it was established that Ink is the key-figure in this story - the key figure on the side of the zombies. We have an abstract understanding about some of the purposes of the Arena and the Hospital; especially regarding the Little Ones we theorize based on the safe assumption that the Little Ones are kind of a breed produced or at least supervised by Ink; and we also know that them zeehs follow Ink's orders - no matter what type of zeeh we speak of. So, that's what the puppeteer-theme seems to sum up.

But there is a wicked idea that has struck me as well: What, if the behavior and reactions of the remaining human survivors is actually something which falls under the control of Ink as well?

Of course! Remember the arrow Riley shot at the motherfucker that he caught in mid-flight? Well, it seems he didn't catch it so clean after all.....

Well, no. He got shot in chapter 11 in the hand. The extent of the damage would be worse than depicted.

Ah, but remember Burt shot him in the hand when he was running from the Tower.
