The Walking Dead World Beyond, Season 2: Who’s THE WORST?

The Walking Dead World Beyond: Lt. Colonel Elizabeth Kublek

Again, we explain why Lieutenant Colonel Kublek is one of The Walking Dead: World Beyond’s biggest villains. I find myself with such a case of deja vu.

In this season, the Lt. Colonel made an even stronger case for her condemnation than she had last season. We learned that she led the destruction of Campus Colony and the destruction of Omaha, a city of one hundred thousand people.

That one statistic puts her head and shoulders above all other Walking Dead villains. No other character across the Walking Dead universe has a confirmed body count to their name higher than hers, except maybe her boss, Major General Beale.

On top of that body count is the fact that she used a combination of mustard gas and walkers to carry it out. Have you seen what people look like after being hit with mustard gas? I’ve seen footage of it. People frozen as they died, clutching at their throats, looking like corpses uncovered from Pompeii; it’s awful. She did that to them. If that weren’t enough, those who didn’t die choking were mauled by the dead, managing to be an even worse fate.

To add a cherry on top, once news of the mass carnage (But not its perpetrators, of course) reached the Civic Republic, she got on CRTV and lied to the entire community about it, completely straight-faced, as an accomplished liar would.

Lieutenant Colonel Kublek could (And did) attempt to excuse her participation in the massacres in Nebraska as being necessary for the sake of trying to find a cure for the virus, but, when you’ve destroyed something close a quarter of the known population of the United States, why you were doing it becomes irrelevant.
