Negan is the second major primary antagonist in the Comic Series, the first being The Governor and the third being Alpha.

TV Negan is also the first main antagonist to kill more than one main character in one episode (Abraham Ford and Glenn Rhee). Also, each of the three major antagonists has a different status: Negan is alive, The Governor is dead, and Alpha is undead. Also, while still a bad guy, Negan is the least evil of the three, because unlike The Governor, Negan does not really like killing people, he only kills to keep people in line, and he absolutely hates sexual violence (The Governor was a vicious rapist who raped Michonne multiple times). Plus, unlike Alpha who is a feral individual, Negan wants to rebuild civilization, and unlike Alpha, Negan does not kill children or pregnant women. And unlike Alpha, Negan hates rape and does not allow anyone in his group to rape anyone (Alpha allowed many of her male Whisperers to rape her own daughter, Lydia and other female Whisperers, numerous times because she believed that it would make them "stronger"). Arguably the most important ingredient for a custom “Lucille” bat, this faux barbed wire is a safer, less costly alternative to the real thing. In the present-day, Negan speaks to the memory of his late wife while holding the newly rediscovered Lucille bat in front of a roaring fire in Leah’s cabin. “I’m sorry that I left you,” he says, before joking: “I hope you found someone in the afterlife and you are screwing your brains out.” Saying that he misses her and that he “loved the shit out of you”, he adds: “I am going to do your fighting for you.” He then burns Lucille the bat – has Negan turned a corner?

Follow our step by step guide to get the Negan outfit style from the Walking Dead. Negan is a firm fan favourite and his style makes for an excellent Halloween or cosplay costume. You earn what you take,” said the fierce, vicious, brutal, foul-mouthed villain with his twisted sense of humor, Negan. He is an authoritative control freak who controls his subordinates with intimidation, reward, and punishment. Quite a quintessential, typical villain who is a merciless psychopath and has a penchant for power games and provocation. His character is the one who will never give up rather stronger the resistance to his will, the more he seems to enjoy the test of wills. Henry Rollins also auditioned for the role of Negan due to partially inspiring the character, but the role was eventually given to Jeffrey Dean Morgan.

In the early days of the end-of-days, we see a terrified Negan trying and failing to put a walker down by ineffectively stabbing it in the eye. He nearly becomes zombie supper but for Lucille, who fires the couple’s final bullet into the walker’s skull. Hey, we’ve all got to start somewhere when it comes to disposing of the undead, right?

Out of all three of the antagonists, Negan has the longest lifespan and is the only one still alive. He was planned to be killed in Issue 108. However, Robert Kirkman stated that he liked Negan "too much" to kill him off.Negan visits Sasha, a captive, and discovers one of his Saviors, David, attempting to rape her. He states that rape is against their rules and will not tolerate such behavior. David apologizes, but Negan rams a knife through his throat, stating he does not accept his apology. He then leaves Sasha with a choice: kill herself or kill David once he reanimates to show her willingness to work with him. At some point, Dwight and his companions fled the Saviors with stolen supplies, prompting Negan to send a group led by Wade to retrieve them.

As well as his dislike towards rape, Negan also dislikes killing people at random, which is never shown by any of the other main antagonists in the series, save for Chris and The Hunters. Negan really only wants to install fear in other people and tries to keep as many people alive as possible, hence why he called his group "The Saviors". Also, he is willing to spare anyone whom he sees as potentially useful and can be reasonable during negotiations, and he is a man of his word as he promises to help communities clear out walkers near their homes and will not destroy their communities, as long as they give him half of everything they have once a week. Negan joins Maggie to reclaim her village from the Reapers, sensing her intention to kill him. When they get separated from the group, they reluctantly work together and eventually unite with Gabriel and Elijah. Negan agrees to train Maggie as a Whisperer in exchange for her giving up revenge. Negan is the fourth major primary antagonist in the TV Series, the first being Shane Walsh, the second being The Governor, and the third being Gareth. Fast-forwarding again to the bar interrogation, the biker gang leader demands that Negan tells them where the doctors are. He gives in and circles where they are on a map, and the gang goes after them: Negan is later freed after his intel proves to be correct, leaving him consumed with guilt at selling the doctors out. After the outbreak, Negan meets a group led by a man named Dwight. Slowly, he takes control of this group and renames them the Saviors, ruling them with a firm hand. He also creates a deadly weapon by wrapping a baseball bat with barbed wire, naming it Lucille after his late wife.

According to Jesus, Negan has been quoted as saying that they need to understand things “right off the bat.” I’m certain the pun was intended,knowing that Negan’s weapon of choice is his brutal baseball swatter Lucille.
