Nathan is a supporting protagonist turned secondary antagonist in the Crossed: Badlands story "The Golden Road".

History[]

Issue #1[]

Eight college students are invited by a famous author known as Gideon Welles to his home in order to get a chance to be in one of his next novels. After arriving, Gideon tells the eight of them that while they're staying in his home they must do everything he says without question or else risk being kicked out, as well as allow him to say whatever he wants about them in his book. After taking everyone's phones to cut off contact from the outside world, he gives them all character sheets they're all meant to follow no matter what happens and share nothing of what's on their papers until they leave.

Later that night at dinner, Nathan intentionally spills wine on Jae's shirt as a test to see if he'll stay in character and orders Jae to assault him until he has to be carried away. Then, Gideon has Clooney read his profile sheet out loud in order to humiliate him in front of his girlfriend Tabitha with his character's pathetic personality and falls so deep into it that he actually vomits as his profile said he would do when forced to talk in front of several people.

On the other side of town, Sheriff Lorna Bishop several police officers board a train suspected of holding "terrorists" who killed the conductor as well as 100 other people on board, but only find that The Crossed have killed, mutilated, and raped all but one elderly woman inside.

Issue #2[]

The next morning, Gideon gathers everyone to the farm on his property where he tells them that while all of them have eaten meat before, none of them ever killed for their food, then introduces them to one of the pigs before stringing it up by its hind legs and ordering the group to all take a turn in stabbing it for tonight's dinner. After offering the knife to Wendy first, a supposed vegan, she gladly kills the pig to spite her mother who wanted to control her from the moment she was born.

Everyone except Clooney follows her in killing the pig and later that night at dinner, Clooney steps outside for fresh air where the staff member Nathan tells him that Gideon is only doing these sadistic "challenges" because controlling and manipulating people sexually excites him, then offers to take Clooney away from the mansion to which he agrees.

Meanwhile, Sheriff Lorna has escaped the train station and rushes over a pre-school overrun by The Crossed in order to save her niece Philly as well as Philly's friend Tara. As she's leaving with the both of them however, Tara gets overrun by The Crossed and Lorna chooses to shoot Tara in the head, mercifully saving her from their torture.

Issue #3[]

Some time later, Clooney finally takes up Nathan's offer on leaving Gideon's home for a while, where Nathan tells him that Gideon's entire past is a lie since he's made up new backstories for himself in his autobiographies and interviews. Nathan tells him that Gideon either used to be the son of a travelling evangelist that "cured homosexuals" or was born into a commune not knowing who his parents were and killed a drug dealer one day to steal his weed in order to become rich.

As they continue driving, The Crossed suddenly throw one of their own out in front of Nathan's car and drive off after discovering everyone is being attacked. A survivor forces Nathan to pull over and turns on the radio, where a reporter says that The Crossed have attacked every state in the US as well as every other country in the world. As they continue driving, the survivor shoots the ear off of a passing Crossed man in his own car, who retaliates by flicking his blood into the man's eye and infecting him. Clooney and Nathan leave the car, but the man spits onto Nathan's hand and nearly kills the both of them until Officer Lorna kills him, telling them she'll meet up with them at Gideon's home later.

Nathan leaves with Clooney where he tells him that Gideon had actually planned for Clooney leaving into town and planned "a surprise" for when he returned, and Nathan suddenly turns after crashing the car, chasing Clooney until he's locked inside a freezer near Gideon's farm. Clooney leaves to find Gideon and discovers an orgy where he's having sex with his girlfriend. Clooney knows that Gideon believes he'll stay in character and do nothing about it, but actually plans on "f*cking him up".

Issue #4[]

Clooney begins his revenge on Gideon by first not giving him the reaction he wanted by simply flipping him off and walking away without saying anything, as well as getting some revenge on his former friend Jared for also having sex with his girlfriend by locking him inside the freezer with Nathan where he's killed and raped by the infected Nathan. Later that night, Clooney steals one of Gideon's cars and steals it to drive it over to the bridge connecting to his house where he sets in on fire to destroy it and cut off the only way The Crossed can get to them.

The next morning, Gideon angrily confronts Clooney about destroying his property, not wanting him to react this way at all. When Gideon asks where Nathan is, Clooney brings him to the freezer in hopes that Nathan will kill him, but as soon as they're ambushed Gideon stabs Nathan in the eye with a blade hidden inside his cane. Unaffected, Nathan claims that he is "not using that part of my brain" and still tries to kill Gideon, but Tabitha frees him before Nathan is locked back inside. Infuriated for trying to kill him, Gideon demands that Clooney explain his actions to him.

Issue #5[]

After confessing what he did, Clooney is locked up inside of Gideon's sex dungeon and unbeknownst to everyone else, he snuck in one of the severed fingers of Nathan from when Gideon chopped off his hand with an axe and plans to use it to infect Gideon with it by stirring his coffee with it. Just then, Christos and Jae bring Clooney up to where the others have been preparing for The Crossed to attack where Gideon tells him he's going to leave in the dungeon for trying to have him killed without a weapon to defend himself.

Knowing they can't cross the river without drowning, The Crossed drive several cars into the river separating Gideon's home from the mainland to make an impromptu bridge, many of whom are locals who want revenge on Gideon for mocking them repeatedly in the past for injuring themselves for the insurance money. Watching all of this unfold, Sheriff Lorna abandons her plans to stay with Gideon's group and plans to find a new home for herself and Philly. Lorna spots two nearby crossed however and after dispatching the first one, the Crossed man's body collapses onto Lorna after she shot him in the head, which bleeds into her mouth and infects her. Philly is forced to shoot her aunt in the head with her gun and then takes a raft down the river where her fate remains uncertain.

With the survivors falling left and right as they attack the manor and Nathan being freed from the freezer to lead The Crossed throughout the property, Clooney decides it's better to willingly infect himself with the C-Virus than die by their hands, and then proceeds to rape and kill Tabitha after she tries rescuing him. After Nathan gets revenge on Jae for beating him earlier by raping him, The Crossed corner Gideon where they infect him and then mock his suffering by cutting off all of his limbs. The story ends with a quote from Edgar Allen Poe:

And darkness and decay and the red death held illimitable dominion over all.
~ Edgar Allen Poe, The Masque of the Red Death.
