Shades

Leaving aside the fact that Shades might work for someone bigger than Diamondback, the character is excellently portrayed by Theo Rossi. Maybe it’s the mystery, maybe it’s sleaziness, maybe it’s something else, but Shades stole the show each time he was on screen.

With villains named Cottonmouth and Diamondback, he was the real snake among them all. Whether he was having a conversation, or he was advising, or he was lashing out like a trapped snake, I guess I’m not the only one who believes that there is more to this character than the show has let us know.

He’ll be back for the second season, together with Diamondback and Mariah Stokes.
