dewline1. Comment on this post.
2. I will give you a letter.
3. Think of 5 fictional characters whose name starts with that letter and post their names and your comments on these characters in your LJ.

mdg1 gave me the letter "G" in honour of ruckawriter, whose work we both enjoy reading.
So...
1. G.W. Bridge, Agent of SHIELD. Particularly since Matt Fraction set him upon the Punisher's trail over the last couple of years. I think we've learned more about G.W. as a person since the new Punisher War Journal title started than in all the years since Messrs. Liefeld and Nicieza introduced us to him.
2 and 3. Guardian of Alpha Flight. It should count as two people since Heather and James Hudson, that first couple of Marvel Universe Canadian superheroics, have used the alias over the years. And both still deserve better than they got in New Avengers: the Collective. Here's hoping they get it. Especially since it looks like Michael Pointer's determined to be his own man back in his hometown of North Pole, Alaska, since having been used as the unwilling murder weapon against the two of them in that story arc.
4. Garak, from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Yes, I know he's got a first name. He was introduced to us all as simply "Garak", and his first name has been so rarely used even by those closest to him, whether on TV or in the novels that have followed, much to my continuing delight. The man is unpredictable in ways that can be both reassuring and frightening all at once in the right situations.
5. Gotham City - a character in its own right in the Bat-franchise. I've already spoken at length on that.
