Just like theJames Bondmovies , there ’s piddling doubt that Jack Reacher will get over the villains of any give adventure . Reacher might be wounded or placed in jeopardy , but he always succeed the day . Some of the antagonists in Lee Child’sReacherbooks can seem underwhelming since even the writer often has little interest in pretending the deed character is start to lose .

Reacher’s AM Is Leaving Behind A Trail Of Dead Bodies
Season 2’s AM is a departure from his Bad Luck and Trouble counterpart
AM is the more mysterious opposition of the pair , since little is roll in the hay about his past or where he came from . He ’s known as AM because all of the pseudonyms he use , like Azhari Mahoud or Alan Mason , start with those initial . He ’s often described as a ghost since he move through the world practically unobserved , and in some ways , AM is a saturnine mirror to Reacher himself .

Reacher season 2 drops new episode every Friday on Amazon Prime Video .
This makes him more lowering than his novel opposite number - but it also makes him appear boggy . In episode 6 , for instance , AM kills a pig because she ’s about to give him a ticket . In one sentiency , it was bad fate on his part , since he hold back off in a restroom and came out to find a police officer looking over his vehicle . That said , the only reason this is an issue is that AM murdered a plastic surgeon - alongside his writing table - in a previous episode to steal his identity , so once his vehicle detail are entered into the organization , he has little choice but to kill the law officer too .
AM Is Not The “Ghost” Reacher Keeps Claiming He Is
He keeps making himself MORE visible
There ’s almost a dark clowning to be made out of AM ’s lean of errors onReacher , and how his bodycount mounts because of them . AM was forced to travel incognito when the authority became cognizant of his presence , but there had to be a less involved way of life to drop off under the radiolocation than killing a large operating surgeon . Part of what ’s suppose to make AM a scourge is nobody recognise what he look like and that he can move around undetected , but with his latest killing , that title is becoming backbreaking to take .
Season 2 of the Amazon Prime Video series Reacher features many new mould member – read on to learn more about every new and recall character .
AM ’s screening being blow is the fault of the hundred-and-tenth exhibit his faux identities , which forced him to improvise a new itinerary to New York to complete the " Little Wing " sale . Even so , if AM is the " touch " everyone preserve claiming , get out multiple corpses in his wake is the bad possible fashion to travel undetected . He may still be ahead of his pursuers , but he ’s get out a very obvious lead in his viewing .
Why Reacher Had To Change AM From The Book
He was a little too mysterious in the source material
Making AM more of a physical scourge is one additionReacherseason 2hadto make . InBad Luck and Trouble , he ’s this loom threat late in the background who only really appears in the last chapters . If the show was true to the source textile - where AM travels under faux identities and generally not doing much - viewer would probably forget there ’s another villain besides Langston .
Reacher had to make AM more lethal - even at the price of undoing his liquid manipulator reputation . To the show ’s credit , it ’s not peeling back the mantle on his backstory either . Some film maker might have been tempted to give AM an blood line or even link him to the 110th in some convoluted way , butReacherhas - so far - avoided that route . Now they ’ve made him more of a forcible adversary , the question rest whether he and the titular hero will jar in the finale too .
