it-zine: Bill Denbrough, the Leader by Campbell Victoria Bill Denbrough was the unspoken leader of the Losers’ Club. Although no one knew exactly why, it only felt natural to listen to his guidance. When they were lost, confused, or in need of a decision maker, they reflexively looked to Bill. Perhaps it was his ideas that had enticed them. He had an analytical writer’s mind–one that pondered over things more than others did. He not only saw the world, he also saw what it could become and what actions he’d have to take to make it so. Perhaps it was his reckless courage that made him a leader. If he was afraid, he never allowed it to hinder his actions and he was not embarrassed by it. Every antagonistic figure that entered his life was faced. Every battle, fought. Perhaps, they were willing to follow him because he had lost the most and was, therefore, the most emotionally invested in stopping It. Losing a sibling had a way of generating powerful emotions in someone. Bill knew how to direct those emotions into a cause he felt strongly for. Whatever the reason, the others found Bill to be a suitable leader. They would argue with him when they had to. They would fight against him if the situation called for it. But more than anything, they were prepared to follow him to their death.Without Bill, they knew they’d never stop the vicious cycle of Pennywise the Clown.They’d never be able to stop It.
