Were the story lines with Hilltop/Negan a long time ago, or is it fairly new material? I was just a little curious as to how close the series/comics are to being concurrent.

I liked that episode too, Gregory not so much.

The show right now is in comic issue 195 ish. This season will probably end on issue 100. Issue 152 of the comic comes out in March. While there are big differences between the comic and the show they were mainly during the early seasons. Over the last 2 seasons the show has followed the comics a lot closer. Some changes can't be corrected because the character is dead in the show but still alive in the comics but they have made up for that with the writing of other characters.
