Fear The Walking Dead, Survival Rule Of The Week: Being A Survivor

Victor Strand is one of the best survivors in Fear The Walking Dead

You can say what you want about Victor Strand as a character, but one thing you have to give him is that he’s one hell of a survivor. In spite of all the hairy situations he’s found himself in throughout Fear The Walking Dead, he always manages to find a way out of it. That, if nothing else, is admirable, even if some of his other behaviors aren’t.

How does he keep surviving? I could get all meta and say that “because the writers want to keep him alive,” but not only is that kind of self-defeating, it’s also not entirely correct. You see, there have been things that Strand has done that have ensured his continued survival, things which you can duplicate should you ever find yourself in a zombie apocalypse.

So, because of this, in this week’s Survival Rule Of The Week, we’ll look back at Victor Strand’s time in the apocalypse and find some of the smarter things he’s done to keep himself alive when some many others wound up dead.
