Tim

 

Tim is a member of the Hangman’s Horde. He is first seen in the Annex in an early panel. Barnes, an apparent neighbor of his and Ricky’s, says that he has been "called in,” and Tim says he can cover Barnes’ shift “watching the fires.”

That night, Tim is watching fires of a different kind alongside the other members of the Horde. Hank and the Hangman’s Horde have arrived and are razing the slum.

When Ricky says, “I might have Marcus’ money,” thinking that Hank is Abarth, Hank concedes to Tim, “You’re right. Marcus’ money,” as though there had been some discussion of which slumlord controlled this neighborhood.

When Ricky reaches for the pamphlet in his satchel, Hank commands Tim to retrieve it from him. Tim takes possession of Ricky’s satchel and leaves with the Horde when they drive back across the frontier toward the Wilderness.
