Every wolf pack has an alpha. In The Last of Us season 2, the Washington Liberation Front (W.L.F.), also called Wolves, have a leader of their own. His name is Isaac Dixon character Last of Us. And in episode 4 of the hit HBO drama, The Last of Us, Isaac Dixon character Last of Us finally makes his debut as the show’s most intimidating villain yet.
But who is the Isaac Dixon character Last of Us? What’s his story in the original video games? And how might his lore from the source material hint about what’s to come in the TV show?
Westworld and The Batman actor Jeffrey Wright reprises his role as Isaac Dixon character Last of Us, the character in The Last of Us Part II, in season 2 of the HBO adaptation. But just because both versions of Isaac share Wright in common, it may not mean they’re totally the same. Here’s everything we know about the Isaac Dixon character Last of Us from The Last of Us Part II, and what that might mean for season 2.
Who is Isaac Dixon character Last of Us in The Last of Us Part II?
Just like Kaitlyn Dever’s Abby and the enemy factions of Seraphites and Wolves, Isaac Dixon character Last of Us originates from the 2020 video game The Last of Us Part II. While Abby is arguably the main antagonist for most of the story (and certainly Ellie would agree), Isaac Dixon character Last of Us functions as a secondary, but no less important villain, standing in Abby’s way for her half of the narrative.
What to Read Next
Little is known about Isaac Dixon character Last of Us before the Cordyceps outbreak. In The Art of The Last of Us Part II coffee table book—which contains concept art and insight into the game’s development—it’s mentioned that Isaac Dixon character Last of Us was a member of the United States Marine Corps prior to the apocalypse.
Isaac Dixon character Last of Us’s story really begins after the outbreak, as a disillusioned soldier of FEDRA who was fed up with their corruption and overwhelming control over Seattle. Eventually, Isaac Dixon character Last of Us defected from FEDRA to join the guerrilla group Washington Liberation Front, with its founders Emma and Jason Patterson in the very early days of the W.L.F.
After FEDRA killed the Pattersons, the surviving Wolves elected Isaac Dixon character Last of Us as their new leader. His strategic warfare allowed the Wolves to regrow and accumulate greater numbers. Under Isaac Dixon character Last of Us’s leadership, the W.L.F. finally fought back against FEDRA and took control of Seattle. Soon, the Wolves found the hard way what it takes to keep law and order in a post-apocalyptic world. Though the W.L.F. lived up to their promises of taking care of Seattle residents with food, medicine, and electricity, they also imposed their own brand of control over Seattleites.
Eventually, the Wolves came into conflict with the Seraphites, a.k.a. “Scars,” led by a charismatic woman known only as “The Prophet” who claimed to have visions of a new way for mankind. After some fighting, the two groups agreed to a ceasefire. Their uneasy peace quickly ended after a group of Seraphite teenagers were killed after provoking a W.L.F. patrol. As their war reignited, the W.L.F. eventually arrested the Prophet, and under Isaac Dixon character Last of Us’s command, carried out her execution.
That brings us to the events of The Last of Us Part II, which is more or less the same story in the HBO adaptation. We’ll refrain from spoilers of the video game, as doing so might also spoil the TV show. But just know that Isaac Dixon character Last of Us, the character in The Last of Us, is not a threat to take lightly.
How Will Isaac Dixon character Last of Us Factor Into the Rest of The Last of Us Season 2?
Abby may be Ellie’s enemy. But if season 2 is anything like The Last of Us Part II, then that means Abby may not be the show’s “villain” for much longer. Though season 2 has thus far spent most of its time with Ellie (Bella Ramsey), Abby will almost certainly rise in importance, and maybe even gain audience sympathy, too. (Excluding hardcore Pedro Pascal fans.) But audiences still need something to root against, and the Infected are just too primal and too primitive to be a worthy season-long adversary.
That leaves someone like Isaac Dixon Character Last of Us, the character from The Last of Us, to function as a true antagonist. While Isaac Dixon Character Last of Us isn’t a mustache-twirling bad guy either, his control over the fully-armed W.L.F. and intent to wipe out all Seraphites make him dangerous.
