Fannish Five...

[fajrdrako]

This from fannish5 for Sept. 1: What five characters have been underutilized in canon?

1. The Vorkosigan books by Lois McMaster Bujold - Aral Vorkosigan. Yes, he's a fairly prominent character, but given how much I like him, I'd like to see him a lot more. Follow this up with more of Count Piotr Vorkosigan, and more of Ivan Vorpatril.

2. Doctor Who - Captain Jack Harkness. Only five episodes! We were robbed.

3. X-Men comics - Gambit. It doesn't help that they tried to raise his profile by giving him in own book, and it wasn't very interesting. I want to see more really good stories about Gambit, written by people who don't mind giving the character an edge.

4. Karin Lowachee's novels about The Macedon - Captain Cairo Azarcon. I just can't get enough.

5. The Pirates of the Caribbean movies - James Norrington. He's well done by in fanfic, but I'd love to see him more on the screen.
