Micke character analysis

The character ofMicke is very complicated. At the start of the play he seems like a standard bully. This is shown by the way that he treats Oskar in the locker room. The way he calls him Piggy and tells him to squeal like a pig. However as the play progresses we see that he is actually copying Johnny. I believe this to be because he is actually afraid of Johnny and doesnt want to be bullied himself. Mickes true nature is shown when Oskar is in the sandpit. Micke just wants him to leave so that johnny doesnt see him. He says to Oskar 'you dont help yourself. You know that?' This shows that Micke doesnt want to Oskar to get hurt by Johnny. However in later scenes we see that Micke will not stand up to Johnny and will help Johnny push Oskar through the ice later in the play. In act two Micke has a nice scene with Oskar where he is trying to convince him to come back to strenght training. I think that what he says in this scene is sincere and actually wants to be friends with Oskar but his goal is to get Oskar to the training so Jimmy can get back at Oskar for hurting Jimmy. I think Micke only went along with this is because of Jimmy. If it was Johnny's idea, I dont think Micke would have helped. I think it is actually quite sad when Micke dies at the end as he never wanted to hurt Oskar and only went along with it due to fear and peer preasure.
