Francis Cole (Earth-96)

"I guess you were right. Trying to leave this town will kill me. Still better than spending another day with you."

- - Frank to Tig Trager

Francis "Frank" Cole was Tig Trager's former boyfriend and fellow biker. He lived alongside Tig in Lincoln, Massachusetts, where they survived against the Infected on their own.

Biography
Frank was described by Tig Trager to James Logan as "someone he cared about", not specifying their homosexual relationship. However, the couple had numerous fights and confrontations, as Cole had become tired of Tig's survival methods in Lincoln. He wanted to leave the city and never return, but Trager wanted to continue his smuggling.

Because Tig didn't want to listen to him, Frank left his boyfriend, and departed, stealing multiple supplies from Tig, including a car battery. However, on his way, Cole was attacked and bitten by an Infected, who he managed to kill.

Hopeless, Frank killed himself to not succumb to the Cordyceps Brain Infection. But before it, he left a letter saying how much he hated Bill.

Personality
Frank was courageous and adventurous, much like Tig Trager. However, he grew to hate living in Lincoln with the fear of being infected.
