Lt. Col. Sullivan

Character from Stranger Things by The Duffer Brothers

A ruthless military officer hunting Eleven in season four — convinced she is the cause of the Hawkins disasters and willing to kill a teenager to eliminate what he sees as a national security threat.

Lt. Col. Sullivan represents the institutional response to the Upside Down threat — eliminate the anomaly, contain the damage, classify everything. He hunts Eleven with military resources and genuine conviction that she is responsible for the deaths in Hawkins. He is wrong, but he is competent, and competent men with wrong convictions and military authority are perhaps the most dangerous antagonists of all. He killed Brenner's NINA project team, nearly captured Eleven, and would have executed her if given the chance — all while believing he was saving the country.

Appearance

Imposing and rigid in military dress, with a shaved head, hard eyes, and the bearing of a man who has never once questioned an order or his own judgment. He wears his uniform like a declaration of authority.
