Well, that's kind of what the comics were like too...

Probably why Kirkman ended them. But AMC just kept it going and going and going.

To be fair, the show is ending at like the exact point the comics ended. It's just the show introduced a lot of other shit.
In the comics, it was basically the Governor, then Terminus (well they were different in the comics), Negan, The Whisperers, and then the Commonwealth.
The show added the Grady Hospital group, the Wolves and the Reapers, and also prolonged the Saviors must more than they needed to. Also the Commonwealth wasn't as villainous in the comics as they appear to be in the show - really more complex and flawed, but not inherently evil

He ended them because he was a sellout and got his TV deal. The comic was supposed to be never ending. Then he made some big changes twice and said it wouldn’t change the comics at all and then he ended them the next issue (right after he made one of the big changes).
Dude is pathetic. And he’s been trying to sue AMC for years, as if he wasn’t greedy enough.

He's pathetic because he ended his comic? And he's greedy because he wants a fair share of the revenue from his show? Get real.

No, he’s pathetic because he sold out when he got his money and went against everything he had promised.
His fair share of revenue? He’s barely involved in the show and the decisions they make. And the ones they do make, they shit all over the source material - so clearly he doesn’t actually care for his project. He got paid, he’s just greedy.
