Badger is the secondary antagonist of Telltale's The Walking Dead: A New Frontier.
He is a high-ranking member of the New Frontier and one of Joan's enforcers, serving as the second archenemy of Javier García.
He was voiced by Jon Curry.
What Makes Him Pathetic?[]
- Under Joan's orders, he, along with Lonnie and Max, raided multiple communities while killing survivors. Unlike the other bandits, Badger visibly enjoyed sadistically doing all of them.
- He knocked out Javi alongside Max, while having him dumped in Rufus’ van to be driven to Richmond and punished for his “crimes” of defending his allies.
- Shot Mariana García, a ten-year-old girl, in the head in front of her uncle, stepmother and brother, and not caring she was also the daughter of his superior. He openly admits he would do it again if he could, and called her "a little bitch".
- Attacked Richmond alongside Max, while taking Conrad’s girlfriend Francine as a hostage, then having her fingers cut off with a bolt cutter before killing her off.
- Ordered a raider to ram Prescott's gates with a truck, with the said truck full of Walkers in the back, while using tear gas at the inhabitants in order to destroy the settlement.
- Even when confronted by Javi, he shows no remorse whatsoever, and tries to provoke him into killing him. He even taunts Conrad's revenge for Francine as "nothing".
What Makes Him a Pinhead?[]
- He's very idiotic and short-sighted as many of his actions backfired on him, such as his murders of Mariana and Kate Garcia led to Javi hunting him non-stop.
- He openly bragged about killing Mariana when multiple people were in earshot.
- Unlike other members of the New Frontier, he doesn't even bother to hide his blatant sadism beneath a façade, which makes himself an easy and open target to the protagonists.
- His death could've been avoidable as he knocked Javi down right next to a rifle, which Javi used to kill Badger.
