Mike, one of the lead characters of Netflix’s Skull Island, fights alongside Charlie and Annie to defeat the sea monster. However, his father, Hiro, dies in the process.
Netflix‘s Skull Island, an action anime series created by Brian Duffield, is the fifth installment and the first TV series to be set in the “MonsterVerse” created by Legendary and Warner Bros. Two groups of survivors who have been shipwrecked and have ended themselves on the titular island are the center of the story. The sea monster that caused the shipwrecks is still on the island, making it impossible for them to leave.
One of the most significant characters in the series is Mike. The boat that Charlie‘s father pilots is owned by his father. Although Mike and Charlie are close friends, Mike is happy with his life on the boat while Charlie wants to depart for college. Well, let’s know everything about Mike and what happens to him in detail.
Previously, we touched on if Peri Gilpin and Betty Gilpin are related to each other.
Mike Is One of the Protagonists of the Skull Island Whose Life Goes Upside Down After the Sea Monster Kills His Father!
Irene recruited Mike and his father, Hiro, to find her daughter in the first episode of Netflix’s Skull Island. They approach a GI to inquire about the undiscovered islands for this reason. The GI cautions them against visiting these islands because of the dangers that may be present there. Even Mike and his father are informed by him that visitors leave the island and never come back. When Hiro passes away on the voyage, this turns out to be practically prophetic.

Following the disaster, Mike finds himself on the beach and discovers an angry wound on his body caused by the sea monster’s use of electricity on him. While they struggle to live in the Skull Island forests, he keeps Charlie in the dark about what has happened to him. Later in the series, in order to allow Charlie time to flee and because he thinks Charlie’s father, Cap, is in danger, Mike gives himself up to Irene and her mercenaries. Then he learns that things are not as horrible as he first thought.
Up until that point, Mike was unaware that Irene was Annie‘s real mother. Mike’s health progressively deteriorates while he stays with the mercenaries. Cap and Irene treat Mike with the aloe vera-like material they extracted from an animal on Skull Island when he becomes sick.
He seemed to have some comfort from it, if briefly. Charlie believes that the only way they can save Mike is by leaving the island and locating an experienced doctor when he sees Mike in this state. However, the sea monster annihilates anything that dares to approach the island. Kong, the ruler of Skull Island, and Charlie come up with a strategy to kill the sea monster.
The necklace that appears to mean a lot to Kong is taken by Charlie, Annie, and Dog when they visit the ruined site in the forest. Kong pursues them after a furious reaction because of this. Annie and Dog guide Kong to the shore, where a fight of the titans between Kong and the sea monster begins, despite Charlie being taken away by the mysterious masked people.
Mike uses a flare gun to protect Cap from a huge centipede despite his condition. Cap is Mike’s only other father figure after Hiro. Cap assured him earlier in the series that even if his father was gone, he still had family members who loved him. Cap said there would always be a place in his family for him.
Mike fires the flair gun and hits the ground, leading Cap to run over and help him. Before taking up the boy, he begs him to remain with him. We have seen them only once more this season. It won’t be unreasonable to assume that Mike, Charlie, and Cap made it back to civilization if Irene and Annie did as well. Mike would likely still be alive if he had managed to escape in time. Or maybe those three are still on the island and Mike was saved by the disguised individuals.
