Warning: Contains SPOILERS for Stranger Things season 4's finale.
The fate and whereabouts of Murray Bauman in Stranger Things season 4, volume 2's ending are left unclear, although it's thankfully unlikely there's a dark twist being lined up.

And, after fights with an untrustworthy pilot and some dangerous dalliances with demogorgons, the trio — along with Enzo and Yuri — manage to make it off Soviet soil and head back to the United States.
It had always seemed likely that this is where Stranger Things season 4's Russia story was headed, especially with Hopper heading home, though it wasn't always clear if everyone in the party would make it.

Once the action returns to Hawkins, viewers get to see both Hopper and Joyce reunite with Eleven, albeit with joy that's very much short-lived as the Upside Down begins to take over the town in Stranger Things season 4, volume 2's ending. Still, they're all back together as a family unit, but not everyone is accounted for.

It begs the question of where
