How would The Walking Dead pike victims handle the Whisperers?
By Joe LaBrosse
Alek (Jason Kirkpatrick)
With Ozzy’s death, leadership of the Highwaymen would probably fall to Alek.
While we know very little about Alek’s past, his heroic sacrifice in “The Calm Before” indicates that he is a good person who knows right from wrong. A personality like this leading the Highwaymen would make the group’s transition into life at the communities a whole lot smoother than it has been so far in season 10.
Perhaps Alek could also provide a calming presence to angry Highwaymen – like Margo – who desperately want vengeance for Ozzy’s death, no matter the cost. Or, he could fall into anger like the rest, and we would see a similar storyline play out with their group.
