Default 1st Quilt: Thread color advice

Hello all!

For some reason, I watched a few videos, read a few blogs, and decided I could make a quilt. I blame all of you for making it look so easy. haha

So here I am weeks later, after cutting and re-cutting, sewing and re-sewing, finally ready to make the sandwich and start the quilting process and I just can't decide on a thread color. I've tried a few different colors (black, red, gray, white) on some scrap, but they all seem to take away from the print.

I am open to any and all suggestions. This quilt will be for my stepson who is a Walking Dead fanatic, so I was thinking that a geometric quilting design would be more masculine, but I'm open to changing that plan if someone has a better idea. I'm attaching a photo of one of the rows and the backing fabric I plan to use.

I look forward to hearing what you all suggest!
