A trope can't be partly subverted. Also, indentation.


* HateSink: The Governor is pretty much a personification of every single evil and cruel quality that a human being can have. It's even written on his character small intro.
** This is subverted to an extent in the novels, as it’s shown his backstory and shows just like any other person in the apocalypse, lost so many people and slowly became a shell of his former self.

to:

* {{Sadist}}: Just ask [[AnArmAndALeg Rick]] or [[SexSlave Michonne]]. Cruelty is second nature to him, even though it would be much more pragmatic to not torture and dominate other people in the apocalyptic setting.

Heel Face Mole is no longer a trope

While we can use redirects (like The Smart Girl), we're not supposed to edit trope names. Also, Kill Em All is no longer a trope and I hid an example with no context.


* KillEmAll: His iconic quote when Woodbury attacks the prison with a tank.



* [[TheSmartGuy The Smart Girl]]: Becomes this for Rick's group.

Badass Mustache and Badass Beard were merged into Manly Facial Hair. Examples that don't fit or are zero-context are removed. Having facial hair is not enough to qualify. To qualify for Manly Facial Hair, the facial hair must be associated with manliness in some way. Please read the trope description before re-adding to make sure the example qualifies.


* BadassMustache: He sports an impressive horseshoe job.

Added DiffLines:

* {{Narcissist}}: This can literally be his name as the governor has killed many innocent people and didn't even care that there were children in the prison as he even told his soldiers to kill them too, this gets him killed by Lily.

I don’t think that example fits the new meaning. (I don’t even think it fit the old one.)


* RealityEnsues: [[spoiler: During the final assault on the prison, he never gets a showdown with Rick and ends up being killed by a random {{Mook}} who was rightfully pissed off about the death of baby Judith]].
