Also he is the only character (that i can think of) that spans all time and so can rightfully hold the title!

lordoftime · 8th November 2006, 03:00 AM

True as a Time Lord, he walks in eternity.....

SteveR · 9th November 2006, 07:47 PM

TV: Zaphod, Kryten, River or Jane (Firefly), Quark and Garak of course.

Book: Tanner Mirabel (Chasm City)

Film: The Alien

Somehow I am finding the worst character of all time easier to answer!

Wesley Crusher, Wesley Crusher and Wasley bloomin' Crusher.

Cheers

I quite liked Hudson (Bill Paxton) from Aliens. He had all the good lines, and a great delivery, and he was the most loveable colonial marine wienie you could imagine, right down to the barbed-wire tattoo.

Zaphod Beeblebrox is the first character to come to mind. The Hitchhiker books were boring without him.

Teir · 9th November 2006, 11:24 PM

The Doctor

Nesacat · 10th November 2006, 07:46 AM

As far as television is concerned it would have to be the Doctor. He walks in time, he walks alone and his people have been destroyed yes he strives to keep helping to save others.... And I'd like to visit the Tardis please.

Judge Dredd, but only from 2000AD comic, not the film version.

nixie · 10th November 2006, 10:21 AM

Nope Johnny Alpha (strontium dog) was better

Harpo · 10th November 2006, 10:28 AM

Maybe so, but SD started in Starlord comic (as did Rojaws and Hammerstein) which was later merged with what I still think of as "Two-Fashioned Eddie" (after hearing a customer in a newsagent call it that in 1977)

nixie · 10th November 2006, 10:35 AM

Yes it did, Wolfie Smith also carried over to 2000AD for a while.

Nesacat · 10th November 2006, 11:09 AM

Can't pin a favourite character in a book down though. There are several that are favourites at one time or another depending largely on what life and me are doing together at the time.

Oh yes to Judge Dredd from the comics. used to read those for quite a long time.

bruno-1012 · 10th November 2006, 03:37 PM

Film - Klatuu

Books - Vimes

Comics - Judge Dredd

TV - Andromeda ....just cos

Paige Turner · 10th November 2006, 06:00 PM

Comics? Gotta be Swamp Thing.

The tragedy.
The pathos.
The muck…

I think I have to go re-read them now.

Malcom Reynolds, all the other characters reflect parts of his personality that he's lost

Does Vimes count? technically not Sci-Fi methinks. He's got my vote too though!
