The Walking Dead Villains, Who’s The Worst: Part 11
By Liam O'Leary
The Walking Dead season 11
4) Sebastian Milton
God…what a douche this guy was. Honestly, of all the villains in this final season, Sebastian might have been the one who you most wanted to see get punched in the face.
Why? Well, let’s see: He was the ungrateful spoiled brat son of Pamela Milton, governor of the Commonwealth, grandson of the former president, so he knew he could get away with just about anything. During one of our first meetings with him, after Eugene accidentally gets blood on Sebastian and his girlfriend, Kayla (In the process of saving them from walkers, I remind you), the miserable little turd flips out, berating Eugene and “Stephanie”, earning that well-deserved punch in the face.
This is minor, almost comical, even. His real crimes, though, are anything but.
After his mother finally got sick of his shit, she decided, in an attempt to get him to shape up, to cut him off from his bank accounts. Sebastian, ever the clever douchebag, rather than comply with his mother’s wishes, chose instead to find something to replace his lost funds and began an attempt to stage a heist of the home of a childhood friend of his to retrieve the money his friend’s father left in his safe. These heists were…unsuccessful, to say the least, resulting in the death of at least a dozen Commonwealth citizens, mostly by being ripped apart by the herd of walkers surrounding the house.
He, of course, never faced actual consequences for any of this, instead being sheltered by his mother and mostly lying through his teeth about his involvement in the deaths he caused, despite the massive public outcry.
His worst, though, was still to come. After being exposed as an unmitigated liar by Pamela’s secretary, Max, Sebastian, realizing that only she could have been the one to do it, chased her through the streets of the Commonwealth before attempting to feed her to a walker. Think about this: For being exposed by his own words, Sebastian attempted to feed a woman to a walker.
Sebastian was the personification of all the worst stereotypes of the children of rich and/or powerful people. He was a disrespectful, greedy, selfish, ungrateful brat. Rather than own up to his mistakes, he doubled down on them, getting several innocent people eaten in the process. And finally, when his attempt to worm his way back into the peoples’ good graces (And thus, back into serious consideration to succeed his mother) failed, rather than face the music, he attempts to make Max suffer an even worse fate by trying to feed her to a walker.
If every spoiled rotten child of the rich and powerful decided to start acting like him, the world would be a far worse place
