'The Walking Dead' Season 5: Rick Still Badass (EXCLUSIVE PHOTO)

*** POTENTIAL SEASON 4 SPOILERS AHEAD ***

The last time we saw the gang in the Season 4 finale of "The Walking Dead," things weren't looking good.

Cornered by the mysterious group at Terminus and eventually taken captive, Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and most of the others are held prisoner in a railway car.

The last thing we heard from Rick? "They're gonna feel pretty stupid when they find out ... they're screwing with the wrong people."

This exclusive Season 5 photo provided by AMC shows that Rick means what he says, and he's by no means finished this insane journey through zombie-apocalypse America. At the very least, he's outside of the railway car, and that's a good thing. We think.

We personally cannot wait for the Season 5 premiere.

"The Walking Dead" Season 5 premieres on AMC on October 12, 2014 at 9 p.m. ET/8 p.m. CT.
