They also been adapted by various mediums, TV, Movies etc.

I Wonder If The Joker Will Ever Jump Through The Wall. I Would Laugh My Butt Off! XD


Oh lord, I wouldn't, that guy is on my list of "People I really, really DON'T want to see come through the wall". He's above the Daleks on the list, but below Cthulhu.

Your strange way of speaking aside, good sir, you're correct: there are a LOT of them, probably a great many of whom we've missed. I'm hoenstly surprised we haven't seen more of them in the news by now.


Sorry for the double post but I agree with you Scarab even though I am a Batman fan The Joker I do not want coming through the wall. Because then we would have to deal with a Insane murderous psychopath with a really high body count :shock:

But he doesn't fit our current pattern now, does he?
We don't have any comic book character so far to set the precedend... So we're safe. For now.

May Haruhi help us, or Celestia, or Madoka, or The Doctor, or...you get the idea.

If I would pray to anything to help us with this ordeal it would be to Azar.

What if the reason all the characters so far originate in works based on the written word or oral traditions is because there is no definitive appearance for them. The problem of, say, Buffy coming through is she'd look just like Sarah Michelle Geller. But with literary characters, there is no definitive appearance. Thoughts?

Makes too much sense to be false. :gurt: I think that means the film characters are out of the question until all rules of logic and fiction collapse. Which may mean the film characters are coming soon... :?

Until you mentioned it, I had not realized my theory is based off that trope. Still, let's hope the patterns hold. If Buffy doesn't want to go back, I doubt we could stop her.

This came to mind when someone mentioned Dracula. Before we worry about Dracula, we may have to worry about his predecessor first. Yes, the lesbian vampire herself. Carmilla. I believe she's public-domain as well, though I'm not very sure.. But ah, what are the odds? *tempting fate* Although if Dracula comes along, it would be simple since everyone knows his weaknesses.. And on that note, I wonder how badly the Wall will be affected if a fictional gets killed :?:

She's much less well known. If a vampire comes through, I would expect either Dracula or Mina Harker. Van Helsing is also a possibility.

If it's any other vampire, please let it be Alucard.

Yes. I swear to God and Celestia that if anything Twilight-related (I.E, Sparkly "Vampires", Shirtless "Werewolves", etc.) comes through, I will stop being a part of the ARG.

I'm dead serious.

Mina Harker is not a vampire. And Abraham van Helsing is an old man. I would rather have Johnathan Harker or Arthur Holmwood come through.

I'm sorry sir, but ever since THE TROPER WHO SHALL NOT BE NAMED's incident, I have thought about this.

NO TWILIGHT, unless it has a "Sparkle" after the name.
