Last week on Into the Badlands, Sunny (Daniel Wu) and his not-by-choice sidekick Bajie (Nick Frost), escaped from the mining colony but encountered a problem in a gigantic wall that separates them from the Badlands. Meanwhile, Sunny’s child is alive and well as Veil (Madeleine Mantock) is protected by the very much alive and thriving Baron Quinn (Marton Csokas), who is busy rebuilding an army of new clippers. Over the first two episodes, the dominant force has been the ladies as both The Widow (Emily Beecham) and Lydia (Orla Brady) asserted battlefield dominance in gory fashion. The Widow is keen to take over the entire Badlands once and for all, and sets her sights on Lydia’s son Ryder (Oliver Stark), who seems unimpressed with his mother’s attempts to help. While many fight for power and control, M.K. (Aramis Knight) struggles to keep his inner demons at bay at a monastery, being tutored there by The Master (Chipo Chung).

(Aramis Knight) is training at a monastery trying to control his powers and the Badlands are up for grabs as The Widow (Emily Beecham) tries to consolidate the territory lost by Baron Quinn (Marton Csokas) who was thought dead”¦ that is until he turns up holding a beautiful new baby: Veil’s baby, Sunny’s baby.

In the late Fall of 2015, AMC debuted Into the Badlands, and it took me all of 5-minutes to be floored by the show. A wild mix of post-apocalyptic steampunk, techno-feudalism and martial arts, Into the Badlands stars Daniel Wu as Sunny, the head clipper for Baron Quinn (Marton Csokas). The Barons control their piece of land, and with guns a thing of the past, young warriors are trained to fight with blades and other weapons. The fight sequences and choreography were some of the best ever for television and a standout for the series. When a strange teen, M.K. (Aramis Knight) who unleashes superhuman power when he bleeds, show up in the Badlands everything changes for Sunny. Sunny begins having conflicts of self; his loyalty torn between his father-like Baron, his pregnant girlfriend Veil (Madeleine Mantock), and the world beyond the Badlands. In the end, a mammoth war broke out, Quinn stabbed Sunny in the back, and Sunny and M.K. attempted to escape, only to fall into a trap.

Spoilers for the season premiere of Into the Badlands below:

Just a quick reminder for everyone before you head off into the weekend seeking adventures. AMC’s post-apocalyptic steampunk martial arts drama Into the Badlands is set to return for season two this weekend, kicking off Sunday night at 10:00PM after the latest episode of The Walking Dead.

For those unfamiliar with the show its first season was a hell of a lot of fun and did have its fan base, but struggled to find a large audience, especially after The Walking Dead‘s season ended. This led to much uncertainty when it came to the question of whether there would be a second season, and a painful wait for fans before AMC finally decided to give it another go. Because of this, the more eyes watching when the show returns the better, of course, and better than that is those eyes continuing to watch after this season of Dead concludes.

AMC has released a pair of new teaser trailers for Into the Badlands season two, titled “The Widow’s Revenge” and ‘Sunny is Ready for a Fight.”

Each of the two teasers play similarly with the two title characters, the Widow and Sunny, training while quick shots from the new season rapidly flash away on your screen. They’re both effective teases, showing off lots of intriguing imagery but far too fast to know for sure what you’re seeing. Many eager fans will no doubt be wearing out their pause buttons as they try to get a better look.
