Eddie Munson Is Already Fixing Stranger Things' Jonathan Byers Failure
WARNING! Spoilers ahead for Stranger Things season 4, volume 1!

As the cast of Stranger Things grows faster than those who perish, the Netflix show has presented itself with an issue of how to balance the stories of the new figures with the long-established staples of the narrative. Two characters who have been failed by Stranger Things’ character problems are brothers Jonathan and Will Byers, who are primarily sidelined in season 4.
Alongside Dmitri (aka Enzo), Vecna (aka Number One), and Argyle, Stranger Things season 4’s most important new character is Joseph Quinn’s Eddie Munson.

After Dustin steps in to help his friend who he knows to be innocent, Eddie ends up joining the older teens in battling the Upside Down’s creatures with Steve, Nancy, and Robin.
