Unfortunately, Merle does die in The Walking Dead. In the penultimate episode of the third season, Merle decides to make the ultimate sacrifice in order to protect his little brother, Daryl. He decides to take Michonne and deliver her to The Governor to prevent anymore deaths. However, The Governor plans to ambush the one who delivers her and take Michonne alive. Merle then frees Michonne when he has a change of heart about the plan.

Merle then heads to a bar parking lot and drinks whiskey with Fast and Loose by Motorhead playing in the car. He lures a large horde of walkers to Woodbury where The Governor and his allies stand for the deal. When The Governor's men see the walkers, they open fire which allows Merle to start shooting each of them with his M4A1 assault rifle. After killing Allen's son, Ben instead of The Governor (after walking in front of Merle's scope), Merle is attacked by a walker, which allows Martinez to beat down Merle and The Governor eventually takes him and beats him to death. After biting off two of his fingers and breaking his bayonet arm, The Governor shoots Merle in the chest and kills him.

When Daryl goes to find Merle, he confronts multiple corpses along with Ben's body, which is being eaten by a walker, better known as Merle Dixon himself. The walker Merle staggers towards his baby brother who pushes him back three times. Angry at The Governor for killing his brother, Daryl stabs Merle in the head multiple times, killing the walker and leaving Daryl to break down into tears.
