Who is John Murphy in The 100?
The cockroach — he survives · The Sky People
John Murphy (The cockroach — he survives) is a character in The 100, part of The Sky People. John Murphy gets hanged by the camp in week one, banished in week two, and outlives nearly everybody — the dropship's bully turned the series' self-described cockroach. Murphy's moral compass is a weathervane, his loyalty transactional, his survival instinct flawless; and yet the show keeps catching him doing the right thing when no one useful is watching. The delinquent everyone wrote off becomes its most reliable redemption engine, one grudging sacrifice at a time.
