Logan (Fear the Walking Dead)

Logan (d. 9 December 2013) was an American trucker and businessman of the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Prior the spread of the Wildfire virus in 2010, Logan and Clayton worked together as co-owners of the Texas-based C&L Freight Services trucking company. When the apocalypse came, the pair of them took refuge in the clothing factory Wittington's Denim Company. Logan devised the "take what you need, leave what you don't" boxes, prior to his disillusionment following his failure to save a woman's life. Logan subsequently was contacted by Virginia of the Pioneers, who contracted him to locate oil.
By 2013, Morgan Jones had taken possession of the denim factory and had taken up Clayton's mission to aid the surviving population of Texas. Logan, seeking control of Clayton's oilfields, tricked Morgan and his group into abandoning the factory so that he could take possession of it unopposed.Here to Help - Andrew Chambliss & Ian Goldberg - Fear the Walking Dead S5 E01 - AMC - Airdate 2 June 2019 - Retrieved 14 December 2024 He and his group spent time attempting to persuade Morgan's group into revealing the location of Clayton's oilfields.Is Anybody Out There? - Michael Alaimo - Fear the Walking Dead S5 E08 - AMC - Airdate 21 July 2019 - Retrieved 14 December 2024Channel 4 - David Johnson - Fear the Walking Dead S5 E09 - AMC - Airdate 11 August 2019 - Retrieved 14 December 2024You're Still Here - Mallory Westfall & Alex Delyle - Fear the Walking Dead S5 E11 - AMC - Airdate 25 August 2019 - Retrieved 14 December 2024Ner Tamid - Andrew Chambliss & Ian Goldberg - Fear the Walking Dead S5 E12 - AMC - Airdate 1 September 2019 - Retrieved 14 December 2024 After attempting to force Luciana Galvez to refine gasoline for him, Logan was abandoned by his group in the midst of a walker attack.
